P500 Coolant flush

What is the best way to flush the coolant in a P500? There is no drain plug on the radiator. Is there a drain located on a hose somewhere or do you have to just unhook a hose? If you unhook a hose, how do you get it to flush? Is there a bleed valve somewhere to let the air out when you are finished?

Thanks for finding that. I tried searching "coolant flush", but I guess I should have used "coolant change".
