Maintenance
To ensure the longevity and appearance of your LEGO Creator 31039 models, follow these simple maintenance guidelines:
- Cleaning: Use a soft, dry cloth to gently wipe away dust. For more thorough cleaning, use a mild soap solution and a soft brush, then rinse with clear water and air dry. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
- Storage: Store assembled models or loose bricks in a clean, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures to prevent discoloration or warping.
- Handling: Handle models carefully to prevent accidental disassembly or damage to delicate parts.
Troubleshooting
Should you encounter any issues during assembly or play, consider the following:
- Missing Pieces: Double-check the packaging and surrounding area. If a piece is genuinely missing, contact LEGO Customer Service for assistance.
- Difficulty Assembling: Refer back to the instruction manual. Ensure all pieces are correctly oriented and firmly pressed into place. Sometimes, a small error in an earlier step can affect later assembly.
- Model Instability: Verify that all connections are secure. Loose connections can lead to parts falling off during play. Re-assemble any unstable sections.
