A method for pre-cleaning an endoscope including: connecting a liquid source, a suction pump, and a sealing element each to first, second and third channel openings. The channel openings are connected to the liquid source, suction pump, or sealing element. The first channel opening is at an end of a first channel section and at a distal end of the endoscope. The second channel opening is at an end of a second channel section and is a connection port. The third channel opening is at an end of a third channel section and is a connection port. The liquid source provides a gas-tight seal, has a holding chamber with a volume for holding liquid, and the holding chamber volume is changeable. The suction pump is activated for drawing liquid from the liquid source, wherein the holding chamber volume reduces during drawing of liquid from the liquid source.
