Instructions & manuals
The right manual for this model.
Even after sales have ended.
On a product or box, a QR can open the manual matching the model. Identify the version and maintain its address so the document remains findable after purchase.

A well-prepared project.
Check the model and reading link
Host the PDF manual in a maintained location and copy its reading link. Check the model, language and revision inside the document. A preview link tied to your session is not the link to print on the product.
Create the PDF document QRProvide a selection page for several versions
A stable page can offer the appropriate languages and revisions without adding several QR codes to the label. Clearly state which document matches each reference. Retain older manuals when products already in use still need them.

The final details
Before sharing the display.
A QR code decoded on screen is a first check. Also verify the destination and the material actually used.
- Keep necessary instructions on or with the product independently of scanning.
- Test the QR on the attached label and the manual on a small screen.
- With each revision, check that the address and model match remain correct.
Good to know
Before getting started.
Can I replace the PDF without changing the QR?
Yes, if the reading address stays the same and the new document suits the product. If the address changes, update an intermediate page you control or replace the QR.
