[Alain]  We could also say (better understanding of what it is ?) :
4. Methods for navigation and selection within menus with 4-direction devices.
I think the relationship between words would not totally be clear for 
me unless we simplify.

Is it really useful to say "guidelines on [...] methods"? The word 
"methods" by itself is simple enough and is already stronger and more 
meaningful than guidelines on methods.
