2. Manually turn the power steering pump pulley several times.
3. Turn the steering wheel fully left and right five or six times.
4. On vehicles with a gasoline engine, disconnect the central high-voltage wire. On vehicles with a diesel engine, disconnect the fuel shut-off valve connector attached to the high-pressure fuel pump (HPFP).
Caution: Be careful not to place the high tension center wire near the fuel rail.
5. Turn the starter on and off several times while turning the steering wheel left and right (five or six times for 15-20 seconds).
Attention: During air removal, it is necessary to constantly add liquid to the tank and ensure that its level does not fall below the lower position of the filter.
Attention: If you bleed air while the engine is running, air will be sucked in and enter the working fluid. Therefore, air removal from the hydraulic system must be performed only when the engine crankshaft is turned by the starter.
6. On vehicles with a gasoline engine, connect the central high-voltage wire. On diesel vehicles, connect the fuel shut-off valve connector attached to the high-pressure fuel pump (HPFP). Start the engine at idle speed.
7. Turn the steering wheel right and left until the air bubbles in the power steering reservoir disappear.

8. Make sure that the working fluid is transparent, without cloudiness, and its level in the tank corresponds to the normal position on the dipstick.
9. Make sure that the difference in fluid levels when turning the steering wheel left and right is very small.
10. Check that the difference in the levels of the working fluid in the tank with the engine running and not running is within 5 mm.
11. If the level difference reaches 5 mm or more, it means that the air has not been completely removed from the hydraulic system, so the air removal operation should be repeated.
Caution: If the fluid level rises sharply after the engine has stopped, it means that the air has not been completely removed from the hydraulic system.
Caution: If the air in the power steering hydraulic system is not completely removed, extraneous noise will occur from the pump and control valve, which will lead to a reduction in the service life of the pump and other components of the hydraulic system.
