The engine must be switched off for at least 10 minutes. Open bleed screws carefully so that the hydraulic fluid can drain out slowly to prevent the body from dropping too rapidly.

The pressure can be relieved separately for the front axle (respective bleed screws), rear axle (respective bleed screws) or for the respective suspension strut (respective bleed screw).

Collect hydraulic fluid which runs out in a suitable container and dispose of it.

Use the circuit's bleed screw to drain the hydraulic fluid.
