How to use

Pair the wand switch with a compatible Somfy motor following the motor manufacturer’s pairing procedure. Once paired, use the designated buttons to raise, lower or stop the blinds; a single-handed press controls movement and holding a button continues the motion until released. Replace the battery according to the motor or remote manual when low power is indicated to maintain reliable operation. Avoid exposing the remote to moisture and extreme temperatures to preserve its function.

Usage recommendations

Install and pair the remote at a convenient central location and test button responses after pairing. For multi-window setups, use a separate remote or a central controller if synchronized group control is required. Store spare batteries on hand and follow Somfy guidelines for maintenance and safe disposal of used batteries.
