POWER STEERING FLUID

Check the power steering fluid.
Refer to the scheduled maintenance
guide for the service interval
schedules.

Check the fluid level when it is at ambient temperature, 20° – 80° F (-7°
– 25° C):

1. Check the fluid level on the dipstick. It should be between the arrows
in the FULL COLD range. Do not add fluid if the level is within this
range.

2. If the fluid level is low, start the engine.

3. While the engine idles, turn the steering wheel left and right several
times.

4. Turn the engine off.

For E-450 and E-550 vehicles with the Hydro-Boost Brake
System, do not press the brake pedal after the engine has been

turned off. Pressing the brake pedal after the engine has been turned
off will give a false power steering fluid level reading.

5. Recheck the fluid level on the dipstick. Do not add fluid if the level is
between the arrows in the FULL COLD range.
