Power steering
Checking power steering
fluid level
The power steering fluid level
must be checked periodically.
To do so, the following steps
should be considered:
- Turn off the engine and stop
the vehicle on a flat surface.
- Check the power steering fluid
reservoir level.
This must be between L and H
indicator level installed on the
fluid reservoir cap.
Before adding the power
steering fluid, clean completely
the power fluid, reservoir cap
and the area around to protect it
from contamination.
If the power steering fluid level
is low, add the fluid into the
reservoir until the H level. If it is
required to add fluid continuously,
consult an authorized SAIPA
company dealer for inspection
of the vehicle.
Attention
To protect the hydraulic pump
from damage, do not drive for
a long period of time with the
vehicle whose power steering
fluid level is low.
Only use the specified fluid (refer
to the section of power steering
fluids in the current chapter).
Penetration of any dust and
particles into the power steering
fluid reservoir causes serious
damage in the power steering
system.

Environment and vehicle
Grease, lubricants
Grease and lubricants are consisted
of elements such as sodium, calcium,
aluminum, barium and copper. In or-
der to increase the ability of grease
in reducing the wear, the compound
of disulphide molybdenum is added
to it. Therefore, be careful about the
leakage.
