The power steering oil reservoir is located on the left side of your car, under the bonnet. Open it, using the support rod, and locate the reservoir (behind the windscreen washer fluid compartment).

Remove the clip from the lower oil hose and extend it by connecting another hose you have available, leading to the collection container (see video). Start the engine of your Kia Sportage and turn the steering wheel a few times to push the fluid out. Meanwhile, add the new oil. When you notice clean lubricant in the collection container, the operation is complete.
