I - PROCEDURE

WARNING
- Even a tiny air bubble can cause a malfunction.
- Incorrect bleeding may cause fault finding
errors and lead to an unnecessary part replacement.
II - GEARBOX REMOVED
WARNING
When removing the hydraulic clutch tappet, fill
the tappet with an approved fluid (see 21B,
Sequential gearbox, Sequential gearbox oil:
Specifications, 21B-82) before refitting the
gearbox, following the procedure described
below.
- Fill the reservoir (1) with approved clutch circuit fluid.
- Activate the clutch tappet manually (releasing/engaging
the clutch) until releasing/engaging the
clutch becomes very difficult, without releasing any
air bubbles. If necessary use the fluid (DOT4) to fill
the reservoir.
III - GEARBOX IN POSITION
- Drain the reservoir of approved clutch circuit fluid.
- Remove the bleed screw cap.
- Connect a transparent tube to the bleed screw, connected
to a syringe with an effective volume of 60
cm3 filled with approved fluid.
- Push the clutch pipe retaining clip and pull the pipe
so that it is in the bleed position.
- Slowly inject the fluid in the syringe, making sure
that the fluid does not overflow out of the reservoir.
- Carry out the Intake - Reflux operations slowly using
the syringe until all of the air bubbles have disappeared.
- Push the pipe back into the retaining clip.
- Perform an auto-bleed using the Diagnostic tool.
- Check that the system is operating correctly by carrying
out a road test.
- The level is correct when the fluid is halfway up the
reservoir.
