How do you top up the power steering oil in the Ford Focus?

Model: Ford Focus MK 1 - Years 1998-2004
Part: Power steering fluid

In order to top up the power steering oil of the Ford Focus, you need to open the hood to access the components located inside the engine compartment: on the left side of the compartment, you will find the reservoir containing the coolant liquid. This reservoir must be freed from its seat by loosening the screws that secure it inside its housing; once the reservoir has been removed, you will be able to locate the power steering reservoir below it. Once the oil has been added, you can verify that the power steering is functioning correctly.
