The bleed screw is screwed into a hose that is attached to the top of the gearbox. On some models, access to the propeller is possible only from under the car.
Unscrew the cap of the supply reservoir and check that the brake fluid level in the reservoir is at the max mark. When removing air, keep an eye on the presence of liquid in the tank, not allowing its bottom to be exposed, as air will again enter the system.
Remove the dust cap from the bleeder fitting and put a clean transparent hose on it, the other end of which must be lowered into a container partially filled with brake fluid.
Press the clutch pedal sharply several times with an interval of 2-3 seconds. Loosen the bleed screw half a turn while holding the pedal down. Continuing to press the pedal, force the fluid in the system together with air through the hose into a container. Once the pedal has reached its full forward position and fluid has ceased to be forced through the hose, screw the bleeder in until it stops.
Repeat these operations until the air flow from the hose stops.
While holding the pedal down, screw the fitting all the way in and remove the hose.
Wipe the bleeder valve and install the protective cap.
