Attention: touching the hoses of the frame system, bodywork or engine causes extraneous noise from the operation of the power steering system.
2. Check up reliability of connection of hoses of system of the amplifier of a steering.
Caution: loosening the hose fasteners may not result in a visible leak of the working fluid, but may cause air to leak into the system.
Note: When air is sucked into the system, the correct fluid level in the power steering pump reservoir cannot be determined. The presence of air in the system leads to cavitation on the pump blades, which causes the pump to run noisily and, after a while, to destroy the pump.
3. Remove the power steering pump reservoir cap.
4. Fill the tank with clean working fluid according to the FULL COLD mark.
Note: Always use only the type of fluid recommended by the manufacturer. Use of an alternative fluid may damage the hoses and seals in the system.
5. Connect the special plug to the hand vacuum pump.
6. Install the plug in place of the pump reservoir cap.
Attention: When performing the procedure for bleeding the system, maintain the correct fluid level in the pump reservoir.
7. Create a vacuum in the tank of about 68 kPa, but no more.
8. Wait approximately five minutes. During this time, the vacuum can decrease by 7-10 kPa. If the vacuum does not remain constant, diagnose the reasons for the drop in vacuum (see description at the end of the bleeding procedure). —
9. Remove the plug and vacuum pump.
10. Replace the reservoir cap.
11. Run the engine to idle.
12. Turn off the engine.
13. Check and adjust fluid level. Repeat steps 11-13 until the liquid level stabilizes.
14. Run the engine to idle.
15. Turn the steering wheel 180360 degrees in both directions five times.
Attention: do not turn the steering wheel all the way.
16. Turn off the ignition.
17. Check fluid level.
18. Remove the pump reservoir cap.
19. Repeat steps 5-8.
20. Check fluid level.
21. Install the pump reservoir cap.
