An email you can adapt
The subject “Readable instructions for [reference]” identifies the request. Replace each bracketed field with a checked detail and remove any sentence that does not describe your situation.
Subject: Readable instructions for [reference] Hi [name], Could you send the instructions for [task] in readable text or an accessible document? The current image makes [specific detail] difficult to confirm. I would like the checked wording, including any deadline or preparation requirement, rather than guess from an unclear picture. Please identify the official owner if someone else maintains the instructions. I will wait for clarification before attempting a step I cannot understand reliably. Best, [sender]

Do not fill gaps in unclear safety or technical instructions with assumptions just to complete a process quickly.
What a useful reply should settle
