The documentation is in the same repository of the guix source code (see the 
doc directory).

https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/guix.git/tree/doc

I don't think there are specific steps to work in the manual, but a general 
section on Contributing (see 
https://guix.gnu.org/manual/en/html_node/Contributing.html#Contributing).

I guess you could create a patch and send it to guix-patches as decribed in 
https://guix.gnu.org/manual/en/html_node/Submitting-Patches.html#Submitting-Patches.
