	 To enable this mode, use the command `M-x partial-completion-mode',
	or customize the variable `partial-completion-mode'.

    But at this stage the Customize interface has not even been mentioned.
    How could a user new to Emacs, who reads the manual back to front,
    understand this any other way than to set the variable without using
    Custom?  He does not even know about Custom's existence yet.

I don't think this is a problem.  The user will probably
look at the chapter on customization and find various ways
to do it.
