POWER STEERING FLUID
I
How To Check Power Steering Fluid
Unscrew the cap and wipe the dipstick with a clean rag. Replace the cap
and completely tighten it. Then remove the cap again and look at the
fluid level on the dipstick.
When the engine compartment is hot, the level should be at the
“H” mark.
When the engine compartment is cool, the level should be at the
“C” mark.

What to Add
Refer to the Maintenance Schedule to determine what kind of fluid to
use. See “Recommended Fluids and Lubricants” in the Index.
I
NOTICE:
When adding power steering fluid or making a complete fluid
change, always use the proper fluid. Failure to use the proper
fluid can cause leaks and damage hoses and seals.
