3. Clean the contour of the filler cap with a clean cloth. This will prevent contamination of the hydraulic fluid.

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

Attention 

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. 

  1. If necessary, add enough transmission fluid (PN 14700016) to bring the level to “FULL”.
  1. Install the cap on the tank. Make sure the cap is tight.
