- Color Guidance: Pay close attention to the color indications in the instructions to correctly place the black, white, and green blocks to form the panda's features and bamboo.

If you encounter difficulty, retrace your steps and verify that all pieces are correctly positioned according to the visual guide.
Care and Maintenance
- Cleaning: To clean your assembled nanoblock model, gently wipe it with a dry, soft cloth. For stubborn dust, a slightly damp cloth can be used, but avoid excessive moisture. Do not use harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
- Storage: Store the model in a stable location away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures to prevent discoloration or deformation of the plastic blocks.
- Disassembly: If disassembling, carefully separate the blocks to avoid damage. Store loose blocks in a secure container to prevent loss.
