Safety Information
Important safety warnings for use, especially around children.

- Usage: Do not stand on the box. It is designed for storage and play, not as a seat or step.
- Inspection: Regularly check for damage, cracks, or wear. Discontinue use if damaged.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct heat sources or sunlight.
WARNING! Always supervise young children during play. The box is not airtight; do not submerge in water.
Assembly Instructions
The BYGGLEK box comes fully assembled. Follow these steps for initial setup and use.
- Unpack: Remove the box from its packaging.
- Inspect: Ensure the lid opens and closes smoothly and the studded surface is clean and undamaged.
- Position: Place the box on a flat, stable surface. It is ready for use.
- Stacking (Optional): To stack multiple BYGGLEK boxes, align the bottom of one box with the studded lid of the box below. They will interlock securely.
Tip: For best stability when stacking, ensure boxes are aligned squarely and not overloaded.
Usage & Creative Play
Maximize the functionality of your BYGGLEK box for storage and play.
- Storage: Open the lid, place items inside, and close. The smooth interior is easy to wipe clean.
- Building on the Lid: Use standard LEGO®, LEGO® DUPLO®, or other compatible bricks to build directly on the studded lid. Creations can remain attached for display or storage.
- Integrated Play: Build a scene on the lid that relates to the items stored inside (e.g., a castle on top, knights stored within).
- Organization: Use multiple boxes to sort bricks by color, type, or set. Label the sides with dry-erase markers (wipes off easily).
- Transport: Carry by the integrated handle. Ensure the lid is closed and secure.
Creative Idea: Build a handle or decoration on the lid to personalize your storage box.
Care & Cleaning
To maintain your BYGGLEK box in good condition.
- Daily Cleaning: Wipe the exterior and studded lid with a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth.
- Interior Cleaning: Empty the box. Wipe the interior with a damp cloth and mild soap if needed. Rinse with a damp cloth and dry thoroughly.
- Stubborn Stains: Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner. Do not use harsh chemicals, solvents, or abrasive pads.
- Drying: Always air dry completely before closing the lid or storing items to prevent moisture buildup.
