Default User Manual for ZG Grand Cherokee LTD - anyone?
I bought a Jeep
This ZG LTD has lots of buttons and displays but I did not get an Owner's Manual, so many I have no idea what are for.
I am pretty sure the car is a 1996 Grand Cherokee LTD.
I have workshop manuals, which allows me to fix some things but I wish I had the simple operation manual...

For example there is a push button under the driving (or fog) light push/latch button which I do not understand what it is for.
There is a button marked OFF under the rear whipper button, what does it do?
Than there is the display console above, some displays are understandable, other are quite cryptic...

A bit of help, anyone?

Thank you for reading this message

Cris.

The button marked OFF turns off the Overdrive.

If you Google around you may find one online, there was one many years ago, been 10 yrs since I had a ZG so memory isn't much help otherwise.

Thank you for the information supplied!

The things turned ugly today when I managed to trigger the alarm and had no idea how to run it off...
I had to disconnect the battery...

Hey bud, as he said below the switch under the rear wiper is to turn off the overdrive eventually leaving it to 4 gears only, the other switch under the front fog light switch on the right is a rear fog light switch, pretty much just brings on rear brake lights full time for poor visibility mate.
Cheers

If you set off the alarm by opening a window or door, or setting the panic alarm just hit the unlock button on the remote to shut it down.

Thank you all for your tips.
I went last week to Double Island Point Beach and there was a chap with a similar Jeep parked there.
I tried my luck and the guy was kind enough to rummage through the glove box and pull a "Grand Cherokee (RHD) Operating Information" booklet, which I photographed page by page.
I would be happy to prepare a PDF of it if this interests other people, too.
Is there an upload area here?
