Setup
Unboxing and Inspection:
- Carefully remove the model and its components from the exquisite packaging box and fixed plastic box.
- Inspect all parts for any signs of damage during transit.
- Verify that all included components are present: the F-22 model, metal display bracket, and any possible authentic accessories.
Assembling the Display Stand:
- Identify the base and the support arm of the metal bracket.
- Securely attach the support arm to the base. Ensure it is stable.

Operating Features
Opening the Cockpit Canopy:
The cockpit canopy is designed to open. Gently lift the canopy from its front edge. It can be opened to approximately a 40-degree angle. Avoid forcing it beyond its natural range of motion to prevent damage.
Accessing the Missile Bay:
To open the main missile bay, locate the small button on the underside of the fuselage. Press this button to release the bay doors, revealing the internal missiles. To close, gently push the doors back into place until they click securely.
Adjusting Control Surfaces:
The model features adjustable rudders. The vertical rudders (tail fins) can be adjusted horizontally, and the lifting rudders can be adjusted vertically. Handle these parts gently when adjusting their position.
Maintenance
Cleaning Instructions:
To maintain the appearance of your F-22 Raptor model, wipe it clean with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners, solvents, or excessive moisture, as these can damage the paint finish or material. Regular dusting is recommended to prevent buildup.
Storage:
When not on display, store the model in its original packaging or a protective case to prevent dust accumulation and accidental damage. Keep it away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures to preserve the paint and material integrity.
Troubleshooting
Loose Parts:
If any small, detachable parts (e.g., missiles, external fuel tanks) become loose, they can typically be reattached by gently pressing them back into their designated slots. If a part is broken, contact customer support for assistance.
Display Stand Instability:
Ensure the display stand is placed on a flat, stable surface. Verify that the support arm is securely attached to the base and that the model is correctly seated on the stand's mounting points.
