Quick Q: Radiator bleeding

[jimxms]

I've been reading mixed instructions as to whether the fan should be on FULL or LOW with the temperature set to HOT. Any ideas peeps?

Think that the idea of having the heater set to hot is so that it circulates the water around the heater matrix, doubt it would make much difference as to what setting the fan was on.

Cool, that's what I like to hear as I just did it with the fans off, only to come back and read that they _should_ have been on.

Does this fount of manufacturer's wisdom offer any explanation for this strange requirement? At worst you can always re-bleed but the only purpose of the fan(s) is to speed up the airflow over the heating surface.

No idea, but bottom line is I HAVE HEAT coming through my vents now. No longer do I have to drive to work with ice cold air coming through the vents when its 4c outside
