cold: the fluid level must be in the “cool” range on the grid. Top up fluid -G 002 000- if necessary.
at operating temperature (approx. 50 ° C): the fluid level must be in the “hot” range on the grid. Top up fluid -G 002 000- if necessary.

If fluid level has fallen below the grid range in question, the power-assisted steering must be checked (repair measure). It is not sufficient just to top up with fluid.
