GENERAL INFORMATION
M2370000101478
The hydraulic power steering system has been
adopted.
The steering system offers the following features.
• The support method of the steering gear to the
crossmember is realized by the left and right
bushings with inner cylinders for improved steer-
ing feeling.
• The AWC switch has been installed on the steer-
ing wheel top surface for improved convenience.
• For some models, the steering wheel audio
remote control switch and steering wheel voice
control switch have been established for
improved convenience.
• The variable flow pump, which reduces the
engine loss by controlling the flow amount neces-
sary for driving straight ahead or cornering, has
been adopted.
• The flexible tube length in the high pressure hose
has been optimized for reducing the pump noise.
• The reservoir tank already adopted for Outlander
has been adopted, and the baffle plate inside the
cap has been improved to prevent oil leakage
under the high load condition.
