Default Complete Flush Brake Fluid

Hi guys,
I have a LR3 05 HSE and I will be doing a complete flush brake fluid. From all the information I have gathered I think the following are the steps I need to follow.

1- Engine on
2- Pump brake pedal
3- Engine off
4- Disconnect connector on top of brake fluid lid
5- Remove brake fluid lid
5- Fill brake reservoir with new brake fluid to Max
6- Close brake fluid lid
7- Connect a pipe on your RR bleed nipple to a empty container
8- Undo the bake bleed nipple
9- Gently press the brake pedal all the way down and let it return to the top several times
10- Make sure that brake reservoir is not getting empty
11- Confirm that new brake fluid is now going to the bleed container
12- On the last pumped brake pedal hold it down and then tighten bleed nipple
13- Let the brake pedal return to top
14- Repeat the same steps from 5 to 13 now with RL then FR and then FL bleed nipple
15- Connect connector on top of brake fluid lid

Am I missing something?
Am I doing something extra that is not needed?

Thanks in advance, Roberto

I have an 06 LR3 SE. Can I assume the procedure is the same?

I use Pentosin DOT4 LV (1.5L)
