Bleeding the hydraulic system

WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.
CAUTION: Damage to the convertible-top frame if not running synchronously. Do not bleed the hydraulic system until the hydraulic cylinders have been removed from the convertible-top supports and the left and right drive levers have been removed.

The system has a self-bleeding feature. Three to four operations will bleed the system. After bleeding, check the oil level in the hydraulic pump reservoir and correct if necessary.

Bleeding requires the hydraulic valve to be closed.
