Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Braking in Emergencies
Use your anti-lock braking system when you need to. With anti-lock, you
can steer and brake at the same time. In many emergencies, steering can
help
you more than even the very best braking.
STEEMNG
Power Steering
If you lose power steering assist because the engine stops or the system is
not functioning, you can steer but it
will take much more effort.
Steering Tips
Driving on Curves
It’s important to take curves at a reasonable speed.
A lot of the “driver lost control” accidents mentioned on the news
happen on curves. Here’s why:
Experienced driver or beginner, each
of us is subject to the same laws of
physics when driving on curves. The traction of the tires against the road
surface makes it possible for the vehicle to change its path when you turn
the front wheels. If there’s no traction, inertia
will keep the vehicle going
in the same direction. If you’ve ever tried to steer a vehicle on wet ice,
you’ll understand this.
The traction you can get
in a curve depends on the condition of your tires
and
the road surface, the angle at which the curve is banked, and your
speed. While you’re in a curve, speed is the one factor
you can control.
Suppose you’re steering through a sharp curve. Then you suddenly
accelerate. Both control systems
-- steering and acceleration -- have to do
their work where the tires meet the road. Adding the sudden acceleration
can demand too much
of those places. You can lose control.

An electric fan under the hood can start up and injure you even
when the engine is not running. Keep hands, clothing and tools
away from any underhood electric fan.
A CAUTION:
Things that burn can get on hot engine parts and start a fire.
These include liquids like gasoline, oil, coolant, brake fluid,
windshiefd washer and other fluids, and plastic
or rubber, You
or others could be burned, Be careful not to drop or spill things
that
will burn onto a hot engine.
Fluid Usage Label
Use the fluid usage label to identify the correct fluid you want to check.
GREEN: Engine Coolant
ORANGE: Power Steering Fluid
YELLOW Engine Oil
RED: Transmission Fluid
WHITE: Brake Fluid
BLUE: Washer 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.
What to Add
0 When the engine
compartment
is
hot, the level
should be at the
“HOT” mark.
0 When the engine
compartment
is
cool, the level
should be at the
“FULL COLD”
mark.
Refer to
the Maintenance Schedule to determine what kind of fluid to
use.
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.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Speed Sensitive Steering
This system varies the amount of steering effort proportionate to your
vehicle speed. Steering is easier at a lower speed for increased
maneuverability and parking ease.
As your vehicle speed increases, the
steering effort is also increased to provide a manual
like steering feel for
maximum control and enhanced vehicle stability.
The power rack and pinion steering system has a rotary spool valve which
directs hydraulic fluid coming from the power steering pump to one side
or the other side
of the rack piston. The integral rack piston is attached to
the rack. The rack piston converts hydraulic pressure to a linear force
which moves the rack left or right. The force is
then transmitted through
the inner and outer tie rods to the steering knuckles, which turn the
wheels
If hydraulic assist is not available, manual control is maintained. However
under these conditions more steering effort
is required.
