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 be

fore 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.
For information on use with the Remote Start
syste m

, see Ú page 19.
SEATS
Seats are a part of the Occupant Restraint system
of the vehicle.
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.
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 mate
-
rial. This may cause the steering wheel heater
to over h

eat.
WARNING!
It is dangerous to ride in a cargo area, inside
or outside of a vehicle. In a collision, people
riding in these areas are more likely to be seri -
ously injured or killed.

AUTOMATIC HIGH BEAM HEADLAMP
C
ONTROL — IF EQUIPPED
The Automatic High Beam Headlamp Control
system provides increased forward lighting at night
