Volvo brakes but what type?.....and how to bleed?

Hi guys, could someone let me know if they have heard of volvo 4 pot callipers that have 3 bleed nipples, what type are they? I dont think they are the 240's from the pics I have seen on here.
I need to know how to bleed them....if anyone can help.
 
Thanks

    As Matt said the 3 bleeder calipers are the normal Volvo 4 pot calipers. You have to bleed all 3 to get all the air out.
