IMPORTANT ****
KEEP TRACKS CLEAN &
LUBRICATE WITH SILICONE
SPRAY PERIODICALLY.
-
Screens
should be retracted into
protective storage
housing when not in use.
-
Spring
loaded systems may
retract suddenly. Do not
push the mesh to release
the magnet or latch. A
safety feature releases
the slide bar if the
mesh is lightly bumped.
-
Motorized
screens should be
watched during
operation. Objects left
under a motorized unit
can prevent the unit
from lowering. If this
happens, lift the slide
bar up manually, remove
the obstacle, and lower
the slide bar. If it
does not extend to a
level position, use the
remote up button and
roll up the mesh until
the slide bar is level.
Stop the unit, and then
lower it.
-
Interruption of power
can affect motorized
unit operation. Ensure
that power is still
getting to the unit by
checking circuit
breakers and ground
faults for resetting.
Remotes (in wall and
handheld) have a limited
battery life. If the
remote light does not
come on when the buttons
are depressed, the
battery needs to be
replaced.
-
Insect
screens are intended to
provide reasonable
insect control and are
not intended to provide
the retention and / or
security of objects,
animals or persons
inside or outside your
dwelling.

-
Ensure
tracks are kept free of
dirt and debris which
may cause the screen to
perform poorly. Cleaning
the tracks and
lubricating them with a
dry silicone spray can
restore smooth
operation.
DO NOT use oil, grease,
petroleum or oil base
sprays — which may
attract dirt or impair
the proper operation of
your screen(s).
-
Mesh
fabric, housing tracks
and slide bar can be
cleaned with water and a
soft brush but not with
a pressure washer. A
mild detergent like dish
soap can be used, but do
not use chemicals. After
cleaning the mesh, allow
it to dry before rolling
it back up into the
housing.
-
It is
normal for the mesh to
"sail" in certain windy
conditions. This may
cause the mesh to pull
out of the track,
however when the wind
subsides the mesh will
return to the correct
position.
-
Motorized
units should be
retracted in winds in
excess of 25 mph. Wind
load may affect the
ability of the unit to
extend or retract. The
screens should never be
used solely for the
purpose of a wind break.
