Arahan Operasi
Embouchure and Sound Production
The embouchure is crucial for producing a clear sound.
- Lip Plate Placement: Rest the lip plate against your chin, just below your lower lip.
- Embouchure Hole: Position your lower lip to cover about one-quarter to one-third of the embouchure hole.
- Air Stream: Direct a focused, steady stream of air across the embouchure hole, aiming for the opposite edge. Experiment with the angle and speed of your air to produce a clear tone.

Finger Placement and Key Mechanisms
The Vangoa VF-1 features 16 closed keys, an offset G mechanism, and a split E mechanism, designed for easier playability, especially for beginners.
- Closed Holes: The closed-hole design simplifies finger placement as you do not need to perfectly cover open holes. Press the keys firmly to ensure a complete seal.
- Offset G Keys: The offset G key design provides a more natural and ergonomic hand position, reducing strain during play.
- Split E Mechanism: This mechanism improves the response and stability of the high E note, making it easier to play.

Penyelenggaraan dan Penjagaan
Regular maintenance is essential to keep your flute in optimal playing condition and extend its lifespan.
- Selepas Setiap Penggunaan:
- Use the cleaning rod with the cleaning cloth to swab out moisture from the inside of the headjoint, body, and footjoint.
- Gently wipe the exterior of the flute with a soft, dry cloth to remove fingerprints and oils.
- Avoid touching the pads directly, as oils can degrade them.
- Key Pads: The flute features high-quality sheep casing pads. If a pad becomes sticky, gently clean it with a piece of lint-free paper (like cigarette paper) placed under the pad and lightly pressed.
- Storan: Always store your flute in its hard carrying case when not in use. This protects it from dust, impacts, and temperature fluctuations.
- Kit Pembersihan: Utilize the provided cleaning kit, including the screwdriver for minor adjustments (if necessary, consult a professional), and the key brush for cleaning around the keys.
