Near the bottom of the radiator on every car there is a small plug, sometimes it has a screw or bolt head. It faces the rear of the car.
Remove it and then let the fluid drain into a pan. Once the coolant has finished draining, plug the drain hole on the rad then fill the system up with water using the cap on the top of the radiator.
Run the engine for 10 minutes, then shut it off and let it cool down for 20 minutes. Once cool, remove the plug from the bottom of the rad again and let all the water drain out. Once empty, replace the plug again.
Fill the system with your new coolant, run the engine for 10 minutes, then let it cool. Once cool, top up the coolant again.
Now you're done.
