German term or phrase: Lieferumfang

Liebe Kollegen,

wie bezeichnet man in einer amerikanischen Bedienungsanleitung üblicherweise das Kapitel "Lieferumfang"?

Es geht um ein einfaches Gerät, das in einem Supermarkt verkauft werden soll und in diesem Kapitel werden die verschiedenen Komponenten aufgelistet, die sich in der Verpackung befinden.

Unser US-Übersetzer fand, dass "scope of delivery" zu sehr nach Übersetzung klingt.

Vielleicht "Included items" oder "Supplied items"?

Danke im Voraus.

(included in the) scope of supply

Explanation:
This is the US term and it is written on almost all product instruction manuals followed by a list of the items included. As a title, you would normally see as a heading, "Included within the scope of supply" or simply "Scope of supply".

package contents

Explanation:
That's what I usually see when translating user manuals from English. And in phrases like "XY nicht im Lieferumfang enthalten" simply "XY not included".

Looking through some of my own user manuals I find the following headings:

"First steps: Check the package contents" (Siemens telephone)
"Package Contents" (Canon camera)
"Supplied Accessories" (Panasonic CD player)

Notes to answerer

Asker: Diese Lösung hat mich auch überzeugt. Im Kontext unserer Anleitung passte aber eine andere Lösung nicht weniger gut. Dennoch vielen Dank.

What you'll find in the box

Explanation:
Everything depends on what sort of register you are aiming at - how "chatty" and informal you want to be. "Scope of delivery" is entirely correct in a technical context but is a bit stuffy for consumer goods. "Items delivered" is inappropriate if you buy the thing in the supermarket and so don't have it delivered at all.

"What you'll find in the box" is what is used in the manual for an electronic device I bought recently. Under that heading it then says: "Your [product name] box contains ..."
