AR42.10-P-0100-01MCC Check Brake System For Leaks

1 After bleeding the brake system, depress the brake pedal firmly several times so that the correct clearance is adjusted between the brake disk and brake lining.
The vacuum in the brake booster is reduced by depressing the brake pedal several times. When the hand brake is applied a hard, permanent actuation point must adjust at the brake pedal when the foot brake is depressed. If the pedal travel reduces after the brake pedal is pumped several times, the complete brake system should be bled.

2 Check all connections and screw joints for leaks.
3 If necessary replenish brake fluid in the brake fluid reservoir or correct brake fluid by draining at any bleed valve.
4 If the test drive is carried out after a repair to the hydraulic system of the brake system, then braking with ESP regulation is to be carried out.
