About Us

About Manuals.plus

Manuals.plus is an online library of user manuals and product documentation.
Our goal is simple: make it fast and frustration-free to find official instructions,
safety information, and technical details for the products you own.

Who We Are

Manuals.plus is an independent, product-neutral documentation library.
We are not owned by any particular brand or retailer, and we do not sell hardware
or accessories. Our focus is on collecting, organizing, and preserving
documentation so that people can safely use, maintain, and repair the things
they already have.

Manuals.plus is cataloged as a structured data entity in the Wikimedia ecosystem.
You can find our public data record here:

What We Do

We aggregate and organize documentation from a wide range of sources, including:

  • Official manufacturer PDF manuals, quick-start guides, and spec sheets
  • Retailer product documentation and safety sheets where available
  • Regulatory documentation for safety, compliance, and recycling information
  • Supplemental content such as wiring diagrams, installation guides, and parts lists

Each document is associated with metadata such as brand, model, product category,
file type, and language where possible. Our search tools and indexes are designed
to help you get from “I have this device in my hand” to the exact PDF or guide
you need in as few clicks as possible.

What You Can Find on Manuals.plus

Our library continues to grow and currently includes documentation for:

  • Appliances: refrigerators, washers, dryers, dishwashers, ovens, and more
  • Consumer electronics: phones, tablets, TVs, speakers, cameras, wearables
  • Tools & equipment: power tools, garden tools, test instruments
  • Vehicles & mobility: cars, EV chargers, scooters, bikes, accessories
  • Smart home & IoT devices: thermostats, sensors, hubs, lights, plugs
  • Miscellaneous products: toys, office equipment, medical and fitness gear, and more

We work continuously to expand coverage, fill gaps for older or uncommon products,
and update links when manufacturers move or reorganize their websites.

Where the Manuals Come From

Manuals.plus indexes documentation from multiple sources, including:

  • Official manufacturer and brand support portals
  • Retailer product pages and data feeds that include PDF attachments
  • Public documentation repositories and open data initiatives
  • Archived copies of manuals when manufacturers remove or relocate files

When possible, we link directly to the official file on a manufacturer or trusted
partner’s server. In cases where documents would otherwise be lost or inaccessible,
we may mirror or archive copies to ensure long-term availability.

How to Use Manuals.plus

You can access our documentation in several ways:

  • Search by brand or model: Enter a model number, product name, or brand into the search box.
  • Browse categories: Explore manuals grouped by product type and use case.
  • Deep search: Use advanced search to look inside titles and indexed metadata.
  • Upload & contribute: Share manuals you have so they can help other owners.

We aim to keep the experience lightweight, fast, and accessible on both desktop
and mobile devices, with a focus on clean layouts and direct access to the files.

Why Manuals Matter

Lost manuals are one of the most common reasons people give up on devices or
replace them sooner than necessary. Easy access to documentation helps:

  • Improve safety by making warnings and instructions easy to find
  • Extend product life through proper setup, maintenance, and troubleshooting
  • Support repair and reuse instead of disposal
  • Reduce e-waste and unnecessary consumption

Manuals.plus supports repair culture and informed ownership by making trustworthy,
manufacturer-level information easier to reach.

Right to Repair & Fair Use

needed to safely use, maintain, and service their products. Where allowed, we
provide documentation in a way that respects copyright, trademarks, and
applicable laws while supporting educational and informational use.
