 Answers
The most direct are the imperatives (
Speak to ...
 , 
Use ...
 , 
Contact ...
). If not used 
in an appropriate situation or with appropriate intonation, direct instructions 
using the imperative can seem rude. The most indirect is 
Would you mind ... ?
 This 
makes the instruction seem more polite.
