The steering wheel contains a heating element that heats the steering wheel to one
temperature setting.

The heated steering wheel control button
is located on the center instrument panel
below the climate controls.

button is located within the climate or
controls screen of the touchscreen.

ton a second time to turn the heating

ing wheel can shut off early or may not
turn on when the steering wheel is already warm.

physical conditions must exercise care when using the steering wheel heater. It
may cause burns even at low temperatures, especially if used for long periods.

• Do not place anything on the steering wheel that insulates against heat, such

as a blanket or steering wheel covers of any type and material. This may cause
