Yep, someone posted above. I must have skipped over it on the paper copy.

PDFs on an iPad with a proper Pelican case is so much easier. :)
Also are you looking in the correct paper copy? The owners manual is different than the users guide, is about three times thicker, and must be requested from FCA.

I have a question regarding the right dimmer knob.

It seems like it goes from very dark to kind of medium brightness. Then when you click it to the first top position, it is on full brightness. It seems like thereā€™s a big jump between the two.

Is that normal operation?
Assuming you mean the dash lighting mine is the same way and it kind of sucks. It's basically just an on-off switch as it goes from VERY bright to VERY dim with no modulation.

My dash dimmer has ā€˜infiniteā€™ control and I can set it perfectly for my needs.

With my JLUR the position past the click is to turn the dash lights on bright for daytime use when you have your headlights on (e.g. when wipers are on). This also puts the nav screen into daytime colour scheme.

Yes the PDF matches the paper copy. I should be ashamed, since I was born in 1961, before computers. LOL
