Maintenance
- Cleaning: Wipe down the dollhouse, pool, boat, and accessories with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Rinse thoroughly and allow to air dry completely before storage. Do not submerge electronic components (if any, though none are mentioned for this set).
- Drying Dolls: If dolls have been in water, ensure they are thoroughly dried before storing them or placing them back in the dollhouse to prevent mildew.
- Storage: The dollhouse is designed to fold for easy storage and portability. Fold the house sections securely. Store all components in a clean, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |

| Dollhouse sections do not connect securely. | Improper alignment or obstruction. | Ensure all tabs and slots are correctly aligned. Check for any small accessories blocking the connection points. Apply gentle, even pressure. |
| Boat does not float properly. | Water leakage or imbalance. | Inspect the boat for any cracks or openings. Ensure dolls are seated evenly to maintain balance. |
