Steering Your Vehicle (Power steering if
equipped)
[DR09200(ALL)05/93]
Your car may be equipped with power steering.
Power steering uses energy from the engine to
help steer your car.
%*
[DR09250(ALL)04/95]
If the amount of effort needed to steer your
vehicle changes at a constant vehicle speed, have
the power steering system checked. If the power
steering system breaks down (or if the engine is
turned off), you can steer the vehicle manually
but it takes more effort.
*
[DR09300(ALL)01/95]
Never hold the steering wheel to the extreme
right or left for more than five seconds if the
engine is running. This can damage the power
steering pump.

Applying the Brakes
[DR10000(ALL)07/93]
Your vehicle is equipped with a power front
disc/rear drum brake system that adjusts
automatically as the brake pads and linings
wear.
[DR10050(ALL)05/95]
If power assist is lost you can still stop your
vehicle by applying greater force to the brake
pedal than you normally would. The stopping
distance, however, is longer.

Brake Fluid
*
[SV31700(ALL)03/95]
Under normal circumstances, your vehicle
should not use up brake fluid rapidly. However,
expect the level of the brake fluid to slowly fall
as you put more mileage on your vehicle and
the brake pads wear.
[SV31800(ALL)09/93]
Check the brake fluid at least once a year. You
can do this by looking at the fluid level in the
plastic reservoir on the master cylinder. (See
Your Engine Typeearlier in this chapter to locate
the master cylinder.) The fluid level should be at
or near the MAX mark.
