-    <para><filename>systemd-vconsole-setup.service</filename> is an
-    early boot service that configures the virtual console font and
-    console keymap. Internally it calls
-    <citerefentry project='mankier'><refentrytitle>loadkeys</refentrytitle><manvolnum>1</manvolnum></citerefentry>
-    and
-    <citerefentry project='die-net'><refentrytitle>setfont</refentrytitle><manvolnum>8</manvolnum></citerefentry>.</para>
+    <para><filename>systemd-vconsole-setup</filename> is a helper used to prepare either all virtual consoles, or — if
+      the optional <replaceable>TTY</replaceable> parameter is provided — a specific one. When the system is booting up
+      it's called by <citerefentry><command>udev</command></citerefentry> during vtconsole subsystem initialization.
+      <productname>Systemd</productname> also calls it internally as needed via
+      <filename>systemd-vconsole-setup.service</filename>. The helper calls
+      <citerefentry project='mankier'><refentrytitle>loadkeys</refentrytitle><manvolnum>1</manvolnum></citerefentry> and
+      <citerefentry project='die-net'><refentrytitle>setfont</refentrytitle><manvolnum>8</manvolnum></citerefentry>
+      internally.
+    </para>

+    <para>
+      You may want to use this helper whenever you change <filename>vconsole.conf</filename> to
+      refresh the settings on your consoles — either through the <command>systemctl restart</command> /
+      <command>systemctl start</command> command or directly through the executable.
