To check the fluid levelCheck the fluid level in the reservoir while the engine is idling.
Check to make certain that the power steering fluid level is
always between the “MAX” and “MIN” level markings on the
fluid reservoir and refill the fluid, if necessary.Fluid type
CAUTION
!

Do not let any petroleum-based fluid touch, mix
with, or get into the brake fluid. This will damage
the seals.


Be careful when handling brake fluid. It can damage
painted surfaces.


Use only the listed brake fluid. Different brands of
brake fluid have different additives, and these can
cause a chemical reaction. Do not mix brands of
brake fluid.


Keep the reservoir tank cap closed to keep the brake
fluid from evaporating.
