Default newbie to tuning, need help

UPS just dropped off my copy of HP Tuners! I can't wait to start playing with it, but I'm a little scared. I noticed that the program comes with no paperwork or users guide. WTF? Is this corrrect or was it left out by mistake? I'm new to the world of fuel injection and really don't want to screw anything up as this is my daily driver. Any help would be appreciated or at least some words of encouragement to put me ay ease. Thanks!

Some of it's in the program. Just hit help in any of the 3 programs andit will come up with directions. One of them doesn't have directions yet, I think it's the scanner but that was easy enough to figure out on my own. It's pretty self explanatory. I've been playing with it for about a month now.

just go slow, slow, slow... There is no "how to" because then it would make them responsiable if something went wrong. Just make small changes of stuff you understand and do lots of logs.
