LEGO 31130-C Sunken Treasure Mission 

LEGO Audio & Braille Building Instructions for the LEGO Creator set "Sunken Treasure Mission" – giant manta ray with deep-sea diver, skeleton, and coral reef.
Enjoy incredible underwater adventures with 3 different LEGO playsets. Dive to the bottom of the sea in a submarine to search for sunken treasure guarded by an octopus. Later, rebuild it into a smaller submarine for more action with a giant lobster – or turn it into a giant manta ray for fun with a diver and coral reef. The play possibilities are endless with this brilliant 3in1 set.
Note: if you have already built one of the other two playsets, you have to disassemble it before you can start building the current one.
The box cover shows a scene at the bottom of the sea. A giant dark red octopus is resting its eight tentacles on the seabed in the center of the scene. Approaching from behind on the right is a high-tech submarine. It is a propeller-driven vessel with a grey body, big yellow oxygen tanks, a camera, and 2 remote control arms. It's perfect for exploring the deep blue sea. The submarine pilot is sitting in the cockpit, which is a glass bubble providing a 180° view. At the very bottom of the box cover, there is a sunken gold safe. However, it seems like the sturdy safe door broke open and 2 gold ingots fell out! A skeleton scuba diver is leaning on the side of the safe, probably hiding from the submarine and the octopus. On the right side of the box cover, there is a vertical yellow banner with the 3-in-1 logo on top as well as small images of the 2 rebuild options of this set. The first rebuild option is a giant red lobster with a compact submarine and underwater ruins, and the second rebuild option is a giant red manta ray with a skeleton and a colorful coral reef. The current instructions are for the latter playset.
If you haven't done that already, open the box. This can be tricky; ask someone to help you!
The box contains 3 booklets with visual building instructions (one for each 3-in-1 option) and 4 bags with numbers printed on them. Ask a sighted person to help you find the correct bag!
Carefully open the bags or disassemble the previous build.
Before you start building, ask a sighted person to help you sort the pieces by color. This makes finding the correct pieces even easier!
First, we will build the deep-sea diver Minifigure.
Collect the following 2 pieces:
1 silver metallic, earth blue and dark stone grey upper part of the body,
and 1 earth blue pair of legs.
Put the upper body on the legs.
Find 1 black top angle plate 1x2 - 1x2 with top hole and 1 side knob.
Put the top hole around the neck, side knob overhanging to the front.
Collect the following 2 pieces:

This piece is printed with a black dial indicator with red needle and white, green, and red sections indicating the pressure in the oxygen bottles.
Find 1 bright yellow Minifigure head.
Put the head on the body.
Next, we will assemble the diving helmet.
Collect the following 2 pieces:
1 transparent light blue pair of diving goggles with snorkel,
and 1 dark stone grey helmet with thick chin strap.
Hold the helmet in your hand, opening to the right.
Put the diving goggles on from the right, snorkel to the back.
Put the diving helmet on the head.
Find 2 teal blue flippers. (These are swimming fins you can wear for faster diving or swimming.)
Mount the flippers underneath the legs of the diver, flippers pointing to the front.
Next, we will build the underwater camera with floodlight.
Collect the following 2 pieces:
1 black camera piece, (This is like an old-school handheld camera device in the size suitable to a Minifigure)
and 1 bright blue plate 1x1 with vertical side clasp.
Put the camera piece horizontally on the table, knob to the top, camera handle to the left.
Put the plate 1x1 on top, clasp pointing to the front.
Collect the following 2 pieces:

Put the round tile on the previous piece. This is the camera lens!
Find 1 black angled handlebar with bottom shaft.
Hold it in your hand so that the small bottom shaft is pointing to the top and the 2 ends of the handlebar are pointing to the back.
Now, pick up the camera and hold it so that its clasp is to the bottom and the lens is pointing to the front. Snap the clasp onto the small shaft of the handlebar.
Then, flip the ends of the handlebars up so that they point to the top. This build will be a bit wobbly, but that's ok.
Find 1 bright blue small tube with shaft. (This piece is tube-shaped and about as big as a plate 1x1.)
Put the small tube on the handlebar end on the right. This will be the floodlight base.
Next, let's make the lense of the floodlight.
Collect the following 3 pieces:
1 transparent round tile 1x1,
1 black open end wrench,
and 1 black round plate 1x1 with through-hole.
Put the round tile 1x1 upside down on the table. This means the flat surface touches the table and the opening is to the top.
Put the round plate with through-hole upside down on the previous piece.
Insert the handle of the wrench from the top into the hole of the previous piece. The wrench head will stick out towards the top.
The lense of the floodlight is finished! Great job! Snap the wrench head on the small shaft of the floodlight base and adjust them so that the transparent round tile 1x1 is pointing to the front.
The underwater camera with floodlight is finished! Snap the handle of the camera into the diver's hand and start taking pictures of the breathtaking underwater world.
The deep-sea diver Minifigure is finished! Well done! She is wearing a dark blue diving suit. The jacket of the suit has grey inserts and two neon-green arrows on it. It has functional pockets and zippers; as a deep-sea diver you need practical clothing for sure! The head of the diver is printed with two different faces: one has a determined and exploratory look, the other one has an expression of positive surprise. The treasures of the sea are marvelous!
Next, we will build the giant manta ray.
Collect the following 2 pieces:

Put the plate 2x6 horizontally on the front edge of the 2 round plates 6x6, round corners to the back. You have to exactly mirror the identical plate at the back.
Put the plate 1x2 vertically behind the previous piece. Align it with the previous piece's second column from the right. If done correctly, there will be an empty 2x2 space between the two plates 1x2.
Find 1 black round plate 2x2.
First, flip the manta ray structure upside down. Keep the orientation horizontal.
Mount the round plate 2x2 centered on the front edge, half of the plate overhanging to the front.
Collect the following 4 pieces:
2 maroon red plates 1x2,
and 2 bright red plates 1x3.
Put 1 plate 1x2 horizontally on the second row from the back, starting from the left. Make sure that the curvature of the round plate 6x6 protrudes underneath this plate to the left and to the back. It only aligns with the outer circumference of the base plate on the back left corner.
Put 1 plate 1x3 horizontally to the right of the previous piece.
Put the other plate 1x3 horizontally to the right of the previous piece.
Put the remaining plate 1x2 horizontally to the right of the previous piece.
If done correctly, these 4 plates form 1 row at the back. The 2 back curvatures of the round plates 6x6 will slightly protrude towards the back, and the left curvatures protrude symmetrically, as well.
Next, we will make 2 sub-parts of the manta ray.
Collect the following 2 pieces:

Put the brick 1x2 with 4 side knobs flat on the table to the right of the previous piece, and make sure its 4 side knobs are pointing to the bottom and its 2 top knobs are pointing to the right.
Then, mount the 2 side knobs of the one-stepped plate coming from the left on the brick 1x2.
Collect the following 2 pieces:
another medium stone grey brick 1x2x1⅔ with 4 side knobs,
and another bright yellow one-stepped plate 2x2x⅔ with 2 side knobs.
Repeat the previous step with these parts: put the brick 1x2 flat on the table, 4 side knobs to the bottom, 2 top knobs to the right. Mount the 2 side knobs of the one-stepped plate on the brick, coming from the left.
Mount 1 sub-part vertically centered on the left round plate 6x6 directly in front of the row of plates at the back. Make sure the 2 knobs of the brick are pointing to the front.
Mount the other sub-part vertically centered on the right round plate 6x6, again directly in front of the row of plates at the back, 2 knobs to the front.
Next up, we will build a base strutting of the manta ray.
Collect the following 2 pieces:
1 black plate 4x4,
and 1 medium stone grey plate 2x3.
Put the plate 4x4 on the table.
Put the plate 2x3 vertically on the 2 rightmost columns, starting from the front.
Find 1 medium stone grey plate 2x3.
Put it vertically to the left of the previous piece. If done correctly, the back row is still empty.
Find 1 medium nougat brown plate 2x8 with 7 holes.
Put it horizontally behind the 2 previous pieces, symmetrically overhanging to the left and right, 1 row overhanging to the back.
Attention: keep the base strutting in the building orientation, do not flip it upside down.
Mount the base strutting by inserting the front part with the 2 plates 2x3 between the 2 previously mounted sub-parts. The front row of the plate 2x8 connects with the back rows of the 2 one-stepped plates 2x2 on the left and right edge.
Now, we will build 2 mounts for the pectoral fins. (Pectoral fins are the side fins of the manta ray.)

The 2 pectoral fin mounts are finished! Flip 1 upside down, ball to the left, and mount it centered on the left edge of the structure, ball overhanging to the left.
Flip the other mount upside down, ball to the right, and mount it centered on the right edge of the structure, ball overhanging to the right.
Find 2 medium stone grey plates 1x4.
Flip 1 upside down and turn it vertically.
Mount it centered on the back edge of the left round plate 6x6, 3 knobs overhanging to the back.
Repeat symmetrically with the other plate 1x4 on the right round plate 6x6.
Next, we'll build the lower lip of the manta ray.
Collect the following 2 pieces:
1 medium stone grey mudguard screen 1x6 with steps and 6 knobs,
and 1 medium stone grey wedge plate 2x2 with 45° corner and 3 knobs.
Put the mudguard screen 1x6 horizontally on the table, smooth mudguard pointing to the back.
Turn the wedge plate 2x2 so that its cut-off corner is to the back right.
Mount its back knob on the rightmost knob of the mudguard plate, 1 row overhanging to the front.
Find another medium stone grey wedge plate 2x2 with 45° corner and 3 knobs.
Turn it so that its cut-off corner is to the back left.
Mount its back knob on the leftmost knob of the mudguard plate, 1 row overhanging to the front.
Before you mount the lower lip, identify the plate 2x8 with 7 holes that is mounted horizontally in the back half of the structure. Again, keep the building orientation of the strutting.
Mount the lower lip horizontally on the back row of said plate 2x8 using the 2 overhanging front rows of the wedge plates. If done correctly, the wedge plates are mounted on the left and right edges of the plate 2x8, and the mudguard screen is to the back.
Collect the following 4 pieces:
2 medium stone grey plates 2x3,
and 2 medium stone grey plates 1x2 with 1 knob.
Again, all these pieces will be mounted right side up.
Leave the protruding half of the round plate 2x2 and the frontmost row of knobs empty, and put the 2 plates 1x2 horizontally next to each other on the second row from the front. They fit neatly between the 2 bricks 1x2 with 4 side knobs mounted at the front edge.
Put the 2 plates 2x3 vertically behind the 2 previous pieces.
Collect the following 4 pieces:

Collect the following 2 pieces:
1 maroon red plate 1x2,
and 1 medium stone grey plate 1x2 with 1 knob.
Put the plate with 1 knob horizontally on the table, and put the plate 1x2 horizontally on top.
Flip the stacked plates upside down and mount them horizontally on the frontmost possible point in the middle. This means they will be mounted on the front half of the round plate 2x2.
Find 1 dark stone grey plate 1x2 with ball on long side.
First, flip the structure right side up again. Keep the horizontal orientation of the manta ray structure, but make sure that the 2 columns 1x3 as well as the mudguard screen are protruding to the front now, and the balls are to the left and right.
Mount the plate with ball horizontally on the backmost possible point in the middle, ball to the back. This means it will sit on the protruding knobs of the round plate 2x2.

Find 2 medium stone grey smooth roof tiles 1x1x⅔.
Put 1 upright on the side knob of the previous piece, slope to the top.
Repeat symmetrically on the opposite side knob, again slope to the top.
That was tricky, great job! These two protruding structures are actually the so-called "cephalic fins" of the manta ray. They help the manta ray push food into its mouth during filter feeding. Manta rays are fascinating creatures, don't you think?
Find 2 maroon red roof tiles 1x3, 25°.
First, turn the structure left to right. Now, the mudguard screen (or the manta ray's mouth) and the protruding structures (the cephalic fins) we have just built should be pointing to the back.
Flip 1 upright, turn it horizontally, its knob facing you and slope to the right.
Mount it in this orientation on the 2 side knobs pointing to the front in the right half of the structure, ⅓ overhanging to the left.
Repeat symmetrically on the left: put 1 upright horizontally on the 2 side knobs pointing to the front in the left half, ⅓ overhanging to the right.

Insert the shaft into the small tube.
Now, snap the clasp of this sub-part on the small shaft on the left edge of the tail structure.
The tail of the manta ray is finished! Well done! Snap its ball cup on the ball pointing to the front in the middle. You can bend and adjust the shape of the tail as you like.
The giant manta ray is finished! Very well done, this was a really intricate build! The manta ray is a deep-sea creature related to both fish and sharks. Manta rays glide through the ocean and feed off tiny plankton that is floating in the water.
Now, we will build the diamond skeleton Minifigure.
Collect the following 3 pieces:
2 white skeleton feet 1x1 with top clasp,
and 1 white skeleton torso with 2 arm shafts and 2 leg shafts (this piece also has a discernible ribcage).
Snap the 2 skeleton feet on the 2 leg shafts which are the shafts below the ribcage. Make sure the little skeleton toes are to the front on both feet.
Find 2 white skeleton arms. (A skeleton arm is like a bent shaft that forms an elbow, and it has 1 clasp on each end. Do not confuse them with the black skeleton arms.)
Snap the skeleton arms on the arm shafts to the left and right of the ribcage. Make sure the elbows are pointing to the bottom.
Find 1 white Minifigure head.
Put the head on the skeleton. It is printed with a skull with 2 black circles for eye sockets, a black triangle for the nose opening and a big skeleton grin.
