Do not overfill the power steering fluid reservoir, as this can overwork the power steering pump and cause it to burn up.

Remove the power steering fluid cap. Check the fluid level using the dipstick attached to the cap.

Fill the power steering fluid to the appropriate level indicated by the "H" for hot and the "C" for cold.

If the car has not been started then the fluid is cold. If the engine has been running for five minutes or more, then it is hot.
