Power steering fluid level

If fluid has to be added, only use DOT4 classification. Tutela TOP4 270°C, which is used inititally, is particularly recommended.

Avoid the brake fluid, which is particularly corrosive, from coming into contact with the paintwork. If it does, was immediately with water.
The symbol , on the container, identifies synthetic type brake fluids, distinguishing them from mineral types. The use of mineral type fluids irreparably damages the rubber seals in the braking system.

Power steering fluid level

Check that, with the vehicle on a flat surface and the engine cold, the fluid level is between the MIN and MAX references on the dip stick in the tank cap.

In order to carry out the check, clean the dip stick, fully tighten the cap, undo it and check the level.

When the fluid is hot it may exceed the MAX level.

If necessary,, add fluid, making sure that it has the same characteristics as the fluid already present in the system.

Start up the engine and wait until the level of the fluid in the tank stabilizes.

With the engine running, turn the steering wheel completely to the right and to the left several times.

Top up until the level corresponds to the MAX reference, then retighten the cap.

Avoid power steering fluid coming into contact with the hot parts of the engine as it is inflammable.

• 30% Arexons DP1 and 70% water in summer;
• 50% Arexons DP1 and 50% water in winter.
