	Checking
1	Operate brake pedal several times until vacuum in brake booster (16) is reduced
2	Connect testing unit (030) to brake booster	Measuring connection (031) for checking check valve (17) or brake booster (16).	AR43.10-P-0024-01I

		Test values for brake booster	*BE43.10-P-1001-01A
		Test values for brake booster	*BE43.10-P-1002-01A
3	Connect pressure tester (051) with connection fitting to brake caliper	Pressure tester, see GOTIS http://gotis.aftersales.daimlerchrysler.com After testing, only bleed the brake caliper to which the pressure tester was connected.
		Front axle bleed screw	*BA42.10-P-1002-10G
		Rear axle bleed screw	*BA42.10-P-1002-12G
4	Attach pedal force meter (060) to brake pedal	Pedal force meter, see GOTIS http://gotis.aftersales.daimlerchrysler.com
5	Start engine and create a vacuum of 0.75 to 0.80 bar by accelerating and then suddenly releasing the accelerator pedal	If the vacuum is considerably lower or if the vacuum drops immediately, the O-ring between the brake booster and master brake cylinder may be damaged or the non-return valve in the vacuum line may be defective: ↓
		Checking check valve	AR43.10-P-0023I
		Remove, install master brake cylinder, install new O-ring	AR42.10-P-0300I
6	Apply specified force to the brake pedal and read line pressure	To cover measurement errors as far as possible (wrong force on brake pedal, wrong vacuum) and measurement scatter of the gauges, a tolerance of ±10 bar on the specified value is permissible.	*BE43.10-P-1003-01A
		The measured value must be within the value range.
7	Disconnect testing unit (030) from brake booster	Vacuum tester	Figure
