| LEGO Audio & Braille Building Instructions for the LEGO City set "Fire Hazard Truck". |
| Emergency! Fire! Help! Join the LEGO City firefighter aboard the cool fire hazard truck and race to the scene. Yikes - the road is blocked with burning wood! It's no problem for this awesome vehicle. Use the truck's steering function to sweep the burning logs aside with its front plow. Then grab the extinguisher to put out the flames. Good work! Another busy day for the LEGO City heroes. |
| On the box cover, the fire hazard truck can be seen in full action, pushing three burning logs out of the way with its large white front plow. The logs are literally flying off to the side thanks to the truck's force! The truck's color is blazing red with bright yellow horizontal stripes on its sides, the wheels are black, and on top there is a flashing blue light for emergency rides. But wait, in the right bottom corner of the box cover, there is another log that is still on fire! Let's see if you can get it out of the way before someone gets hurt! |
| Open the box. This can be tricky; ask someone to help you! |
| The box contains two plastic bags and one booklet with visual building instructions. |
| Carefully open both plastic bags, but before you start building, ask a sighted person to help you sort the pieces by color. This makes finding the correct pieces even easier! |
