Using your Como Cordless Roman Shade is easy. First, find the perfect spot for it, either inside or above the window pane. It comes ready to install right out of the package, but you'll need to do a bit of assembly as per the printed guide or online video. To operate the shade, use the cordless retraction mechanism to open and close it whenever you want. For privacy and energy - saving, let the thermal foam backing do its job. When it comes to cleaning, if there's a small spot, just dust it. You can also detach the face fabric and give it a light shake. Remember, the top face fabric detaches from the hook - and - loop fastener but can't be fully removed. Enjoy your stylish and functional roman shade!
