Power Steering — Fluid Check
Check the fluid level in the power steering fluid reservoir
at the specified intervals. Refer to “Maintenance Sched-
ules” in this manual.
Check the fluid HOT with the engine OFF.
WARNING!
Fluid level should be checked with the engine off to
prevent injury from moving parts and on a level
surface to insure accurate fluid level reading.
If adding fluid, use only the manufacturer’s recom-
mended fluid as it is specially formulated for minimum
effect on the rubber hoses in the power steering system.
Refer to “Fluids, Lubricants and Genuine Parts” in this
section for the correct fluid type.
Before removing the reservoir cap, wipe the outside of
the cap and reservoir so that no dirt can fall into the
reservoir
Add fluid to bring the level up to the requirements
described on the reservoir. Do not overfill. Wipe any
spilled fluid from all surfaces with a clean cloth.
