Do not adjust the steering column while

injury or death.
Heated Steering Wheel
If your vehicle is equipped with a heated
steering wheel, it contains a heating element
that will keep your hands warm in cold
weather. The heated steering wheel has only
one temperature setting. Once the heated
steering wheel has been turned on, it can
operate for an average of 80 minutes or more
before automatically shutting off. This time
may vary depending on environmental tem-
peratures. 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 within the Uconnect system. You can
gain access to the control button through the
climate screen or the controls screen.
Press the heated steering wheel button
once to turn the heating element on.
Press the heated steering wheel button
a second time to turn the heating element
off.
NOTE:
The engine must be running for the heated
steering wheel to operate.
Vehicles With Remote Start If Equipped
On models that are equipped with remote
start, the heated steering wheel can be pro-
grammed to come on during a remote start
through the Uconnect system. Refer to
“Uconnect Settings” in “Multimedia” in the
Owner’s Manual for further information.
WARNING!
Persons who are unable to feel pain to the
skin because of advanced age, chronic
illness, diabetes, spinal cord injury, medi-
cation, alcohol use, exhaustion, or other
physical conditions must exercise care
when using the steering wheel heater. It
may cause burns even at low tempera-
tures, especially if used for long periods.
Do not place anything on the steering
wheel that insulates against heat, such
as a blanket or steering wheel covers of
any type and material. This may cause
the steering wheel heater to overheat.
MIRRORS
Power Folding Mirrors If Equipped
If equipped, the switch for the power folding
mirrors is located between the power mirror
switches L (left) and R (right). Push the
switch once and the mirrors will fold in.
Pushing the switch a second time will return
the mirrors to the normal driving position.
