Operating (Assembly)
Follow these steps to assemble your jigsaw puzzle:
1. Build the Border:
Start by connecting all the edge pieces to form the outer frame of the puzzle. This provides a clear boundary and helps define the puzzle's shape.
2. Assemble by Sections:
Using the bonus poster as a guide, work on distinct sections of the puzzle based on color, character, or pattern. Connect smaller groups of pieces and then integrate them into the main structure.
3. Utilize "Perfect Snap" Technology:
Buffalo Games puzzles feature "Perfect Snap" technology, ensuring each piece fits securely and tightly. If a piece doesn't fit easily, do not force it, as it may not be the correct piece.

Maintenance
Proper care ensures the longevity of your puzzle.
1. Cleaning:
To remove dust, gently wipe the assembled puzzle with a dry, soft cloth. Avoid using wet cloths or cleaning solutions, as they may damage the puzzle pieces.
2. Storage:
When not in use, store the puzzle pieces in their original box in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture. If the puzzle is assembled, consider using a puzzle mat or board for easy storage and transport.
3. Preserving Your Puzzle:
For a permanent display, you can use a puzzle adhesive or a peel-and-stick puzzle saver to secure the pieces together. Follow the instructions provided with your chosen preservation method.
