A good user manual

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.

What is an instruction?

Eventually, when one still can't find the answer to his problems, he will be directed to the Linn service. Lately animated manuals and instructional videos are quite popular among customers.
