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 switch has been turned on, it will stay
on for an average of 80 minutes or more before
automatically shutting off. This time will vary
based on environmental 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 in your vehicle’s touchscreen or on
the instrument panel.
