To avoid damage to the power steering pump, don't operate the vehicle for long periods when the power steering fluid level is low.

NOTE:
Use specified power steering fluid.

Inspect the fluid level in the reservoir at each engine oil change with the engine off and cold. Add fluid if necessary; it does not require periodic changing.
