EATED TEERING
The steering wheel contains a heating
element that helps warm your hands in
cold weather. Depending on trim level, the
heated steering wheel has one or three
temperature settings. Once the heated steering wheel
has been turned on, it will stay on until the operator
turns it off. The heated steering wheel may not turn on
when it is already warm.
The heated steering wheel control button is located
on the left side of the radio screen or within the
Uconnect system. You can gain access to the control
button on the top left side of the screen by tapping
the temperature controls, which will provide a quick
drop-down menu containing the controls, or through the
Controls menu of the touchscreen. If your vehicle is not
equipped with the button on the side of the radio, you
can also access the control button through the Climate
menu.
One Temperature Setting:
●
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.
