Remove the oil and coolant tank caps then the plastic plate under the caps. To open the bleed valve you lift it metal lever up and it will stay in the up position. Replace the oil cap.
Warm up the car a while and keep the tank full. Put the cap on run the engine at 2,500 rpms for 10 minutes to get the thermostat opened. Make sure the tank is still filled. Run the car at 2,500 again for 5 minutes and every 30 seconds briefly rev the engine up to 5,000 rpm. Then close the bleed valve.
Let the car cool overnight. Check the coolant level in the morning, add if necessary.
This is for a manual transmission car.
