To unlock the steering column, push the control
handle downward. To tilt the steering column,
move the steering wheel upward or downward as

or
column, pull the steering wheel outward or push
it inward as desired. To lock the steering column

ing may result in serious injury or death.
Heated Steering Wheel — If Equipped
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 stay on for an average of
80 minutes or more before automatically shut-
ting off. This time will vary based on environ-
mental 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 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
second time to turn the heating element off.
If your vehicle is equipped with automatic tem-
perature controls with an integrated center
stack, or manual temperature controls, you'll
find the heated steering wheel switch on the
switch bank below the radio screen.
NOTE:
The engine must be running for the heated
steering wheel to operate.
