Bom manual de uso

As regras impõem ao revendedor a obrigação de fornecer ao comprador o manual com o produto Eagle Electronics 320. A falta de manual ou informações incorretas fornecidas ao consumidor são a base de uma queixa por não conformidade do produto com o contrato. De acordo com a lei, pode anexar o manual em uma outra forma de que em papel, o que é frequentemente utilizado, anexando uma forma gráfica ou manual electrónicoEagle Electronics 320 vídeos instrutivos para os usuários. A condição é uma forma legível e compreensível.

O que é a instrução?

A palavra vem do latim "Instructio" ou instruir. Portanto, no manual Eagle Electronics 320 você pode encontrar uma descrição das fases do processo. O objetivo do manual é instruir, facilitar o arranque, a utilização do equipamento ou a execução de determinadas tarefas. O manual é uma coleção de informações sobre o objeto / serviço, um guia.

Infelizmente, pequenos usuários tomam o tempo para ler o manual Eagle Electronics 320, e um bom manual não só permite conhecer uma série de funcionalidades adicionais do dispositivo, mas evita a formação da maioria das falhas.

Então, o que deve conter o manual perfeito?

Primeiro, o manual Eagle Electronics 320 deve conte:
- dados técnicos do dispositivo Eagle Electronics 320
- nome do fabricante e ano de fabricação do dispositivo Eagle Electronics 320
- instruções de utilização, regulação e manutenção do dispositivo Eagle Electronics 320
- sinais de segurança e certificados que comprovam a conformidade com as normas pertinentes

Por que você não ler manuais?

Normalmente, isso é devido à falta de tempo e à certeza quanto à funcionalidade específica do dispositivo adquirido. Infelizmente, a mesma ligação e o arranque Eagle Electronics 320 não são suficientes. O manual contém uma série de orientações sobre funcionalidades específicas, a segurança, os métodos de manutenção (mesmo sobre produtos que devem ser usados), possíveis defeitos Eagle Electronics 320 e formas de resolver problemas comuns durante o uso. No final, no manual podemos encontrar as coordenadas do serviço Eagle Electronics na ausência da eficácia das soluções propostas.

    8 These are all "kick-up" mounting brac kets. They help prevent damage if the transducer strikes an object while the boat is moving. If the trans- ducer does "kick-up," the bracket ca n easily be pushed back into place without tools. Read these instructions carefully before attempting the installation. Determine which of the mou[...]

    9 then the chosen location must be in the water at all times. If the transducer is not placed in a smooth flow of water, interference caused by bubbles and turbulence will show on the sonar's display in the form of random lines or dots whenever the boat is moving. NOTE: Some aluminum boats with strakes or ribs on the outside of the hull create[...]

    10 How low should you go? For most situations, you should in stall your Skimmer transducer so that its centerline is level with th e bottom of the boat hull. This will usually give you the best combinat ion of smooth water flow and protec- tion from bangs and bumps. Align transducer centerline with hull bottom. However, there are times when you may[...]

    11 However, the shoot-thru-hull installation does have its drawbacks. First, some loss of sensitivity does occur, even on the best hulls. This varies from hull to hull, even from different installations on the same hull. This is caused by differenc es in hull lay-up and construction. Second, the transducer angle cannot be adjusted for the best fish[...]

If only the back half of the arch is printed, then the nose of the transducer is angled too far down and needs to be raised. NOTE: Periodically wash the transducer's face with soap and water to re- move any oil film. Oil [...]
