Note:If adding fluid is necessary, use only the appropriate fluid. See the
Capacities and Specificationschapter. A low fluid level may indicate a
leak in the power steering system. Inspect the power steering system
and repair the leak or see an authorized dealer or a qualified technician
for service. See theScheduled Maintenancechapter for the
recommended service intervals.
Check the fluid level when it is at ambient temperature, 20°F–80°F
(-7°C–25°C):
1. Set the parking brake, and then start the engine.
2. Shift into positionNorP(if equipped) (automatic transmission) or
first gear (manual transmission) and turn the engine off.
3. Open the hood.
4. Clean the top of the power steering fluid reservoir.
5. Remove the dipstick from the reservoir and wipe the dipstick clean.
6. Reinstall the dipstick. Remove it again and check the fluid level.
Check the MAX. COLD side of the
dipstick if the fluid is cool or warm
to the touch (approximately
68°F-120°F [20°C-49°C]). The fluid
level should be within the FULL
range. If necessary, add fluid in
small amounts, continuously
checking the level, until it reaches
the proper level.
Check the MAX. HOT side of the
dipstick if the fluid is too hot to
touch (approximately 176°F–230°F
[80°C-110°C]). The fluid level
should be within the FULL range. If
necessary, add fluid in small
amounts, continuously checking the
level, until it reaches the proper
level.
When you install the dipstick, make sure to seat it and tighten it
securely.
You can also check the fluid level by looking at the see-through plastic
reservoir. Make sure that the fluid is within the minimum and maximum
fluid range as marked on the reservoir.
