The heater controls should be fully open when draining and filling.
Add coolant until the level is up to the MAX mark or slightly above.

Start engine and run until hot. Check the cooling system connections for\
tightness. Also re-check the
coolant level. Capacity: 9.9 US qts. = 9.4 liters (manual transmission \
