Maintenance
Proper care ensures the longevity and continued enjoyment of your LEGO set.
- Cleaning: To clean LEGO bricks, use mild soap and lukewarm water (not exceeding 104°F or 40°C). Rinse thoroughly and air dry. Do not use hot water, harsh chemicals, or abrasive materials, as these can damage the plastic.
- Storage: Store LEGO bricks in a clean, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Prolonged exposure to sunlight can cause discoloration, and extreme temperatures can lead to warping or brittleness.
- Handling: Avoid applying excessive force when connecting or disconnecting bricks to prevent damage to the studs or elements. Handle minifigures and accessories gently.

If you encounter any issues with your LEGO City Emergency Rescue Helicopter set, consider the following solutions:
- Missing Pieces: If you discover a piece is missing from your new set, please refer to the official LEGO customer service website for information on how to request replacement parts.
- Difficulty Connecting Bricks: Ensure that bricks are aligned correctly before applying pressure. If a piece is consistently difficult to connect, check for any deformities in the brick or foreign objects obstructing the connection points.
- Instructions Unclear: If a step in the physical instruction manual is unclear, re-examine the illustrations carefully. You can also consult the digital instructions available on the LEGO Builder app for clearer visual guidance and 3D views.
