"Technical Instructions" is a melancholic song that depicts the difficulties of life through the metaphor of a confusing technical manual. With profound lyrics, it addresses confusion, loss and the search for meaning.

Description

Lyrics (translated from German):

Technical instructions speak to me in riddles:

  • To ensure the safety of the internal components, screw the device shut before opening it.
  • The red light should not be green. If it is green, please refer to section 38.1 which can be found on page 157, although the manual is only 120 pages long.
  • If the machine doesn't work, it's probably not working properly.
  • Make sure the device is turned on to turn it off properly.

  • If the screen is blue, you may have pressed the wrong button, but it is not identified.
  • Before using the device, please read the instructions for use located inside the device.
  • For safety reasons, never connect the device to a power source.
  • The use of the "Help" menu item is strongly discouraged.

  • Use the wrench provided to loosen the screws.
  • Please do not contact us if you have technical problems.
  • You will find the assembly instructions in the packaging after you have assembled the product.
  • Read the instruction manual before throwing it away.

  • If you notice an error, just ignore it. It will probably go away.
  • Make sure you forget your passwords to increase security.
  • Only connect the device to the power socket when it is completely discharged.
  • Do not use batteries that are included in the delivery, only use those that are not included.

  • If you can't find the device, you probably haven't looked properly.
  • The best way to troubleshoot is to randomly select options.
  • If the device does not work properly, try turning it on again. Repeat this process up to 100 times.
  • The manual may contain useful information, but we recommend that you do not read it.
