Checking power steering
uid level
The power steering uid level
must be checked periodically.
To do so, the following steps
should be considered:
- Turn off the engine and stop
the vehicle on a at surface.
- Check the power steering uid
reservoir level.
This must be between L and H
indicator level installed on the
uid reservoir cap.
Before adding the power
steering uid, clean completely
the power uid, reservoir cap
and the area around to protect it
from contamination.
If the power steering uid level
is low, add the uid into the
reservoir until the H level. If it is
required to add uid 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
uid level is low.
Only use the specied uid (refer
to the section of power steering
uids in the current chapter).
Penetration of any dust and
particles into the power steering
uid reservoir causes serious
damage in the power steering
system.

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.
