BLEEDING AND FILLING THE BRAKING SYSTEM (Continued)
With the bleeding apparatus.
Connect the bleeding apparatus [1]on the brake fluid reservoir (1).
Adjust the apparatus pressure to
2 Bars.
For each circuit:
Connect a transparent tube onto the bleed screw, submerge the other end of the tube in a clean container.
Open the bleed screw, wait until the fluid is flowing out without air bubbles.
Close the bleed screw.
Remove the bleeding apparatus
[1].
Check the brake fluid level
(should be between «MINI»level and «MAXI»level).
Fill if necessary with the approved and recommended synthetic brake fluid.
Without the bleeding apparatus.
NOTE:Two operators are necessary.
For each circuit:
Apply the brake pedal to place the circuit under pressure.
Connect a transparent tube onto the bleed screw, submerge the other end of the tube in a clean container. Open the bleed screw, wait until the fluid is flowing out without air bubbles.
Close the bleed screw.
Remove the tool
[1].
NOTE:Recommence the process a second time if that is necessary.
Check the brake fluid level
(should be between «MINI»level and «MAXI»level).
Fill if necessary with the approved and recommended synthetic brake fluid.

BLEEDING THE BRAKESXSARA
Bleeding:The brakes can be bled either:
using brake bleeding equipment, in which case the pressure of the equipment should be set to 2 Bars.
or in the conventional way.
IMPERATIVE order of bleeding
Wheels:
Rear Right.
Front Left. Rear Left.

Tools.Bleeding equipment of type «LURO» or similar.IMPERATIVE: For bleeding the secondary circuit, use ELIT, LEXIA or PROXIA diagnostic tools.
Draining.
Drain the brake fluid reservoir as empty as possible using a syringe.
Disconnect the brake fluid warning lamp connector.Retrieve the brake fluid reservoir from its supply pipes by pulling upwards.
Finish emptying the reservoir of brake fluid.
Clean the brake fluid reservoir.
Refit the brake fluid reservoir.
Reconnect the brake fluid warning lamp connector.
Filling.Refill the reservoir with brake fluid.WARNING:Use only the recommended hydraulic fluids.
Bleeding.
NOTE:Two technicians are required.
IMPERATIVE:During bleed operations, ensure that the level of brake fluid is maintained in the
reservoir and top it up, use only new brake fluid.
Bleed each wheel cylinder, proceeding in the following order:
Rear right hand wheel.
Front left hand wheel.
Rear left hand wheel.

MANULLI calibrated seal (3).
Direction of fitting of the seal (3).
Before fitting the seal, amply lubricate the seal with air conditioningcompressor oil
(SP10). The condenser
(5)has a cylinder (6)incorporating the function of aircon
fluid reservoir and with integral filtering cartridge.The inlet
(7)and the outlet (8)of the condenser (5)are equipped with
new seals (3) (MANULLI).

SPECIAL FEATURES: AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM (R 134.a)
Compressor lubricant
ESSENTIAL: The compressor lubricant is extremely hygroscopic; always use FRESH oil.
Checking the compressor oil level
There are three specific cases:
1/
Repairs to a system without leaks.2/Slow leak.3/Fast leak.
1/ Repairing a system without leaks.
a)Using draining/recovery equipment not fitted with an oil decanter.
Drain the system as slowly as possible via the LOW PRESSUREvalve, so as not to lose any oil.
No more oil should be added when filling the system with
R 134.a fluid.
b) Using draining/filling equipment fitted with an oil decanter. Drain the R 134.afluid from the system in accordance with the instructions in the equipment handbook.
Measure the amount of oil recovered.
Add the same amount of
NEWoil when filling the system with R 134.afluid.
c) Replacing a compressor. Remove the old compressor, drain it and measure the oil quantity.
Drain the new compressor (supplied full), so that the same amount of NEWoil is left in the compressor as was in the old compressor.
No more oil should be added when filling the system with R 134.afluid.

Checking the compressor oil level (Continued)
2/ Slow leak.
Slow leaks do not lead to oil loss, therefore the same procedure should be followed as if there was no leak at all.
3/ Fast leak.
This type of leak causes both oil loss as well as allowing air to enter the system.
It is therefore necessary to:
Replace the dehydrator.
Drain as much oil as possible
(when replacing the faulty component).
Either before or during filling of the system with
R 134.afluid, introduce 80 ccof NEWoil into the system.
