Operating Instructions

Plus-Plus blocks are designed for simple, intuitive connection. Each piece is a single shape, allowing for versatile construction in 2D mosaics or 3D structures.

1. Connecting Pieces: Align the "plus" shape of one block with the "plus" shape of another. Gently push them together until they interlock. The fit should be snug but not require excessive force.
2. Building 2D Designs: Lay blocks flat on a surface and connect them side-by-side to create flat patterns, pictures, or mosaics.
3. Building 3D Structures: Connect blocks at various angles to build three-dimensional objects. The unique shape allows for curves, corners, and complex forms.
4. Disassembly: To separate blocks, gently pull them apart. Avoid twisting or bending excessively to prevent damage.

Maintenance

• Cleaning: Plus-Plus blocks are washable. They can be cleaned with mild soap and water. Rinse thoroughly and air dry.
• Storage: Store blocks in their original tube or a similar container to prevent loss and keep them clean. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight or extreme temperatures.
• Inspection: Periodically check blocks for any signs of wear or damage. Discard any broken pieces to prevent potential hazards.

Troubleshooting

• Blocks not connecting easily: Ensure the blocks are aligned correctly. If they are dirty, clean them as per the maintenance instructions.
• Blocks separating too easily: This may indicate wear. If blocks no longer hold together securely, they may need to be replaced.
• Missing pieces: While this set contains 240 pieces, individual pieces can be lost. Keep all blocks in their designated storage container when not in use.
