Before #Brexit all of the manuals had to be in all languages in the EU, so English was included.

Not sure about now... 馃槥

Might be worth putting the Model Name of the appliance into a search engine to see if the manufacturer has a manual in your language. :D

@BillySmith @tess I did find an English manual that the Airbnb host SO THOUGHTFULLY put in the host guide! No comment about a tank but at least clear to try with smaller amounts.

Annoyingly search seems to be full of absolute AI slop for this. :-(

DuckDuckGo have started providing a NoAI prefix for their search website:

https://noai.duckduckgo.com/

I'm not sure about the other search engines though... :|

One suggestion that I was given 10+ years ago:

Try looking at the manufacturer's websites in the Internet Archive. 馃榿

There will be lots of older systems in there, but they will look like the newer machines in the older websites. 馃榿

The archives of their support websites should have the manuals. 馃榿

Not looking forward to trying this in 10 years time though... :))
