# 12-10 Hydraulic Fluid Verification

Tools and Consumables

Transmission fluid (Lion part number: 14700016) if necessary

Procedure

Make sure the work can be done safely.

Open the hood and locate the power steering fluid reservoir (figure 2).

Clean the contour of the filler cap/gauge with a clean cloth. This will ensure that no contamination will come in contact with the hydraulic fluid.

Remove the filler cap and using the gauge on the cap, check the level of the fluid.

Use only approved hydraulic fluid. Do not mix fluid types. Failure to follow this instruction may result in deterioration of the seals, which may cause fluid leakage and loss of steering assistance.

If the gauge reads “ADD”, add enough transmission fluid (PN 14700016) to bring the level to “FULL”.

Install the cap on the tank. Make sure the cap is tight.
