Air bleeding

CAUTIONAlways use genuine Pentosin CHF202. Using other type of power steering fluid or ATF can cause increased wear and poor steering in cold weather.

  1. Jack up the front wheels.
  2. Fill the reservoir with the power steering fluid up to the level of 'COLD MAX' marked on the reservoir. CAUTION: Be careful not to start the engine. If starting the engine before performing the steps 3 through 4 , it may cause an abnormal noise during power steering pump operation.
  3. Turn the steering wheel from lock to lock 5 ~ 6 times for 15 ~ 20 seconds.
  4. Crank the engine 1 ~ 2 times by turning the ignition key very quickly from the 'On' position to the 'Start' position, but do not start the engine.
  5. Turn the steering wheel from lock to lock 5 ~ 6 times for 15 ~ 20 seconds.
  6. Start the engine and keep turning the steering wheel from lock to lock until air bubbles stop appearing in the reservoir with the engine idle.
  7. Check the color and level of the power steering fluid in the reservoir and then replenish the reservoir up to the 'COLD MAX' level as required. NOTE: If the fluid level moves up and down when turning the steering wheel, the fluid overflows out of the reservoir when turning off the engine or the fluid is a white color, it indicates that air bubbles have not been removed sufficiently from the power steering system. Therefore, repeat the steps 5 through 6 as required.

Checking Stationary Steering Effort

  1. Position the vehicle on a level surface and place the steering wheel in the straight ahead position.
  2. Start engine and turn the steering wheel from lock to lock several times to warm up the power steering fluid.
  3. Attach a spring scale to the steering wheel. With the engine speed 900 ~ 1100rpm, pull the scale and read it as soon as the tires begin to turn. Standard value: 3.0kgf or less
  4. If the measured value exceeds standard value, inspect the power steering gear box and pump.
CAUTIONAlways use genuine power steering fluid. Using other type of power steering fluid or ATF can cause increased wear and poor steering in cold weather.

  1. Fill the reservoir with the power steering fluid up to the level of 'COLD MAX' marked on the reservoir. NOTE: While conducting the following operations, keep replenishing the reservoir so that the fluid level is always between the 'COLD MAX' and the 'COLD MIN' marked on the reservoir.
  2. Jack up the front wheels.
  3. Crank the engine 1 ~ 2 times by turning the ignition key very quickly from the 'On' position to the 'Start' position, but do not start the engine. CAUTION: Be careful not to start the engine. Starting the engine before performing steps 3 through, may cause abnormal noise during power steering pump operation.
  4. Turn the steering wheel from lock to lock 5 ~ 6 times for 15 ~ 20 seconds.
  5. Start the engine and keep turning the steering wheel from lock to lock until air bubbles stop appearing in the reservoir with the engine idle.
  6. Check the color and level of the power steering fluid in the reservoir and then replenish the reservoir up to the 'COLD MAX' level as required. NOTE: If the fluid level moves up and down when turning the steering wheel, the fluid overflows out of the reservoir when the turning off the engine or the fluid has white color, it indicates that air bubbles have not been removed sufficiently from the power steering system. Therefore, repeat the steps 5 through 6 as required.

Scheme 9: Oil Pump Relief Pressure Test
  1. Disconnect the pressure tube from the power steering pump and then install the special tools between the pump and the pressure tube as illustrated below.
  2. Start the engine and turn the steering wheel several times so that the fluid temperature rises to approx. 50 ~ 60°C (122°F).
  3. Set the engine speed to approx. 1000rpm.
  4. Close the shut-off valve of the special tools and measure the fluid pressure. Relief pressure: 102(+3/-2)kgf/cm 2 (1280 ~ 1351psi, 8.8 ~ 9.3Mpa) CAUTION: Do not keep the shut-off valve on the pressure gauge closed for longer than 10 seconds.
  5. Remove the special tools, and than connect the pressure tube to the pump by tightening the eye bolt.
  6. Bleed the power steering system.
