2. Start the engine and let run for a few seconds, then turn the engine off.
3. Add fluid if necessary.
4. Repeat the above procedure until the fluid level remains constant after running the engine.
5. When the steering fluid temperature is relatively high, the steering fluid level will approach to the “MAX” level.
6. When the steering fluid cools down, the steering fluid level may approach to the “MIN” level.
NOTE :
If the steering fluid is extremely foamy or milky looking, allow the vehicle to stand a few minutes and repeat the
procedure.
