the other day i was reading the owners manual for a 2001 - 2007 dodge caravan. I cant help but notice all the little warning labels that come with pretty much every car. There is alot of instructions on how to operate the electrical components and such of the car. What do automakers think we are....dummies? Seriously when was the last time you had to consult the owners manual for a car to operate the a/c .....probably not as most cars share the same ac layout and all ( except with those with in dash computers which handle everything). Some of the safety information may seem obvious but sadly some people are dumb enough to do stuff that you shouldnt do such as letting a kid under 12 sit in the front passenger seat where there is an airbag. However owners manuals are useful if you want to find the SAE ra5ting for your oil or how to operate the feautures that are not so common these days like hands free calling. So if i were to make an owners manual for a car i would make two of them, one with the uncommon feautures and the oil one, and the other one which will be called " Health and safety for Dummies"
