It does not show the degree of brake application. When parking on a flat surface, place the shift lever in the PARK position (automatic transmission), R (Reverse) or first gear (manual transmission) first and then apply the parking brake. WARNING! Fluid level should be checked on a level surface and with the engine off to prevent injury from moving parts and to ensure accurate fluid level reading. Do not overfill. Use only manufacturer's recommended power steering fluid.
