Bleed cooling system!
Note:
Do not open the coolant expansion tank cap during the
bleeding procedure.
Switch on the low-beam headlights to perform the
bleeding procedure. If the low-beam headlights are not
switched on, the ignition (Terminal 15) will switch off
automatically after a certain period of time and interrupt
the bleeding procedure.
1. Connect battery charger.
2. Switch the ignition on.
3. Switch on low-beam headlight.
4. Set heating to maximum temperature. Take back
blower to smallest stage.
5. Driving experience switch must not be set to ECO
PRO!
6. Press accelerator pedal for 10 seconds to floor.
Engine must not be started.
7. The bleeding procedure was started by pressing
the accelerator pedal and takes approx. 12 min.
(the electrical coolant pump was activated and
switches off automatically after approx. 12 min).
8. Then adjust fluid level in the coolant expansion
tank to maximum.
9. Check the coolant system for leaks.
10. If the ventilation has to be performed again,
deactivate DME completely (remove ignition key
for approx. 3 minutes). Then repeat from point 3.
Close coolant expansion tank.
Installation note:
Close the sealing cap (1) until the arrows line up.

When starting the bleeding system with engine off. The radiator fan comes on full blast during the duration of the bleeding process. Thoughts ?
