Default JDM Forester 2006 - Brake Fluid Change Questions

Guys,

Please advise the correct wheel sequence of bleeding the brake system of JDM Forester?
1. Left front 2. Right front. 3. Left rear 4. Right rear. Am I right?

Thank you.

Having checked a few workshop manuals the sequence seems to vary for different models.
However for the Europe and General RHD "SG" Forester models it would be as shown in the MY05 attachment.
(dual circuits diagonally split)

Dual-Diagonal Brake System

For safety reasons, the hydraulic brake system is divided into two independent brake circuits. Two diagonally opposite wheels form one brake circuit. This means that each brake circuit acts on one front wheel and the diagonally opposite rear wheel.

If one of the circuits fails, the second ensures residual braking. This stabilises the car and prevents spinning by means of a negative scrub radius.
