may vary depending on environmental tem-
peratures. The heated steering wheel can
shut off early or may not turn on when the
steering wheel is already warm.

located within the Uconnect system. You can
gain access to the control button through the
climate screen or the controls screen.

once to turn the heating element on.
• Press the heated steering wheel button
a second time to turn the heating element
off.

steering wheel to operate.

On models that are equipped with remote
start, the heated steering wheel can be pro-
grammed to come on during a remote start
through the Uconnect system. Refer to
