NOTE
The power steering system is inoperable
l
when the power steering malfunction
indicator light illuminates. Steering is
possible, but requires more physical effort.
Repeatedly jerking the steering wheel left

and right while the vehicle is stopped or
moving extremely slowly will cause the
power steering system to go into protective
mode which will make the steering feel
heavy, but this does not indicate a
malfunction. If this occurs, park the vehicle
safely and wait a few minutes for the system
to return to normal.
