•  Never  start  the engine  when  the
reservoir tank is empty.

Checking the power steering
fluid level
When adding fluid, be careful that
dirt does not get into the  tank.
Too little fluid can make the steer-
ing wheel heavier or  strange noise
can be generated.
The use  of the  non-specified fluid
could  reduce  the  effectiveness  of
the   power   steering   wheel    and
cause damage to it.
With  the   vehicle  on  level   ground,
check  the  fluid  level  in   the  power
steering  reservoir   periodically.  The
fluid  should  be  between  MAX  and
MIN marks  on the side of  the reser-
voir at the normal temperature.
Before  adding power  steering  fluid,
thoroughly clean the area around the
reservoir cap to prevent power steer-
ing fluid contamination.
Use only the specified power steering
fluid. (Refer to "Recommended  lubri-
cants and capacities" in section 8.)
If  the  level  is low,  add  fluid  to  the
MAX level.
