Fluid Level Adjustment
NOTE:
- The following procedure is for adding (adjusting) fluid if the lack of fluid level has dropped as a result of fluid leakage.
- Working with two people, one person protects the area around the sub tank using a cloth and adds fluid to the sub tank.CAUTION:
- Do not spread a cloth near the drive belt, otherwise the cloth could get caught in the drive belt when starting the engine causing damage to parts in the engine compartment.
- The other person starts the engine and idles it.
- Turn the steering wheel fully to the left and right slowly several times.
- If the steering wheel operation speed is too fast, the fluid may spatter from the filler port. Do not exceed the steering wheel operation speed reference value.
- 90 °/s
Steering wheel operation speed (reference value)
- Inspect the fluid level and, if the fluid level has dropped, repeat Step 1-3 until the level is between MAX and MIN on the sub tank while idling the engine.
