Maintenance and Care

To keep your LEGO set in optimal condition, follow these guidelines:

• Cleaning: Use a soft, dry cloth to gently wipe dust from the bricks. For deeper cleaning, wash LEGO bricks by hand using water no warmer than 104°F (40°C) and a mild detergent. Rinse thoroughly with clear water and air dry. Avoid using hot water, harsh chemicals, or abrasive materials, as these can damage the plastic.
• Storage: Store your assembled set or individual bricks in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent discoloration and warping.
• Handling: Handle the set with care to prevent pieces from detaching or breaking.

Troubleshooting

If you encounter any issues during assembly or use, consider the following:

• Missing Pieces: Double-check the packaging and surrounding area for any small pieces that may have been overlooked. If a piece is genuinely missing, contact LEGO Customer Service for assistance.
• Loose Connections: Ensure all bricks are pressed firmly together. Sometimes, a slight adjustment can secure a connection.
• Assembly Errors: If the model does not look correct, carefully review the instruction steps where the error might have occurred and reassemble the affected section.
