Thanks for the year. It's a good idea to get the Model and Year up there with the subject (like here), since things change over time.
Here is the bleeding sequence recommended in both Bentley and Haynes:
Since the 240 has two separate hydraulic systems, the recommended sequence (below) bleeds each system separately.
On the front calipers, the upper two cylinders form an inverted "U", with a single bleeder at the highest point. The lower two cylinders form an upright "U", with bleeders at the two high points. The upper and lower cylinders are each in a separate hydraulic system.
(See illustrations in Bentley, p 500-1 and Haynes, p 9-13)
Either A or B can be done first:
System A:
1) Left rear
2) Left front - Upper piston chambers (single bleeder, top)
3) Right front - Upper piston chambers (single bleeder, top)
System B:
4) Right rear
5) Right front - Lower piston chambers (inner and outer bleeders, either first)
6) Left front - Lower piston chambers (inner and outer bleeders, either first)
