Default C3 Bleeding air sequence?

Hi all.

First of all I would like to thank everyone involved in the answears of my previous questions.

Now I have another one....I remember having read about a special sequence to follow in bleeding air off the brake calipers but I cannot find it without having to paddle trough a lot of other discussions regarding the brakes etc.

Anyone remember the sequence?

Regards, Icyvette

You need to bleed them starting with the farthest one from the master cylinder and work your way toward it. So, you need to start with the passenger rear, go to the drivers rear, passenger front, then drivers front.
