Possibly for the automatic or is it already incorporated in your existing manuals? Thought had seen a separate manual somewhere but may have been in error. Do not own any hard manuals myself yet. The cd is really limited but maybe just me. The hayes type manual limited again but possibly slightly better than nothing. But what do I know? Thought about suggesting my wife give me some manuals for christmas but she thinks a hard time is more appropiate as am thinking of buying a couple of 240ds before christmas. (called living on the edge I think, must check it out with my therapist)
