-
If necessary remove the cup stand.

Insert the T DISC with the barcode side down. Be sure the tab of the T DISC is secured in the slot to the right.
points 1 and 2 are reversed compared to pix 1 and 2.
I'm not sure I know what you mean. Can you explain this to me, they look correct (and I have the coffee maker). But, maybe I don't understand.

-
Close the brewing unit by firmly pushing the lid down until it clicks into place.
-
-
-
The stand-by light will flash while reading the bar code. When the Automatic icon lights up (green), your Tassimo machine is ready to brew.
-
Press the start/stop button.
-
For a stronger taste and a smaller drink, press the start/stop button at any stage during the brewing process to stop the process early.
-
For a milder taste and a larger drink, wait until the Automatic brewing process has finished. The Manual icon will light up; press and hold the start/stop button to manually extend the brewing process.
-
Sit back and enjoy your hot and tasty beverage.

-
Wait until the orange stand-by light is on before removing the used T DISC. The green light indicates your TASSIMO machine is still in use.

If you do not wish to prepare more drinks, we recommend that you turn off your TASSIMO machine using the on/off switch.

Hey, Really it was an great article to read,Waiting for another one till that get more information about coffee makers,Keep it up!
Is Tassimo T45 a good coffee maker?
You haven't told the use to plug in the machine to the mains before switching it on- or is it battery operated?
The steps are not logically ordered or phrased well - you should tell the user to fill the water tank is filled before switching on the machine. "if necessary remove the cap stand"? - Do you mean - if your cup is too big to fit remove the cup stand or is there some other necessary reason - don't make the user guess be concise and explicit in your phrasing?
People read left to right - so the emphasis should be on the instructions not on the individual large pictures - The format is more artsy than useable. Put the instruction on the left and reduce the size of the contextual photos
But more importantly get an experienced technical writer to design,

Thanks for your interest in our Tassimo guides, Paul. Please note these guides are wikis, so you're welcome to revise/update as you see fit. However, be sure your changes are appropriate. Refer to our Tassimo setup guide which instructs you to plug in and clean your Tassimo before using. Also, it's not imperative that the Tassimo is off when you refill its water tank. It simply needs sufficient water before starting to brew. With regards to your comment about "if necessary remove the cap stand": actually, it does say 'cup stand,' and just before that bullet, it reads, "place a suitable cup on the stand, according to the type of drink you will be brewing." I presume people understand that if their cups are too large, the stand will need to be removed, but please feel free to change that if you think it's not clear. Last of all, Dozuki guides are media-rich. They do not aim to be artsy, but rather use hi-res images to show users how the actions they are performing will look.
