Whether the data back was standard or optional, it's shown in the illustrations used for the PZ-1p manual.

They could have used the illustrations from the PZ-1 manual that don't show the data back.

But since they used illustrations showing the Data Back for the PZ-1p manual, I don't think it's "US-centric" to suggest it should be mentioned somewhere in the text that accompanies the illustrations, even if it's only in a disclaimer.

I agree with you on the specific suggestion of a disclaimer in that case. It is quite evident that showing a data back in some pictures of a manual not dealing with data back is not the best way to illustrate products. However, I know what happens when doing operating manuals in a rush and before the actual product is ready for sale, hence I'm not so much surprised a less than perfect manual could end up being published and shipped.

That "please don't think US-centric" I didn't refer to your statement above. It was rather a general suggestion of a broader way of thinking to all those considering what they have in their hands as "the rule", while sometimes it can be the exception.
