Call FCA and ask for one. Many people had to do that with the JKs, if your JL didnt come with one then Im sure FCA will mail you one. Took about a week to get mine for my JK
I'll do that, and I'm not convinced that everything is in the digital manual....

The official ones are up on FCA’s site, not just leaked.

But for a physical one you can request from FCA. The Owner’s manual is physical, the User Guide has been an included DVD for years.

Not surprised they stopped offering, but would’ve been nice to replace with a small (preferably laminated) 12 pg quick reference or something for those unfmailiar with 4Lo, swapping tops, removing doors, etc where a hard copy is handy.

You can request hard copies from their support site where the on-line versions are located. IIRC it used to be $29 or something like that for a printed verion, but you might be able to get the dealership to get it for free, or FCA support can likely be talked into it.

Direct links to the official Jeep online guides/resources are in this thread;

So I love that I have the manual in the Uconnect system. It's super convenient I used it the other before engaging 4 WHEEL High (wanted to be sure nothing has really changed) Anyway, it is really cool. You can touch the screen over the icon and boom, type in whatever you want to know and it will bring to that portion of the manual.
My question : So they don't give manuals with new JL at all? Do all touch screens have that option? Point is, I would like to actually read it, while on my couch, not on my phone, and not in the Jeep in the cold garage. Just curious...

My JL sport came with a manual in the glove box.

That's the User Guide. It's a condensed version of the manual. The full Owner's Manual is bigger and has more details (and also more generic fluff).

It has one of those as well, plus a bunch of other things such as Sirius XM radio info.

Is it up to the dealer to order owner's manual to include with the vehicle?

Just seems weird that some owner's manuals are included and others are not.

I remember the same scenario with my Honda. Mine included hard copies and a CD, while others on the Honda forum never received hard copies with their purchase.

Yeah, I want a hard copy of the manual. When the electrical system inevitably craps out, I want resource for roadside/trailside troubleshooting.

Waiting to hear back from the salesman

Can’t even access the online manual! Break in period must not be as important as some people think or Chrysler doesn’t care. If they did there would be warning flyers and you would think that they would supply the manual so you could read about the breakin period. Or at least be able to see the online manual!

Just found out there is a leaked manual on here.
