TROUBLESHOOTING
Solution
1. Check the aluminum housing to ensure it is mounted level on the mounting
surface.
2. It is necessary to have the guiding cables completely plumb, up and down.
Both the aluminum housing and the cable brackets must be installed on
the same vertical surface or plane, in order for the fabric to open and close
smoothly and evenly. Please check to ensure the guiding cable is plumb
front to back and left to right. You might need to move the cable brackets,
or shim them, to ensure they are on the same vertical plane.
Very slight lines in the fabric might be noticed near the top of the solar screen.
These are caused by clips required to secure the solar screen fabric to the
internal roller bar. This is normal and should diminish over time, under warm
conditions. This might be more pronounced under cool conditions.
Solution
1. Test the remote for proper operation; press each button on the front of the
remote, holding for 5 to 10 seconds. The LED light on the remote should
blink for at least 5 seconds. If this fails, replace the remote's battery (3V
Lithium CR2032).
2. Solar panel battery might not have enough charge to run the motor. Ensure
the solar panel has one day in the sun to recharge the battery.
The solar panel's battery charge is low. Exposure to sun will recharge the solar
panel's battery.
The solar panel's battery charge is low. Exposure to sun will recharge the solar

The solar panel's battery charge might be low, causing motor to enter "sleep"
mode. Exposure to sun for a full day will recharge the battery.
1. Remove and replace the remote's battery (3V Lithium CR2032).
a. Remove the small Phillips screw on the back of the remote,
b. Remove back cover,
c. Replace the old battery (be sure to note the battery orientation),
d. Reinstall the cover with the Phillips screw.
2. If the remote got wet,
a. Remove the back cover to allow it to dry out completely,
b. Once completely dry, replace the back cover and try again.
Note: An All Weather Remote is available for purchase .
Adjust the Up limit on your EasyShade motor. See Appendix A, Adjusting the Up
and Down Position Limits of the Motor.
If the solar screen fabric has been replaced, new Up and Down position limits
might need to be set for the motor. If so, see Appendix B, Programming the
EasyShade's Stop Position Settings.
