1. Preparation:
   • Unpack all components and verify that all parts listed in the "What's Included" section are present.
   • Organize your bricks by color and shape to facilitate easier assembly.
   • Ensure you have a clean, well-lit, and spacious work area.

5. Operating (Display and Handling)

Once assembled, your JEKCA Bernese Mountain Dog 04S sculpture is ready for display. While the interlocking system makes it sturdy, handle the model with care to preserve its integrity.

• Display: Place the sculpture on a stable, flat surface away from direct sunlight or extreme temperatures to prevent material degradation.
• Handling: When moving the model, support it from the base to avoid putting stress on individual sections.

6. Maintenance

To keep your JEKCA sculpture in optimal condition, follow these simple maintenance guidelines:

• Cleaning: Dust the model regularly with a soft, dry cloth or a soft brush. For more stubborn dirt, a slightly damp cloth can be used, but avoid excessive moisture.
• Avoid Chemicals: Do not use harsh chemicals, abrasive cleaners, or solvents, as these can damage the plastic bricks and colors.
• Storage: If disassembling for storage, keep all bricks and pins organized in a container to prevent loss.

7. Troubleshooting

If you encounter any issues during assembly or with your finished model, consider the following:

• Missing Pieces: Carefully check all packaging and the work area. If pieces are genuinely missing, contact JEKCA customer support with your product model number and details of the missing parts.
• Difficulty Connecting Bricks: Ensure the pins are aligned correctly with the holes. Apply firm, even pressure with the pin driver. Do not force pins if they are misaligned, as this can damage the bricks.
• Model Instability: Review the assembly steps, particularly those involving the base and core structure. Ensure all pins are fully inserted and that bricks are correctly oriented and connected as per the manual.
