What level of Japanese JLPT would you consider when trying to read an appliance manual?

I'm trying to fit my language learning into my busy schedule and trying to give myself a small goal. I dont see myself at this moment going for a JLPT test, but i do use it as a guide for proficiency. So my question again is, What JLPT level do you beleive is necessary to read through a Microwave or Fridge manual?

  1. I passed the N2 and found the manual for my induction stove quite challenging, but looking up all the words it was doable

  2. Depends how much you are willing to use a dictionary. With zero dictionary use, probably high N2, or N1. With dictionary use, probably N4 is plenty.

  3. N3. Maybe even N4. Likely to be lotos of unknown vocabulary but the grammar should not be difficult.
