5.5 BLEEDING THE RAS-EC STEERING CIRCUIT
Bleeding the RAS-EC steering circuit
1. Gently turn the steering wheel in both
directions, if the level in the reservoir hardly
drops, if at all.

It is possible that the system fails at the
slightest steering movement. The yellow
warning will be displayed on the DIP and the
trailing axle will no longer steer. In the case
of a failure, switch the vehicle ignition off and
on again.
Note:
The foam that develops during bleeding will
have disappeared after the test drive.
2. Check the steering oil level and run the
engine at idling speed for a couple of
minutes.
3. Gently turn the steering wheel in both
directions and check the oil level. Top up, if
necessary.
