Power Steering

You should check the fluid level in

the power steering reservoir

monthly. Check the level when the

engine is cold. Look at the side of

the reservoir. The fluid should be

between the UPPER LEVEL and

LOWER LEVEL. If it is below the

LOWER LEVEL, add power steering

fluid to the UPPER LEVEL.

Always use Genuine Honda Power

Steering Fluid. If it is not available,

you may use another power steering

fluid as an emergency replacement.

However, continued use can cause

increased wear and poor steering in

cold weather. Have the power

steering system flushed and refilled

with Honda PSF as soon as possible.

A low power steering fluid level can

indicate a leak in the system. Check

the fluid level frequently and have

the system inspected as soon as

possible.

Maintenance

Turning the steering wheel to full left
