3. ADD POWER STEERING FLUID
4. BLEED POWER STEERING SYSTEM

Check the fluid level.

Jack up the front of the vehicle and support it with stands.

Turn the steering wheel.

With the engine stopped, turn the wheel slowly from lock to lock several times.

Lower the vehicle.

Start the engine.

Idle the engine for a few minutes.
