POWER STEERING FLUID
LEVEL
G230A03A-AAT
The power steering fluid level should be
checked regularly. To check the power
steering fluid level, be sure the engine is
"OFF", then check to make certain that the
power steering fluid level is between the
"MAX" and "MIN" level markings on the
fluid reservoir.
NOTE:
Grinding noise from the power steering
pump may be heard immediately after
the engine is started in extremely cold
conditions (below - 4°F). If the noise stops
during warm up, there is no abnormal
function in the system. It is due to a
power steering fluid characteristic in
extremely cold conditions.
Recommended Fluid
Use PSF-3 type fluid
NOTE:
Do not start the engine when the power
steering oil reservoir is empty.
G240A01A-AAT
POWER STEERING HOSES
It is suggested that you check the power
steering hose connections for fluid leak-
age at those intervals specified in the ve-
G230A01JM
hicle maintenance schedule in Section 5.
The power steering hoses should be re-
placed if there is severe surface cracking,
pulling, scuffing or worn spots. Deteriora-
tion of the hose could cause premature
failure.
