WARNING
Spilled Clutch Fluid:
Spilled clutch fluid is dangerous. If
it gets in your eyes, they could be
seriously injured. If this happens,
immediately flush your eyes with
water and get medical attention.
Clutch fluid spilled on a hot engine
could cause a fire. Be careful not to
spill clutch fluid on yourself or on
the engine.
NOTE
Low clutch fluid level may signal a
fluid leak. If you find a low fluid
level, have the clutch inspected.

Inspecting Power Steering
Fluid Level
Inspect the fluid level in the reservoir at
least twice a year (i.e., every spring and
fall). Although you may check the fluid
when it is hot or cold, you should check
it when hot, if possible, for a more accu-
rate reading.
If you check the power steering fluid
when it is cold, make sure the fluid
reaches the FULL COLD range on the
dipstick. The reading will only be accu-
rate if the fluid temperature is approxi-
mately 50 to 85_F (10 to 30_C).
Visually examine the lines and hoses for
leaks and damage.
Maintenance
The level must be kept between the FULL
HOT and FULL COLD marks.
Do not add fluid if the level is within the
FULL HOT range.
