Fluid level checks

POWER STEERING FLUID CHECK
Power steering fluid is highly toxic.
Keep containers sealed and out of
reach of children. If accidental
consumption of fluid is suspected,
seek medical atte ntion immediately.
If the fluid comes into contact with the
skin or eyes, rinse immediately with
plenty of water.
Power steering fluid is highly
inflammable. Do not allow power
steering fluid to come into contact
with naked flames or other sources of
ignition (e.g. a hot engine).
The engine must not be started if the
fluid level has dropped below the MIN
mark.
Seek qualified assistance immediately if
there is a noticeable drop in the fluid
level.
If fluid loss is slow, the reservoir may
be topped-up to the upper level mark to
enable the vehicle to be driven to a
repair facility for examination. However,
it is recommended that you seek
qualified assistance before driving the
vehicle.
Check and top-up the flui d with the vehicle on
level ground, with the e ngine switched off and
the system cold. Ensure that the steering wheel
is not turned after stopping the engine.
The level of fluid can be seen through the
translucent body of the reservoir.
The fluid level should be between the MIN and
the MAX marks.
TOPPING UP THE POWER STEERING
FLUID
It is imperative that the power steering
system does not become contaminated
in any way. Always use new fluid and
clean the area around the filler neck
both before removing the filler cap and
after topping up. Never return drained
fluid to the system.
Power steering fluid will damage
painted surfaces. Soak up any spillage
with an absorbent cloth immediately
and wash the area with a mixture of car
shampoo and water.
1. Clean the filler cap before removing to
prevent dirt from entering the reservoir.
2. Remove filler cap.
3. Using Mobil ATF320 PAS fluid, top-up the
reservoir until the fluid level is between the
MIN and MAX marks.
4. Replace filler cap.
