HEATED STEERING WHEEL (for
versions/markets, where
provided)
The steering wheel contains a heating element that
helps warm your hands in cold weather. The heated
steering wheel has only one temperature setting. Once
the heated steering wheel has been turned on it will
operate for up to 80 minutes before automatically
shutting off. 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.
WARNING!
Persons who are unable to feel pain to
th
e 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 temperatures, especially if used for long pe-
riods.
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.
