Default Manual/instructions for Swan SWR-1A meter?

Someone recently gave me a cute little SWAN SWR-1A dual-meter, but,
beyond connecting xmtr and antenna or dummy load, I don't have the
slightest idea how to operate it. It has NO switches and only one
knob and a mark labeled "set" on the power meter.

Is it so simple that I should not NEED instructions?

I have a question. Why would you even need a tuner, much less and SWR meter for a Swan? They will tune anything from 35 to 500 ohms through the PI network. Any SWR below 4 to 1 is good. I thought they were the original "plug and play" devices
