Checking after bleeding

Information 

• If the pedal travel is too long or the pedal feels too soft when applied, carry out the following procedure  .
• Two workers are required for this  .
• Also carry out this procedure if the brake hydraulic system was largely empty  .

Connect bleeding device to the brake fluid reservoir. Switch on the bleeding device. Bleeding pressure is approx. 2.0 bar.

1. Open bleeder valve at rear on right-hand side, then push the brake pedal all the way down about 5 times and tap the brake calliper gently several times with a rubber hammer during the bleeding process.
2. Hold for 2 - 3 seconds after each depression, then release pedal slowly. After applying pedal for the fifth time, hold pedal down and close bleeder valve.
3. Repeat this procedure in the sequence rear left/front right/front left.
4. Tighten the bleeder valves to the specified tightening torque and remove the bleeder hoses.
5. Remove bleeding device from brake fluid reservoir; correct brake fluid level is necessary.
6. Generate vacuum in the brake booster by starting the engine. Check brake-pedal travel and pedal feel.
