 background and automatically restart upon failure. The `siad.service` file must
 be placed in `~/.config/systemd/user/`
 
+To use the `siad.service`, first fill out `~/.sia/sia.env` environment variables with the
+correct values. You will need to initialize your wallet if you have not already
+done so.

+To enable the service: `systemctl --user enable siad.service`
