Safety Information
WARNING: CHOKING HAZARD - Small Parts.
- This product contains small parts and is not suitable for children under 3 years of age.
- Keep all small parts away from infants and young children to prevent accidental ingestion.
- Adult supervision is recommended for younger builders (ages 15+).
- Dispose of packaging materials properly.
Setup and Preparation
- Unboxing: Carefully open the product box. Ensure all contents are present. The box will contain bags of nanoblocks and an instruction booklet.
- Workspace: Prepare a clean, well-lit, and flat workspace. A large, stable surface is recommended to prevent loss of small pieces.
- Sorting (Optional but Recommended): Due to the large number of pieces (approximately 2500) and their small size, sorting the blocks by color and shape before starting assembly can significantly aid the building process. Use small containers or sorting trays if available.
- Review Instructions: Before beginning, familiarize yourself with the instruction booklet. Pay attention to the symbols, color codes, and step-by-step diagrams.

Building Process
The nanoblock Eiffel Tower Deluxe Edition is an advanced model requiring precision and patience. Follow the included detailed instructions carefully for optimal results.
- Step-by-Step Assembly: The instruction booklet provides visual, step-by-step diagrams. Each step illustrates which blocks to add and where to place them.
- Block Placement: Ensure blocks are firmly pressed into place. The small size requires careful handling. A pair of tweezers (not included) can be helpful for precise placement of very small blocks.
- Structural Integrity: Pay close attention to the structural integrity of the model as you build. Ensure layers are properly aligned and connected to prevent sections from becoming unstable.
- Patience is Key: This is a Level 4 difficulty model. Take breaks if you feel fatigued or frustrated. Rushing can lead to errors or misplaced blocks.
- Color and Shape Recognition: Accurately identify the correct color and shape of each block as indicated in the instructions.

Maintenance and Care
- Cleaning: To clean your assembled nanoblock model, gently dust it with a soft brush or a can of compressed air. For more stubborn dirt, a slightly damp cloth can be used, but avoid excessive moisture.
- Storage: Store the model in a stable location away from direct sunlight, extreme temperatures, and high humidity to prevent discoloration or material degradation.
- Handling: Handle the assembled model with care, especially when moving it, to avoid accidental disassembly.
Troubleshooting
- Missing Pieces:
- Carefully re-check your workspace and packaging. Due to the small size of nanoblocks, pieces can easily be overlooked. If a piece is genuinely missing, contact nanoblock customer support (see Support section).
- Difficulty Connecting Blocks:
- Ensure blocks are correctly oriented and aligned. Apply firm, even pressure. Avoid forcing blocks, as this can damage them. If a block seems too tight, try a different one of the same type if available.
- Model Instability:
- Review previous steps in the instruction manual to ensure all blocks are correctly placed and firmly connected. Instability often results from a misaligned or loosely connected section.
