Power steering
The power steering system operates only when the engine is running.
If you lose power steering assist because the engine stops or the system fails to function, you can steer but it will take much more effort.
Do not hold the steering wheel at the fully locked position left or right for more than 5 seconds. This may damage the power steering pump.
NOTE
Right after the engine has been started and before it has warmed up, you may hear a noise coming from areas adjacent to the power steering pump which is located at the right-front area of the engine compartment. This noise is normal. It does not indicate power steering system trouble.
