Le regole impongono al rivenditore l'obbligo di fornire all'acquirente, insieme alle merci, il manuale d’uso Roland EXR-7. 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.

- istruzioni per l'uso, la regolazione e la manutenzione delle attrezzature Roland EXR-7
- segnaletica di sicurezza e certificati che confermano la conformità con le norme pertinenti
Perché non leggiamo i manuali d’uso?
