NOTICE
Tilt & telescopic steering
Power steering uses energy from the
engine to assist you in steering the
vehicle. If the engine is off or if the
power steering system becomes
inoperative, the vehicle may still be
steered, but it will require increased
steering effort.
A tilt steering column allows you to
adjust the steering wheel before you
drive. You can also raise it to give
your legs more room when you exit
and enter the vehicle (if equipped).
If the power steering drive belt
breaks or if the power steering
pump malfunctions, the steering
effort will greatly increase.

idle for two or three minutes to
warm up the fluid.
• After adjusting, push
the
steering wheel both up and
