NOTE: On the 1.6L use 2 air relief plugs. On the 2.0L use an air bleeder cap on heater hose pipe in addition to air relief plug(s).

Before filling cooling system, ensure heater valve is open to allow coolant flow through heater core. See OPENING HEATER VALVE table. When filling cooling system, ensure air relief plug is loose to allow trapped air to exit system. See Fig 1 , Fig 2 , Fig 3 and Fig 4 . Tighten air relief plug after filling cooling system.
