Yes, order an Owner's Manual for whatever year you have (you didnt say). The reprints are available everywhere and are very inexpensive. They explain all those little things you need to get to know your car.

They're copyrighted material. Break down and order one. Read through it when you get it. You'll be doing yourself a favor.

Overrides under the steering column are headlight doors, wipers (electricial switch), and wiper door.

Have you found the jack?

Your soon-to-arrive owner's manual will show you where the jack is stored.
