Maintenance
To ensure the longevity and hygiene of your MEGA BLOKS Green Town Grow & Protect Farm set, follow these simple maintenance guidelines:
- Cleaning: Wipe blocks with a damp cloth and mild soap as needed. Rinse thoroughly and air dry. Do not immerse electronic components (if any) in water.
- Storage: Store blocks in a clean, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures to prevent warping or fading.
- Inspection: Periodically inspect all pieces for any signs of wear or damage. Discard any broken pieces to ensure child safety.
Troubleshooting
While MEGA BLOKS sets are designed for durability and ease of use, here are some common considerations:
- Blocks Not Connecting: Ensure that the blocks are aligned correctly and apply gentle, even pressure. If a block is warped, it may not connect properly.
- Missing Pieces: Carefully check the packaging and play area. If pieces are genuinely missing upon initial opening, please contact customer support.
- Difficulty Disconnecting: Some connections may be tighter than others. Gently wiggle the blocks apart rather than pulling forcefully to avoid damage.
