Power Steering Fluid - Chevrolet Optra 2004 Owner's Manual

Power Steering Fluid

When to Check Power Steering Fluid
The power steering fluid reservoir is located toward the
front of the engine compartment on the driver's side
of the vehicle. See Engine Compartment Overview on
page 5-12 for reservoir location.
It is not necessary to regularly check power steering
fluid unless you suspect there is a leak in the system or
you hear an unusual noise. A fluid loss in this system
could indicate a problem. Have the system inspected
and repaired.
How to Check Power Steering Fluid
Turn the key off and let the engine compartment cool
down. Then check the fluid level.
The level should be between the MIN (B) and MAX (A)
marks on the reservoir. If the level is below the
MIN (B) mark, add the power steering fluid to the
appropriate level. Replace the cap and completely
tighten it.
