A pre-pressure of 0,2 MPa (2 bar) is required to bleed the brake
system.
– Unscrew cap -1- from the brake fluid reservoir
– Connect the thread plug -1- of the brake filling and bleeding
device e.g. -VAS 5234- to the brake fluid reservoir.
– Provide a suitable catch pan for used brake fluid.
– Remove the dust caps of the bleeder valves at the brake cal‐
ipers.
– Switch on the brake filling and bleeding device and activate
the system with a brake fluid pressure of approx. 0.2 MPa.
– Fit the hose of the bleeding bottle -1- onto the corresponding
bleeder valve.
– Loosen bleeder valve.
– Extract as much brake fluid as possible until even the smallest
air bubbles have escaped.
– Close vent valve.
– Repeat this procedure for all brake calipers in the prescribed
sequence until the brake system is fully bled.
Bleeding sequence
1. Front left brake caliper
2. Front right brake caliper
3. Rear left brake caliper
4. Rear right brake caliper
– Inspect pedal position and idle travel at brake pedal. Idle trav‐
el: max. 1/3 of pedal travel.
– Repeat the whole procedure if necessary (several times), until
perfect bleeding is achieved.
– After bleeding close the relevant vent valve and fit dust cap.
– Disconnect the brake filling and bleeding device .
– Disconnect the brake filling and bleeding device from the
brake fluid reservoir.
– Check brake fluid level in the brake fluid container, if neces‐
sary top up with brake fluid.
– Perform a test drive. While doing so, at least one ABS adjust‐
ment must be carried out on vehicles with ABS!
