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
up to 120 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.
Vehicles Equipped With Remote Start
On models that are equipped with remote start, the heated steering wheel can be
programmed to come on during a remote start through the Uconnect system. Refer to
“Uconnect Settings” in “Understanding Y our Instrument Panel” in the Owner’ s Manual
on the DVD for further information.
WARNING!
• Persons who are unable to feel pain to the skin because of advanced age, chronic
illness, diabetes, spinal cord injury, medication, 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 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.
