The following characteristics may be
observed during normal vehicle opera-
tion:
• The EPS warning light should only be
illuminated with the ignition ON
before starting the engine.
• The steering may become heavier
after turning the ignition switch on.
This happens as the system performs
the EPS system diagnostics. When the
diagnostics is completed, the steering
wheel will return to its normal condi-
tion.
The power steering system employs an
electric motor to provide steering assis-
tance to the driver. Unlike conventional
hydraulic systems, no engine driven
pump or associated pipes are required
which contributes to reduced operating
noise and increased efficiency.
The adjustable steering column permits
adjustment of the rake and height of the
steering wheel for the convenience of the
driver.
The position of the steering wheel should
be adjusted for maximum comfort and
control whilst permitting a clear view of
the instrument panel.
The electronic power steering provides
variable assistance according to vehicle
speed, steering wheel position and the
effort (torque) being applied to the steer-
ing wheel by the driver.
