I'm a compulsive reader so I read User's Guides but the tapping the menu page to get a dialogue to skip to another page was something I had to discover by accident. I suppose it is a conflict for manufacturers. It seems from the questions on forums that the overwhelming majority of users don't read the guide at all so they more Amazon puts in the guide the fewer who will read it.
An acquaintance was having a computer problem years ago and their very nice computer had been trashed. In talking to them, I discovered they turned the computer off by hitting the power button on the power switch while the computer was still working. I asked if they'd read in the manual that you should never do that.
"No, we didn't get that far in the manual."
I opened the manual and said, "It's on page one, in big red print."
