4. Operating Instructions
4.1 Inserting a Puzzle
- Open the folder by releasing the rubber cord closure.
- Select an empty sleeve. The sleeves are top-loading.
- Gently slide your completed puzzle into the sleeve from the top opening. Ensure the puzzle is flat to avoid bending or damage.

4.2 Displaying a Puzzle
To display a puzzle through the central mesh window:
