A good user manual
The rules should oblige the seller to give the purchaser an operating instrucion of APart SDQ5PIR-BL, along with an item. The lack of an instruction or false information given to customer shall constitute grounds to apply for a complaint because of nonconformity of goods with the contract. In accordance with the law, a customer can receive an instruction in non-paper form; lately graphic and electronic forms of the manuals, as well as instructional videos have been majorly used. A necessary precondition for this is the unmistakable, legible character of an instruction.
What is an instruction?

An instruction's purpose is to teach, to ease the start-up and an item's use or performance of certain activities.
