VIVANCO CERVERO, Verónica. La correspondencia entre función comunicativa y función semántica en los manuales de instrucciones. Comun. soc [online]. 2007, n.7, pp.129-145. ISSN 0188-252X.

The object of the present paper is the outlining of the thematic divisions and the communicative functions inherent to the genre of instructional household appliance leaflets. The movements that come to light are warning, technical specifications, preparation for use, use, cleaning and maintenance, troubleshooting, and finally, guarantee / warranty and technical service. The aforementioned movements match with different semantic functions that range from advice, caution and information (first part), to the explanatory function in the middle movements, and to the informative message in the final part, signalling, in this way, the progression of the text.

Palabras llave : instruction manuals; communication; semantics; explanation; information.
