Down arrow from the tabs or move in any other way you want to read the material.  When you select a tab, the information on the page changes below the tabs and you read it as you do any web page information.

So how do you read the info that comes up?

Never assume that if you don't hear speech after taking an action on a web page, that nothing has happened.
Also, If you have JAVA script disabled or are using a script blocker, I don't think the tabs will work.  I believe they are JAVA script controls.

It probably won't say anything automatically.  If you activate the tab in that way, the contents of the page may change to reflect the name of the tab.

I am using Google Chrome and the web site is listed below.  There are
several tabs for description, specs and so on.  If I try to use insert
slash on the tab NVDA says nothing and when I follow by the left click
nothing happens.
