the bleed screw to purge the air. Then tighten the
bleed screw

N.B.
DURING PURGING FREQUENTLY CHECK THE LEVEL TO PREVENT AIR GETTING INTO THE
SYSTEM THROUGH THE PUMP.
N.B.
DURING THE BLEEDING OPERATIONS, MAKE SURE THE BRAKE FLUID DOES NOT COME INTO
CONTACT WITH THE BODYWORK SO AS NOT TO DAMAGE IT. FURTHERMORE, DURING THE
BLEEDING OPERATIONS REGARDING THE BRAKE CALLIPERS, MAKE SURE THE BRAKE
FLUID DOES NOT COME INTO CONTACT WITH THE DISC BRAKES AND WITH THE BRAKE
PADS. FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH THIS NORM WILL ENDANGER THE PROPER WORKING AND
EFFICIENCY OF THE BRAKING SYSTEM
