⇒ Steering system informationThe power steering system not hydraulic, it is electro-mechanical. In both cases, the power steering works only when the engine is running.

The electromechanical power steering system automatically adjusts to driving speed, steering torque, and the steering angle of the wheels. It delivers extra steering force only when you are actually turning the wheels. The electromechanical power steering works only when the engine is running.
