A good user manual

The rules should oblige the seller to give the purchaser an operating instrucion of Uniden LRD 6275WS, 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?

The term originates from the Latin word „instructio”, which means organizing. Therefore, in an instruction of Uniden LRD 6275WS one could find a process description. An instruction's purpose is to teach, to ease the start-up and an item's use or performance of certain activities. An instruction is a compilation of information about an item/a service, it is a clue.

Unfortunately, only a few customers devote their time to read an instruction of Uniden LRD 6275WS. A good user manual introduces us to a number of additional functionalities of the purchased item, and also helps us to avoid the formation of most of the defects.

What should a perfect user manual contain?

First and foremost, an user manual of Uniden LRD 6275WS should contain:
- informations concerning technical data of Uniden LRD 6275WS
- name of the manufacturer and a year of construction of the Uniden LRD 6275WS item
- rules of operation, control and maintenance of the Uniden LRD 6275WS item
- safety signs and mark certificates which confirm compatibility with appropriate standards

Why don't we read the manuals?

Usually it results from the lack of time and certainty about functionalities of purchased items. Unfortunately, networking and start-up of Uniden LRD 6275WS alone are not enough. An instruction contains a number of clues concerning respective functionalities, safety rules, maintenance methods (what means should be used), eventual defects of Uniden LRD 6275WS, and methods of problem resolution. Eventually, when one still can't find the answer to his problems, he will be directed to the Uniden service. Lately animated manuals and instructional videos are quite popular among customers. These kinds of user manuals are effective; they assure that a customer will familiarize himself with the whole material, and won't skip complicated, technical information of Uniden LRD 6275WS.

Why one should read the manuals?

It is mostly in the manuals where we will find the details concerning construction and possibility of the Uniden LRD 6275WS item, and its use of respective accessory, as well as information concerning all the functions and facilities.

After a successful purchase of an item one should find a moment and get to know with every part of an instruction. Currently the manuals are carefully prearranged and translated, so they could be fully understood by its users. The manuals will serve as an informational aid.

    SPEED DETECTION SYSTEMS A speed detection device (often called a radar gun) sends out either a micro wave signal or beam of light. When this signal reaches its targ et, par t of the signal is reflected or bounced back tow ard the emitting gun. The time required f or the signal to leave the gun, bounce off an object, and return is used to determine [...]

    ▼ L ASER The Laser Speed Detection System, also called LID AR (for Li ght D etection and Ranging), uses a laser gun that emits infrared light pulses just outside the spectrum of visible light. Each reflected pulse measures the speed of the object coming to ward or going away fr om the laser gun. Unlik e radar , the laser gun emits a very narrow b[...]

    INSTALLATION T h e LRD 6250SWS/LRD 6275SWS uses a highly sensitive horn-type antenna and IR laser sensor to receiv e laser/radar signals. Its sensitivity and range depend on the method of installation and the direction of the antenna/sensor in relation to the signal source. The inherent natur e of radar waves mak es them reflect of f metallic surfa[...]
