6. Maintenance

To ensure the longevity and appearance of your CaDA model, follow these simple maintenance guidelines:

• Cleaning: Dust the model regularly with a soft, dry cloth. For more stubborn dirt, a slightly damp cloth can be used, but avoid excessive moisture. Do not use harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
• Storage: Store the model in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent color fading and material degradation.
• Handling: Handle the model with care to avoid accidental disassembly or damage to delicate parts.

7. Troubleshooting

If you encounter any issues during assembly or with the completed model, consider the following:

• Missing Pieces: If you believe you are missing any building blocks, carefully re-check the packaging and surrounding area. If pieces are genuinely missing, please contact CaDA customer support for assistance.
• Assembly Difficulties: If a section is not fitting correctly, re-examine the instruction manual for that specific step. Ensure all pieces are oriented correctly and fully pressed into place. Sometimes, a small error in an earlier step can affect later assembly.
• Loose Connections: If parts feel loose, ensure they are fully connected. Building blocks require a firm, but gentle, push to secure.
