NOTICE:
Your coolant high fill reservoir cap is a 15 psi

installed to prevent coolant loss
and possible
engine damage from overheating. Be sure the
arrows on the cap line up with the overflow tube.
Thermostat
Engine coolant temperature is controlled by a thermostat
in the engine coolant system. The thermostat stops the
flow of coolant through the radiator until the coolant
reaches a pre-set temperature.

When to Check Power Steering Fluid
It is not necessary to regularly check power steering
fluid unless you suspect there is a leak in the system or
you hear an unusual noise.
A fluid loss in this system
could indicate a problem. Have the system inspected
and repaired.
