Problems with models offset from [0,0,0]

I have a model which is not rendering properly, because the coordinates are way, ware far from 0. Can you help?

From Rich:

I searched the SketchUp Help and found this method to move all the geometry in a model closer to the origin:

This can also happen if your model is very far away from the origin point (the point where the red, green, and blue axes intersect). In that case, you can move your model closer to the origin point following these steps:

Select all of the geometry in your model by typing Control+A or Command+A, or by clicking and dragging the Select tool across your geometry.

Change to the Move tool by going to Tools > Move.

Grab a corner point of the selected geometry that is on the ground plane and start to move the selected geometry.

Type [0,0,0] (including the square brackets) in the Measurement toolbar (which is in the lower-right corner of the SketchUp window). This causes the selected point to be moved to the origin point.
