Once your remote is programmed, you will be able
to operate and control the position and adjustment
of your new window coverings with a touch of a button.
You will be able to open/close and adjust the tilt position
of the vanes.
By setting up GROUPS and FAVORITES you will be able to
perform all functions.
GROUPS
Joining a window covering to a GROUP is
what connects a window covering to an
individual remote and allows the remote
to communicate with the window cover-
ing, so the window covering will follow the
remote commands. A window covering
will not operate with the remote, un-
less it is assigned to a GROUP.
Each LEVOLOR remote offers 3 GROUP assignments, desig-
nated by buttons numbered 1, 2, and 3 on the remote.
A GROUP can consist of a single window covering, or be
comprised of multiple window coverings, assigned to that
particular GROUP button. Window coverings assigned to the
same GROUP, will operate at the same time, when functions
are selected on the remote. There is no limit to the number of
window coverings you can assign to a given GROUP.
If you want a window covering to operate independently of other
window coverings, it must be added to a GROUP of its own.
A window covering can be added to more than one GROUP on
the same remote (or separate remotes).
Once the window coverings have been joined to a GROUP, the
remote will operate your window covering.
See page 8 "Join a window covering to a group".
Remote Control Guide Remote Control Guide
FAVORITES
Setting FAVORITES stores a preferred position
for each individual window covering, and recalls
stored position when the FAVORITES button is
selected. (Favorites button is designated by the heart ♥ sym-
bol.) Each window covering can have ONLY ONE FAVORITE
position. Upon arrival, each of your window coverings will be
set to the default FAVORITE position, which is half way down
with vanes closed. You can re-program each shade to your
FAVORITE position.
NOTE: the FAVORITE position for a given window covering is
stored in the window covering itself. The favorite position is
always the same regardless of which GROUP or GROUPS the
window covering is assigned to or which remote you use. If
you set a FAVORITE with one remote on one shade, and then
overwrite it with another FAVORITE position with a different
remote, you will only have the FAVORITE as set by the last
remote. From now on, any remotes programmed to that
shade will trigger the same FAVORITE position.
See page 9 "Set a FAVORITE position".
MORE THAN ONE REMOTE
Each motorized window covering can be ordered with or with-
out a remote. If you chose to have multiple remotes you have
two options in how each remote will function.
1. Additional remote
• Can be programmed differently from original remote.
• Can control a different set of window coverings and/
or different GROUPS.
2. Duplicate remote
• An exact duplicate of original remote.
• Must control the same set of window coverings
and/or GROUPS.
See page 9 for instructions on creating duplicate remote.
TRAVEL LIMIT/STOPS
A term used to describe the points when a window covering
stops along its travels. The window covering should travel
the full length of the window opening and stop. If the window
covering does not travel as expected, these limits can be
adjusted by resetting the window covering travel limits.
See page 12 "Resetting the Shade".

Replacing Batteries Trouble Shooting
Remote Control Guide Remote Control Guide
BATTERY REPLACEMENT
Replacing the batteries in the remote will not cause the loss
of any window covering programming, including GROUPS and
FAVORITE. The remote uses two Alkaline AAA batteries.
To replace the batteries in the remote:
1. Slide open back of battery compartment.
2. Gently lift and remove the old batteries. To remove
batteries use a small screwdriver or fingernail to lift
battery and remove from slot.
3. Insert new batteries, be sure to align correct positive
and negative ends and press into place.
4. Align and replace the back cover onto the backside
of the remote.
NOTE: When the window covering starts moving slowly,
the batteries in the window covering battery pack may
need to be replaced. More than likely the batteries in the
remote are just fine.
TROUBLE SHOOTING
Problem Window Shading does not operate with the
remote control.
Solution Make sure the Indicator light on the
remote control comes on when you try to
operate the widow shading. If the Indicator
light does not come on replace the batteries
in your remote control.
Note: Shade can still operate using the
manual control button on the headrail. If the
shading doesn’t operate with the manual
control button make sure it has power. If
the shade does not have power replace the
batteries on the standard battery pack or
the satellite battery pack.
Problem The window shading does not open or close
fully or has an intermediate stop that is no
longer wanted.
Solution Make sure the operation of the shade is not
obstructed. Reset the shading as described
in “Reset Programming” on page 12.
