Un buon manuale d’uso
Le regole impongono al rivenditore l'obbligo di fornire all'acquirente, insieme alle merci, il manuale d’uso Promise Technology TX2300. La mancanza del manuale d’uso o le informazioni errate fornite al consumatore sono la base di una denuncia in caso di inosservanza del dispositivo con il contratto. Secondo la legge, l’inclusione del manuale d’uso in una forma diversa da quella cartacea è permessa, che viene spesso utilizzato recentemente, includendo una forma grafica o elettronica Promise Technology TX2300 o video didattici per gli utenti. La condizione è il suo carattere leggibile e comprensibile.
Che cosa è il manuale d’uso?

- istruzioni per l'uso, la regolazione e la manutenzione delle attrezzature Promise Technology TX2300
- segnaletica di sicurezza e certificati che confermano la conformità con le norme pertinenti
Perché non leggiamo i manuali d’uso?

Questo manuale contiene una serie di linee guida per funzionalità specifiche, la sicurezza, metodi di manutenzione (anche i mezzi che dovrebbero essere usati), eventuali difetti Promise Technology TX2300 e modi per risolvere i problemi più comuni durante l'uso. Infine, il manuale contiene le coordinate del servizio Promise Technology in assenza dell'efficacia delle soluzioni proposte.

Perché leggere il manuale d’uso?
