POWER STEERING FLUID
Check and Top-up
Power Steering
Check and top-up the fluid level ONLY with the
WARNING
engine switched off and the system cold, and
ensure that the steering wheel is not turned
after stopping the engine.
Power steering fluid is highly toxic - keep
containers sealed and out of reach of
children. If accidental consumption of fluid is
suspected, seek medical attention
immediately.
Wipe the filler cap clean to prevent dirt from
entering the reservoir. Remove the filler cap
and, using a lint-free cloth, wipe the dipstick
clean. Refit the filler cap fully and remove it
again to check the fluid level. Add fluid to the
reservoir until the level is between the upper
mark and the bottom of the dipstick. DO NOT
fill above the upper mark on the dipstick.
If power steering fluid should come into
contact with the skin or eyes, rinse
immediately with plenty of water.
Do not spill power steering fluid onto a hot
engine - a fire may result.
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.
Emergency operation
Any large or sudden drop in the fluid level must
be investigated by a qualified retailer.
If it can be established that fluid loss is slow,
then the reservoir may be topped-up to the
upper level mark to enable the vehicle to be
driven to the nearest qualified retailer for
examination.
If the fluid level has dropped below the lower
level mark, top-up the reservoir before starting
the engine, or damage to the steering pump
could result.
CAUTION: The engine must NOT be started if
the fluid level has dropped below the bottom of
the dipstick - severe damage to the pump could
result.
