As picture, white plastic screw at the bottom of the rad. It can be unscrew by hand. Soon its unscrew the coolant should come out. Make sure you have some sort of bucket to catch the old coolants.

Now open the rad cap at the top, anti-clockwise. so the coolant should rush out like the tap.

After all drained out, i use a water hose and run it though the rad, to clean out all the dirty and rust.
