Do not al
low the power steering fluid level in the power
steering fluid reservoir to fall below the minimum power
steering fluid level. Fa ilure to follow this instruction may result
in damage to the po wer steering system.
Make sure the engine is swit ched off as soon as the full
4 litres of power steering flui d has entered the power steering
fluid reservoir.
Flush the power steering system.
St art

ring slowly lock to lock 3
times at approximately 1 revo lution every 5 seconds.
Continue
to flush the power steering system until 4
litres of power steering fl uid has been added to the
power steering reservoir. This should take
approximately 30 seconds.

The variable ratio rack:
Incorporates teeth
of varying pitch and angle of contact, giving a variable pi
tch circle diameter which is a minimum
at the center of the rack and a maximum at the ends.
R e
duces excessive response to on-center stee
ring inputs during motorway driving.
Causes the steering action to become pro
gressively more
direct as the stee ring wheel is turned from the center
position.
Allows a low n u
mber of turns of the
steering wheel from lock to lock.

Steering Column Switches - Steering Column Switches

Description an
d Operation
Ig

nition Switch
The k
ey-operated ignition switch is located on the right-hand side of the steering colu
mn and has four positions.
Position 'O'

OFF. The only position in which the key can be inserted or re moved. With the key removed, the steering lock engages. The
key can only be removed when the tran smission is in the Park position.
Position 'I'

AUXILIARY. Certain circuits , i.e. radio and windows, can be operat ed without switching on the ignition.
Position 'II'

The wiper and washer switch i s
on the righ
t-hand side of the steering column and controls the fo llowing functions when the
ignition switch in position II.
In the OFF position:
The windscreen wiper is stationary and in the parked positio
n.
In the intermittent wipe position:
The wi per ope
rates intermittently, with
a variable time delay between wipes.
The time del
ay can be varied by rotating the column sw
itch collar, which has six positions and varies the delay
between two and 20 seconds. The collar is turned counter-clockwise to increase the delay.
In the normal speed position:
The wiper oper a
tes continuously at normal speed.
In the high speed position:
The wiper ope r
ates continuously at high speed.
Flick wipe operation:
Is obt
ained by pulling the switch
stalk towards the steering wheel.
F
e
atures a single wipe at normal speed if
the switch stalk is released immediately.
Fe
atures continuous wipe action
at normal speed while the swit ch stalk position is held.
Wash/W
ipe Operation
Th
e
wash/wipe function:
Is operat
ed by th
e button at the end of the switch stalk.
Op
erate
s the washers and wiper, while the butt
on is depressed, for up to 20 seconds.
Provides an addit
ional three sweeps of
the wiper after the button is released.
Provid
es a single drip-wipe sweep, four seconds af
ter the wash/wipe sequence has been completed.
Is disabled if the 'Washer Flu
id Low' message is di
splayed, but manual operat ion is still available.
