Make sure it is against the roof of your mouth to start, with the reeds (wide side) pointed towards your lips. Flip it if this doesn't work, the reeds might be upside down.

My advice would be to keep it simple. Start with a double reed call and get yourself a good mouth call educational dvd. That will get you started in the right direction.
Good luck... Ray
