STEERING
To help prevent damage to the power steering system, never hold the
steering wheel at its furthest turning points (until it stops) for more than
a few seconds when the engine is running.
It is also important to maintain a proper power steering fluid level in the
power steering fluid reservoir:
•
Do not operate the vehicle with a low power steering pump fluid level.
See
Power steering fluid
in the
Maintenance and Specifications
chapter.
•
Some noise is normal during operation. If the noise is excessive, check
for low power steering pump fluid level before seeking service by your
authorized dealer.
•
Heavy or uneven steering efforts may be caused by low power steering
pump fluid level. Check for low power steering pump fluid level before
seeking service by your authorized dealer.
•
Do not fill the power steering pump reservoir above the maximum
level, as this may result in leaks from the reservoir. See
Power
steering fluid
in the
Maintenance and Specifications
chapter.
If the power steering system breaks down (or if the engine is off), you
can steer the vehicle manually, but it takes more effort.
