Brake bleeding sequence 87 non ABS 200

My 245 is almost ready to get on the road. I replaced the rotors, calipers and pads and I'm going to flush any remaining fluid out of the system, which means I've got to refill the M/C and bleed everything. I'm hoping to have it rolling over the weekend.

I read in the Bentley manual that you bleed these a side at a time rather than going from most distant to closest wheel that is standard on most cars. However, the Volvo Problem Solver shows a different pattern, starting on the left rear to the left front and then over to the right front for one bleeder, then right rear, right front and to the left front for one bleeder, I can't show the sequence without posting the diagram.

Which one is right?
