Unpack the puzzle pieces carefully. It is recommended to sort the pieces by edge pieces and color/pattern to facilitate assembly.

Assembly Instructions

Follow these steps to assemble your 1000-piece Trefl Jigsaw Puzzle:

1. Sort Pieces: Begin by separating all edge pieces from the inner pieces. Edge pieces typically have one flat side.
2. Build the Border: Assemble the border of the puzzle first. This provides a framework for the rest of the puzzle.
3. Sort by Color/Pattern: Group the remaining inner pieces by color, pattern, or distinct features. This will help in identifying sections of the image.
4. Assemble Sections: Work on individual sections of the puzzle based on your sorted groups. Refer to the image on the puzzle box for guidance.
5. Connect Sections: Once smaller sections are completed, connect them to each other and to the border until the entire puzzle is assembled.

Maintenance

To ensure the longevity of your Trefl puzzle, follow these maintenance guidelines:

• Cleaning: If pieces become dusty, gently wipe them with a dry, soft cloth. Avoid using water or cleaning solutions, as they may damage the paper.
• Storage: Store unassembled puzzle pieces in their original box or a dedicated puzzle storage container in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and humidity.
• Completed Puzzle: If you wish to preserve your completed puzzle, you can use puzzle glue (sold separately) to permanently bond the pieces together. Once glued, the puzzle can be framed and displayed.

Troubleshooting

Here are solutions to common issues you might encounter:

• Missing Pieces: While rare, if you believe a piece is missing, thoroughly check your work area, under furniture, and inside the puzzle box. If a piece is genuinely missing from a new, sealed puzzle, contact Trefl customer support.
• Damaged Pieces: If any pieces are damaged upon opening the box, please contact Trefl customer support for assistance.
• Difficulty Assembling: If you find the puzzle challenging, try sorting pieces into smaller, more manageable groups. Take breaks and return to the puzzle with fresh eyes.
