CHECKING ELECTRIC COOL-
ING FANS
WARNING:
The cooling fan is controlled by
engine coolant temperature and
may sometimes operate even when
the engine is not running. Use ex-
treme caution when working near
the blades of the coolant fan, so
that you are not injured by a rotat-
ing fan blade. As the engine coolant
!
temperature decreases the fan will
automatically shut off. This is a nor-
mal condition.
The power steering fluid level should be
checked regularly.
To check the power steering fluid level,
be sure the ignition is "OFF", then
check to make certain that the power
steering fluid level is between the "MAX"
and "MIN" level markings on the fluid
reservoir.
NOTE:
Grinding noise from the power steer-
ing pump may be heard immediately
after the engine is started in extremely
cold conditions (below - 20°C). If the
noise stops during warm up, there is
no abnormal function in the system.
It is due to a power steering fluid
characteristic in extremely cold con-
ditions.
Recommended Fluid
Use PSF-3 type fluid.
NOTE:
Do not start the engine when the
power steering oil reservoir is
empty.
o The electrical ignition system
works with high voltage.
Never touch these components
with the engine running or the
ignition switched on.
