HEATED STEERING WHEEL —

The steering wheel contains a heating
element that helps warm your hands in
cold we

has only one temperature setting. Once
the heated steering wheel switch has been turned
on, it will stay on for an average of 80
minutes or
more before automatically shutting off. This time
will vary based on environmental temperatures.
The heated steering wheel can shut off early or
may not turn on when the steering wheel is already
warm. The heated steering wheel control button is
located in your vehicle’s touchscreen or on the
instrument panel.
