Bleeding the braking system
VEHICLE PREPARATION
•
It is important to check that there is always enough brake fluid in the reservoir.
•
Using a bleed device facilitates these operations while, in the meantime, the "Brake fluid
replacement" operations are performed.
•
In this case, the bleed process must be accompanied by further pedal strokes and with the
bleed device connected (about 5 for each wheel circuit).
