The steering wheel heating element is made of copper wire and is sandwiched between the leather and the substrate material of the steering wheel. A vehicle with a heated steering wheel can easily be identified by the heated steering wheel switch located in the Uconnect® touch screen, at the center of the instrument panel. When the heated steering wheel switch is pressed to activate the system, the heated steering wheel switch illuminates and an International Standards Organization (ISO) symbol appears in the Uconnect® touch screen.
