Message very simple.

1. uncover the black plastic mound behind passenger seat.
2. there are two 10mm nipples on actuator (front, rear).
3. attach a clear tubing to the nipple to drain fluid.
4. pump brakes until pressure builds and hold it down.
5. quickly release and close the nipple with a 10mm wrench.

repeat process. any white bubbles, or foam you see is all air that will soften your brake pressure. you need to repeat this until you see only the yellow brake fluid, with no bubbles.

the procedure for caliper bleeding is simple too. just follow the same technique with the nipple on the brake caliper for each wheel. also, its important to keep an eye out for the level of brake fluid you have. you don't want it to drain it out and accidently pump air back into the lines.
