6.

According to steps 1 and 2, re-check the power steering
fluid  level  to  ensure  that  when  the  system  reaches  the
normal operating temperature and stabilize, the fluid level
reaches "MAX". if necessary, add proper amount of fluid.

7.2.8.8 Check Power Steering Fluid

–

Power steering fluid level is indicated through the scale on
the transparent power steering reservoir.

–

If the steering fluid reaches normal working temperature,
the fluid level should be between the MAX (maximum) and
MIN (minimum). if necessary, add steering fluid.

–

If the steering fluid temperature is low, the fluid level should
be at the MIN (minimum) mark. If necessary, add steering
fluid.
