Troubleshooting

Missing pieces

Carefully re-examine the puzzle area and the box. If pieces are confirmed missing after thorough searching, contact Castorland customer service for potential assistance, though replacements for specific pieces are not always guaranteed.

Pieces don't fit snugly

Ensure you are using the correct pieces for the location. Double-check the image on the box. Sometimes, similar colors or shapes can be misleading.

Puzzle pieces bending or tearing

Handle pieces with care, especially when fitting them together. Avoid forcing pieces. Ensure the surface you are working on is smooth and free of debris.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Clear a large, flat surface: Ensure you have ample space (approximately 920 mm x 680 mm or 36.2" x 26.8") for the completed puzzle. A dedicated table, a large cutting board, or a puzzle mat is recommended.
  2. Sort pieces: Open the box and spread the pieces out, preferably with the image side up. Sorting by color or pattern can be helpful, especially for large puzzles.
  3. Assemble the border: Start by finding all the edge pieces to create the frame of the puzzle. This provides a defined area to work within.
  4. Work on distinct sections: Identify recognizable elements in the image (e.g., buildings, boats, sky, water) and assemble these smaller sections before connecting them.

  • This product is a jigsaw puzzle and is not compatible with electronic devices or software.

  • Handle pieces gently to avoid bending or creasing.
  • To clean the finished puzzle, use a soft, dry cloth. For stubborn marks, a slightly damp cloth can be used, but ensure the puzzle dries completely afterward.
