Power steering fluid – HONDA 2013 Ridgeline User Manual
Page 337

Pour the fluid slowly and carefully
so you do not spill any. Clean up
any spill immediately; it could
damage components in the
engine compartment.
A low power steering fluid level
can indicate a leak in the system.
Check the fluid level frequently,
and have the system inspected
as soon as possible.
Always use Honda Power Steering
Fluid. You may use another power
steering fluid as an emergency
replacement, but have the power
steering system flushed and refilled
with Honda PSF as soon as possible.
If you are not sure how to add fluid,
contact your dealer.
Remove the cover, then check the
level on the side of the reservoir
when the engine is cold.
The fluid should be between the
UPPER LEVEL and LOWER LEVEL.
If not, add power steering fluid to the
UPPER LEVEL mark, and put the
cover back in place.
