Maintenance

To ensure the longevity and cleanliness of your Bosch Car Repair Station:

• Cleaning: Wipe down the playset with a damp cloth and mild soap as needed. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
• Storage: Store the playset in a dry, cool place away from direct sunlight to prevent material degradation.
• Inspection: Periodically check all connections and parts for looseness or damage. Tighten any loose screws on the car or station components using the provided screwdriver.

Troubleshooting

If you encounter any issues with your Bosch Car Repair Station, consider the following:

• Car Wheels Detaching: If the car's wheels frequently detach during play, ensure the screws holding them are tightened sufficiently with the provided screwdriver. Over-tightening is not necessary, but a firm connection is required for the wheels to remain attached during rolling.
• Loose Components: If any parts of the station feel loose after assembly, re-examine the connection points and press them firmly into place. The design allows for easy assembly and disassembly, but secure connections are key for stability during play.
• Car Lift Malfunction: Ensure the screwdriver is properly engaged with the lift mechanism when attempting to raise or lower the car. Check for any obstructions.
