When you buy a household product or some electronic device, you get an instruction manual with it. Do you write it carefully or simply put it in the box and start using gadget?

I read the whole manual carefully and try the instructions. This makes me comfortable in using it as I know that I know my gadegt and it will not malfunction on me.

When i got a new product but same with my old one, i really never read the manual i just go right away to the product coz i know how to get it done. But for the new product to me and it needs to install manually, i used to read the manual carefully and make sure not to make any mistakes. happy posting.

Whenever I buy a new product that contains instructions, I always read these. I also keep the instructions for the life of the product and then I dispose of them. Some gadgets are pretty easy to use and it's probably not necessary to read the instructions however, I always treat this as a golden rule that instructions are there for a reason. When you first buy a product there's also an element of excitement, you just want to see how the thing operates, what it can do! Let's take the instruction manual for a car or a plane for example! I guess we wouldn't dare avoid reading these instructions. Andrew

I read the manual clearly before using that product. I think it is good to read all those instructions. After reading all the instructions I will put it on that box and hide in one place. I think it will be helpful when that product causes any problem. Happy to share your views. Happy myLotting.

I usually go through the instruction manual. I do it more carefully if I am a first time user of that product and don'y know much about the usage of it. Its really important to go through the instruction manual if its a electronic equipment that you have bought.
