WARNING Risk of accident  from vehicle starting off by itself when engine running. Risk of injury  (bruises and burns) resulting from working on the engine while it is being started or when it is running. Secure vehicle to prevent it from starting off by itself. Wear closed and snug-fitting work clothes. Do not touch hot or rotating parts. AS00.00-Z-0005-01A
CAUTION Risk of poisoning  from swallowing brake fluid. Risk of injury  from skin and eye contact with brake fluid Only pour brake fluid into suitable and appropriately marked containers. Wear protective clothing and eye protection when handling brake fluid. AS42.50-Z-0001-01A

REMOVINGINSTALLING Remove/install     
1 Depress brake pedal several times with engine switched off so that vacuum in brake booster (7) is reduced.    
2 Open engine hood and position upright.    
3 Connect vacuum tester (4) with test connection (2) to brake booster (7).   AR43.10-P-0024-01V

4 Connect test equipment (5) with connection fitting to brake caliper. NOTES
Use correct connection fitting (pitch, centering cone, etc.).
Leaks and measurement errors can otherwise occur.

Check valve/pressure in vacuum system of brake booster
If there is a problem,
↓
check, check valve (1).

      AR43.10-P-0023S 
7 Replace seal between brake booster (7) and master brake cylinder. If the specified test pressure has not been reached or if it drops off straight away and the check valve (1) is not defective.  
      AR42.10-P-0300S
8 Apply specified force to brake pedal and read off line pressure on test equipment (5). IMPORTANT In order to cover measuring errors (incorrect force on brake pedal, incorrect vacuum) and measuring equipment scattering, a tolerance of ±10 bar on the specified value is permissible. The measured value must be within the value range.
