1. Remove the engine fill cap.

2.. Open the heater air bleed.

3. Add coolant to the degas bottle allowing the system to equalize until no more coolant can be added.

4. Replace the degas bottle cap.

CAUTION: Care must be taken to ensure the accessory drive belt does not become contaminated with engine coolant.

6. Replace the engine fill cap.

Start the engine and turn the heater to MAX position.

9. Allow the engine to idle for five minutes, add coolant to the degas bottle as needed to maintain the cold fill MAX mark.

10. Reopen the heater air bleed to release any entrapped air and close again.

11. Maintain engine speed of 2,000 rpm for 3-5 minutes or until hot air comes from the heater.

12. Return to idle and verify hot air is still coming from the heater.

13. Set the heater temperature setting to 24? C (75? F) and allow the vehicle to idle for two minutes.

18. Shut the engine off and allow to cool.

19. After the engine has cooled, add coolant to the degas bottle to bring the level to the cold fill MAX mark.

How do you bleed my coolant system?

As you did not include engine or Year info I will give a general answer. Look on the top of the engine, most GM products with a bleed system have a small brass pipe thread plug in the top of a black or aluminum casting. This is the bleed point, loosen the plug or valve and add coolant to the system until it flows from the bleed, tighten up the bleed. Done. Repeat if needed.
