MAINTENANCE & CAR CARE Brake Fluid & Power Steering
Brake Fluid :
Check the level of brake fluid in the brake fluid container.
It should be between the Min. and Max. marks.
If not, then add brake fluid. Clean the area surrounding the cap
before opening the cap. Always use fresh brake fluid and tighten
the cap fully, otherwise moisture from the atmosphere will be
absorbed by the brake fluid, making it unserviceable.
In case of spongy or hard pedal or low brake efficiency, please
contact the nearest Authorised Service outlet and get the defect
rectified.
POWER STEERING (if installed)
Power steering is fitted for lighter steering effort and easy
manoeuverability, during driving and also help absorb the road
shocks. The system consists of steering gear box, hydraulic pump
and hydraulic tank. Pump drive is through the poly ‘V’ belt from the
engine. Power assistance is available during normal operating
conditions. In case of failure in the hydraulic system, the steering
can be operated mechanically to bring the car to an Authorised
Service outlet.
Drive slowly as vacuum assistance for brake would not be available.
Report any external leakage to the nearest Authorised
Service outlet.
