Heated Steering Wheel
Although this is the third Volvo I have had with the optional winter pack, this is the first one with a heated steering wheel.
Picking it up a few weeks ago in the heat wave I didn't think to ask how the steering wheel heating is switched on/off. Had a wander through the controls but can't see anything. Can someone point me in the right direction please? Thanks.

On the Sensus screen for the drivers heated seat, press that and it opens up the tab showing the seat and the steering wheel.
In winter - buried in the options - you can configure both on from every start.

The tab you need is the temperature one at the bottom right of the screen. It's always there on the home screen.
You can use voice control and say "steering heat on" or 'Off" which works well but only switches on to the higher setting. If you configure it, in Winter, to come on with every cold start, you can make it default to on on any of the three heat settings.

Not just in Winter, my heated seats and wheel have come on a few times in the past week when the morning temp has been below 10°C!

Would be nice if we could set the trigger temp. The last few days up here have been a bit chilly, maybe 13 degrees C and it would be handy if it could be set to come on at a temp set by the user.

I just disable the function in spring and will activate it again in fall. Less work than fiddling with temperature settings.

I love my heated steering wheel - have it on from October to March!!!
However, I was just browsing the car configurator on the Volvo UK website - I thought that the heated steering wheel used to come as part of a "Winter Pack". The Winter Pack doesn't appear anywhere and I can't see any option to add heated steering wheel. I can see that heated seats appear to be standard and you can opt for heated windscreen instead of HUD but no heated steering wheel. Have they stopped allowing this as an option?

I have the winter pack but no heated steering wheel because that was part of the winter pack pro. Volvo plays around with packs like this but for sure you can find it as a standalone option.
