6 Power steering fluid
Have the power steering fluid replaced by an autho-
rized dealer. At the time of fluid replacement, the fil-
ter in the power steering fluid tank must also be
replaced.
Recommended fluid:
Automatic transmission fluid
DEXRON II, DEXRON III type
CAUTION
When adding power steering fluid, be sure to
use fluid of the same brand as the existing fluid.
Mixing two or more different fluids will change
their properties and could cause a failure.
6.1 Checking and adding fluid
1. Stop the engine with the front wheels in the
straight-ahead position.
Prevent the vehicle from moving by fully setting
the parking brake and blocking the wheels with
chocks.
2. Check the fluid level in power steering fluid tank
located in the rear of the cab. The fluid level
should be between the “MAX” and “MIN” lines.
Also, check whether the power steering fluid is
dirty. If it is dirty, have it replaced by an antho-
rized dealer.
If necessary, tilt the cab to make it easier to
check the level and add power steering fluid.
3. If the fluid level is lower than the recommended
range, clean the surfaces around fluid tank cap
