NOTE:
If the power steering system has been serviced, an accurate fluid level reading
cannot be obtained unless air is bled from the steering system. The air in the
fluid may cause pump cavitation noise and may cause pump damage over a
period of time.
NOTE:
When adding fluid or making a complete fluid change, always use the proper
power steering fluid. Failure to use the proper fluid will cause hose and seal
damage and fluid leaks.
IMPORTANT: Hoses touching the frame, body, or engine may cause system noise.
