WARNING!
Always engage the parking brake when powering
down the vehicle if the ؆SVC 4WD؆ light is illumi-
nated. Not engaging the parking brake may allow the
vehicle to roll, which may cause personal injury.
POWER STEERING
Your vehicle is equipped with an electro-hydraulic power
steering system that will give you good vehicle response
and increased ease of maneuverability in tight spaces.
The system will vary its assist to provide light efforts
while parking and good feel while driving. If the electro-
hydraulic power steering system experiences a fault that
prevents it from providing power steering assist, the
system will provide mechanical steering capability.
CAUTION!
Operation in very high temperatures with a high
level of steering activity may cause the electrically
driven pump to reduce or stop assist in order to
prevent damage to the system. Normal operation will
resume once the system is allowed to cool.
If for some reason the power assist is interrupted, it will
still be possible to steer your vehicle. Under these condi-
tions you will observe a substantial increase in steering
effort, especially at very low vehicle speeds and during
parking maneuvers.
NOTE: Increased noise levels at the end of the steering
wheel travel are considered normal and does not indicate
that there is a problem with the power steering system.
