6. Maintenance

To ensure the longevity and appearance of your CaDA C66014W building set, follow these maintenance guidelines:

• Cleaning: Gently dust the model regularly with a soft brush or a can of compressed air. For stubborn dirt, wipe with a slightly damp cloth, avoiding excessive moisture. Do not use harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
• Storage: Store the assembled model in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent discoloration or warping of the plastic bricks.
• Disassembly: If disassembling, keep parts organized to facilitate future reassembly.

7. Troubleshooting

Here are solutions to common issues you might encounter:

• Missing or Damaged Parts: If you discover missing or damaged pieces during assembly, please contact CaDA customer support with details of the part number and quantity.
• Loose Connections: Ensure all bricks are firmly pressed together. CaDA bricks are designed for a secure fit. If a connection feels loose, double-check the instruction step.
• Lights Not Working:
  1. Verify the USB cable is securely connected to both the lighting device and a functional power source.
  2. Check if the power source is active.
  3. Ensure no wires are pinched or damaged within the model.
• Wobbly Structures (e.g., utility pole, back wall): Some elements, like the utility pole or hinged back wall, may require careful positioning. If a part feels unstable, ensure all connecting bricks are fully engaged. For the back wall, ensure it clears the base when opening/closing.
• Difficulty with Instructions: If a step is unclear, review the preceding and following steps, and examine the image carefully for orientation. Online communities or CaDA's official resources may offer additional visual guides.
