Power Steering Fluid Level Checking

Power Steering Fluid Level Checking

- Do not run the engine and turn the front wheels to the straight ahead position.

Checking Fluid Cold

- Remove the cap.

- Wipe the dipstick off with a clean cloth.

- Install the cap hand tight and remove it again.

• The cap must be fully screwed on in order to obtain an accurate fluid level reading.

- Check fluid level: Level must be around the "MIN" mark (up to 2 mm above or below the mark).





Checking Fluid at Operating Temperature (from Approximately 50° C (122° F))

- Check the fluid level: Level must be between the "MIN" and "MAX" marks.





• Fluid must be removed if the level is above the specified range.

• If the fluid level is below the aforementioned area, then the steering system must be checked for leaks. It is not sufficient to merely top off the fluid.

• Do not reuse drained fluid.
