Maintenance
- Cleaning: Use a soft, dry cloth to gently wipe dust from the building blocks. For stubborn dirt, a slightly damp cloth can be used, followed by immediate drying. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
- Storage: Store the assembled model or individual blocks in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent discoloration or warping.
- Handling: Handle the model with care to prevent accidental disassembly or damage to delicate parts.
Troubleshooting
- Problem: Missing or damaged parts upon arrival.
- Solution: Contact customer support immediately. Provide details of the missing/damaged parts, and a free replacement will be arranged.
- Problem: Difficulty connecting blocks.
- Solution: Ensure the blocks are correctly oriented and aligned. Apply gentle, even pressure. If a block is consistently difficult to connect, check for any manufacturing defects or debris in the studs/holes.
- Problem: Car lift mechanism is not moving smoothly.
- Solution: Check for any misaligned gears or obstructions. Ensure all parts of the lift mechanism are correctly assembled according to the instructions. A small amount of dry lubricant (e.g., graphite powder) can be applied to the gears if necessary, but avoid oil-based lubricants.
