Pressure Brake Bleeding - Chery Tiggo 2009 Service Manual

NOTE :
Never allow the brake master cylinder to empty of brake fluid while bleeding the brake system.
Attach a clear plastic hose to the bleeder screw and
feed the hose into a clear jar containing enough fresh
brake fluid to submerge the end of the hose.
1. Turn the ignition switch off.
2. Have a helper pump the brake pedal three or four times and hold it in the down position.
3. With the pedal in the down position, open the bleeder screw at least one full turn.
4. Once the brake pedal has dropped, close the bleeder screw. After the bleeder screw is closed, release the
brake pedal.
5. Repeat the above steps until all trapped air is removed from that wheel circuit (usually four or five times).
6. Bleed the remaining wheel circuits in the same manner until all air is removed from the brake system. Monitor
the fluid level in the master cylinder reservoir to make sure it does not go dry.
7. Check and adjust brake fluid level to the MAX mark.
8. Check the brake pedal travel. If pedal travel is excessive or has not been improved, some air may still be
trapped in the system. Re-bleed the brakes as necessary.
9. Test drive the vehicle to verify the brakes are operating properly and pedal feel is correct.

brake fluid to submerge the end of the hose.
1. Turn the ignition switch off.
2. Open the bleeder screw at least one full turn or more to obtain a steady stream of brake fluid.
3. After approximately 120-240 ml of fluid has been bled through the brake circuit and an air-free flow is main-
tained in the clear plastic hose and jar, close the bleeder screw.
4. Repeat this procedure at all the remaining bleeder screws.
5. Check and adjust brake fluid level to the MAX mark on the reservoir.
