Checking Tire Pressure - Toyota Celica 1997 Owner's Manual

Checking power steering fluid
(with 5S-FE engine)
Check the fluid level through the reser-
voir. If necessary, add automatic trans-
mission fluid DEXRON II 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
(60AC 80AC or 140AF 175AF). You
may also check the level when the fluid is
cold (about room temperature, 10AC
30AC or 50AF 85AF) 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. Similiarly, 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 auto-
matic transmission fluid DEXRON II or
III to bring the level within the range.
To remove the filler cap, turn it counter-
clockwise and lift up. To reinstall it, turn it
clockwise. After replacing the filler 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.
NOTICE
Avoid overfilling, or the power
steering could be damaged.

Checking tire pressure

Keep your tire pressures at the proper
level.
The recommended cold tire pressures,
tire size and the vehicle capacity weight
are also given in Part 8. They are also on
the tire pressure label as shown.
You should check the tire pressures every
two weeks, or at least once a month. And
don't forget the spare!
Incorrect tire pressure can reduce tire
life and make your vehicle less safe to
drive.
