– Park the vehicle and shut down the diesel engine.
– Shut off the fuel connection to the intermediate tank. Move the service lever (7) on
the fuel supply control unit (6) by 45° backward to the SERVICE position. Thus,
fuel from the intermediate tank can no longer flow into the diesel engine.

– Choose in the line "Service fuel filter" option "ON". The R-Touch displays the
current fuel pressure in millibars (mbar). The fuel pressure reaches approx.
3,500 mbar after a certain period of time. If this value remains constant, the fuel
system is vented.
– Start the diesel engine. After it has been started successfully, switch the diesel
engine off again and set the option to "OFF" in the "Service fuel filter" line.
