Note:

For vehicles equipped with Driver Memory Settings, you can use your key fob or the memory switch on the driver's door trim panel to return the tilt/telescopic steering column to saved positions DRIVER AND PASSENGER MEMORY SETTINGS — IF EQUIPPED.

Warning:

Do not adjust the steering column while driving. Adjusting the steering column while driving or driving with the steering column unlocked, could cause the driver to lose control of the vehicle. Failure to follow this warning may result in serious injury or death.

HEATED STEERING WHEEL

The steering wheel contains a heating element that helps warm your hands in cold weather. The heated steering wheel has 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 screen 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 screen.

• Press the heated steering wheel button once to turn the HI setting on.

• Press the heated steering wheel button a second time to turn the MED setting on.

• Press the heated steering wheel button a third time to turn the LO setting on.

• Press the heated steering wheel button a fourth time to turn the heating elements off.

Note:

The engine must be running for the heated steering wheel to operate.

For information on use with the Remote Start system, see Remote Start Comfort Systems — If Equipped.

Warning:

• Persons who are unable to feel pain to the skin because of advanced age, chronic illness, diabetes, spinal cord injury, medication, alcohol use, exhaustion, or other 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 the steering wheel heater to overheat.
