Verify if batteries are required for the sound effect mechanism (refer to manual). If so, check battery orientation and replace if depleted. Ensure the knobs are turned correctly.
Cupboard doors not closing properly
Check for any obstructions inside the cupboard or misalignment of the magnetic closures. Gently adjust the door hinges if necessary.
