Mitsubishi Outlander: Power steering system
When the engine is stopped, the power steering system will not function and it will require greater manual effort to operate the steering wheel. Keep this in mind in particular when towing the vehicle. Never turn off the engine while driving. Periodically check the power steering fluid level.
CAUTION:
● Do not hold the steering wheel in the fully turned position (either left or right),
for longer than 10 seconds. This can cause damage to the power steering system.
