Raise and secure the front wheels of the vehicle.
Disconnect the ignition coil connectors.
Attention! Remove air only by cranking the engine with the starter. If you remove air while the engine is running, air may get into the working fluid. While removing air, constantly refill the tank with working fluid and make sure that its level does not fall below the "MIN" mark on the tank.
Turn the engine over with the starter several times (for 15–20 seconds), and turn the steering wheel five or six times to the left and right at full speed.
Connect the ignition coil connectors.
Start the engine (idle).
Turn the steering wheel left and right until you are sure that there are no air bubbles in the working fluid.
Make sure that the working fluid does not have a milky tint and its level is between the "MAX" and "MIN" marks.
Also check for a slight change in the level of the working fluid in the reservoir when turning the steering wheel left and right.
Caution! If the fluid level in the reservoir rises sharply after the engine is stopped, this means that the air in the system is not completely removed. If the air is not completely removed from the system, this leads to abnormal noise in the hydraulic pump and flow control valve, this condition leads to a decrease in the service life of the power steering system components.
Change in the level of the working fluid in the tank: within 5 mm.
Check the difference in the working fluid levels with the engine running and not running.
If this difference in levels exceeds 5 mm, it means that the air in the hydraulic drive system has not been completely removed. That is, the procedure for removing air from the system must be repeated.
