Stick the key in the end, the air/water comes out the small hole in the plastic swivel bit.

standard key does work just hold the white bit with other hand it has just been done up a bit too tight or use a small screw driver in the slot

You need a rad key, turn the small square center pin anti-clockwise and bleed out air until water flows

 

[sambotc]

the white part is a free spinning nozzle which directs the air/water which is released out at whichever direction you point it to.

Using either a screwdriver or radiator vent key, turn the square on the end anti clockwise to open the air vent untill water is released.

Hope that helps, Sam
