Note: This feature only functions when you switch the engine on.
Touch this icon to switch the heated steering wheel on and off. It takes about 5 minutes to warm the steering wheel to 74°F in
temperatures as low as -4°F. The wheel maintains an approximate temperature of 90°F and operates independently from the heated
seats and other climate-control functions. The heating element is in between the leather covering and foam core to help provide
maximum heat without adversely affecting the feel of the steering wheel.
Note: The heated steering wheel may remain on after remote starting the vehicle, based on your remote start settings. The heated
steering wheel may also turn on when you start your vehicle, if it was on when you switched your vehicle off.
Note: For steering wheels with wood trim, the heating feature will not heat the wheel between the 10 and 2 o'clock positions.
