effort, especially at very low vehicle
speeds and during parking maneu-
vers.
NOTE:
Review the following to avoid
damaging the power steering system :
•
Prolonged or excessive turns of the
steering wheel can increase the
steering fluid temperature. This
should be avoided when possible as
damage to the power steering pump
may occur.
•
Fill the power steering fluid reservoir
once its level is under the ⬙MIN⬙ mark
in its reservoir. Do not drive the ve-
hicle with the fluid level below ⬙MIN⬙.
WARNING!
Continued operation with reduced
power steering assist could pose a
safety risk to yourself and others.
Check the following if the vehicle is
experiencing steering difficulty:
• Tires are properly inflated
• Tires are wearing evenly
• Loose or worn suspension compo-
nents
• Loose or worn steering components
• Proper wheel alignment
Driving Through Water
Drive carefully and slowly when going
through water more than a few inches
deep.
CAUTION!
The following guidelines apply to driv-
ing through water:
•
Never drive through standing water
that is deeper than the bottom of
your vehicle’s tire rims.
(Continued)
CAUTION! (Continued)
•
Water inside your vehicle’s engine
can cause it to lockup, stall, or
cause serious internal damage.
•
V ehicle traction and braking perfor-
mance will decrease while driving
through water.
•
Driving through water may cause
damage to your vehicle’s drivetrain
components. Always inspect your ve-
hicle’s fluids (e.g., engine oil, trans-
mission, axle, etc.) for signs of con-
tamination (e.g., fluid that is milky
or foamy in appearance) after driv-
ing through water. Do not continue
to operate the vehicle if any fluid
appears contaminated as this may
result in further damage.
