c. Reinstall the reservoir cap.
d. Remove the reservoir cap again and
look at the fluid level. If the fluid is
cold, the level should be in the "COLD"
range on the dipstick. Similarly, if it is
hot, the fluid level should be in the
"HOT" range. If the level is at the low
side of either range, add automatic
transmission fluid DEXRONrII or III to
bring the level within the range.
e. After replacing the reservoir cap, visu-
ally check the steering box case, vane
pump and hose connections for leaks
or damage.
CAUTION
The reservoir tank may be hot so be
careful not to burn yourself.
NOTICE
Avoid overfilling, or the power steer-
ing could be damaged.

Check the fluid level through the reser-
voir. If necessary, add automatic trans-
mission fluid DEXRONrII or III.
If the vehicle has been driven around 80
km/h (50 mph) for 20 minutes (a little
more in frigid temperatures), the fluid is
hot (60_C—80_C or 140_F—175_F). You
may also check the level when the fluid
is cold (about room temperature,
10_C—30_C or 50_F—85_F) if the engine
has not been run for about five hours.
Clean all dirt from outside of the reservoir
tank and look at the fluid level. If the fluid
is cold, the level should be in the "COLD"
range. Similarly, if it is hot, the fluid level
should be in the "HOT" range. If the level
is at the low side of either range, add
automatic transmission fluid DEXRONrII
or III to bring the level within the range.
To remove the reservoir cap, turn it coun-
terclockwise and lift up. To reinstall it,
turn it clockwise. After replacing the reser-
voir cap, visually check the steering box
case, vane pump and hose connections
for leaks or damage.
CAUTION
The reservoir tank may be hot so be
careful not to burn yourself.
