Troubleshooting
The xylophone produces a dull sound
Ensure the xylophone is placed on a flat, hard surface to allow the sound to resonate properly; soft surfaces like carpet will dampen the tone.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
This product requires no setup; simply remove it from the closed box packaging to begin. To maintain the instrument, wipe the wooden base and metal keys with a soft, dry cloth periodically to remove dust or fingerprints. Avoid using abrasive cleaning agents or immersing the instrument in water, as this may damage the wood or affect the resonance of the metal bars. Store in a dry area to prevent the metal from oxidizing over time.
