Power Steering Fluid Check and Top Up

Power steering fluid is highly toxic. Keep
containers sealed and out of the reach
of children. If accidental consumption of
fluid is suspected, seek medical attention
immediately.
If power steering fluid should come into
contact with the skin or eyes,
immediately with plenty of water.
The fluid level should be checked every service. This
should be done before the engine is started when the
system is cold and with the front wheels pointing straight
ahead.
Wipe the filler cap clean to prevent dirt from entering
the reservoir. Remove the filler cap and, using a clean
lint-free cloth, wipe the dipstick clean. Refit the cap fully
and remove again to check the fluid level. If necessary,
top up with a fluid meeting specification until the level is
between the upper and lower marks on the dipstick (see
illustration).
Note: 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.
