Steering

Familiarize yourself with your vehicle's steering-related functions.
The steering wheel

Your vehicle has been designed to provide a responsive and intuitive steering experience. Be sure to adjust your driving posture and preferred steering feel before driving.

 Tip

Steering and driver support interactions

Several driver support features can affect steering. Read the manual sections about these features for a more complete understanding of how they may interact with and affect your steering experience.

Speed-dependent steering response

The steering resistance and firmness change with the speed of the vehicle. At low speeds, steering resistance is low for precision maneuvering. At high speeds, the steering adapts to be firmer.

Steering feel

You can adjust the steering feel via the settings in the center display. Steering feel affects the firmness of the steering wheel's turning.

Steering-related faults

If you notice that your steering wheel is abnormally stiff or if steering-related features1 are not available or working properly, it may be due to a fault related to the steering system.

If your vehicle notices a steering-related fault, it will notify you with a message in one or both of the displays. Be sure to read and follow the instructions in the message.

The instructions in the message depend on the nature and severity of the detected fault. The level of urgency is critical to how fast you need to act and can be communicated by the message and through the use of symbols.
