- 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.
Continual abuse will affect operation. When rolling the
screen into the housing, ensure the mesh rolls evenly.
Retracting the product with creases in the screen can cause
wrinkles.
- 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 is exhausted.

- 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 Phantom's greaseless silicone spray
can restore smooth operation.
- 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
against the track.
- 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.
