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 electrónicoSony SAT-A1 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 Sony SAT-A1 você pode encontrar uma descrição das fases do processo.

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 Sony SAT-A1 e formas de resolver problemas comuns durante o uso. No final, no manual podemos encontrar as coordenadas do serviço Sony na ausência da eficácia das soluções propostas.
