To do this, forcibly use special tool 9235 (Relay Pliers) to pull the radiator fan relays No. 20 and No. 22 out of relay carrier 1 (on the left side in the driver's foot well). 9. Insert the jumper into relays 20 and 22. Run engine for an additional 5 minutes at 2500 RPM, revving to 5000 every 30 seconds. Then shut down engine and allow to cool to 80 C. Open coolant cover carefully and top up."
Follow that by closing the butterfly bleeder valve and a final top-up if necessary.
If these steps aren't really necessary it'll make things simpler for me. Let me know what you think.

I think that is a bunch of mumbojumbo! I have never done it and never had a come back. What service manual is that?
