6. Maintenance

Once assembled, your nanoblock Raichu model requires minimal maintenance.

• Cleaning: To clean the model, gently dust it with a soft brush or a dry cloth. Avoid using water or chemical cleaners, as these may damage the plastic.
• Storage: Store the assembled model in a stable location away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures to prevent discoloration or warping of the blocks.
• Disassembly: If you wish to disassemble the model, carefully separate the blocks. Small tools like tweezers (not included) can assist in separating tightly connected pieces.

7. Troubleshooting

• Missing Pieces: If you believe you are missing pieces, double-check your workspace and the packaging. Due to their small size, pieces can be easily overlooked. Contact nanoblock customer support if pieces are genuinely missing.
• Difficulty Connecting Blocks: Ensure blocks are aligned correctly. Apply gentle, even pressure. Avoid forcing blocks, as this can cause damage.
