Changing antifreeze questions

I need to change antifreeze in 07 fit sport. Plan to use Honda antifreeze as others and Honda's recommendation but am wandering how to drain the block. Is there a engine block plug. If there is, it must be in a difficult place to see and get to, as I can't seem to find one. Does anyone have this information?

Coolant Replacement (L12A/L13A)

official instructions for the Jazz/Fit. Should apply to our 07 as well. If diagrams don't show up use IE not firefox

The drain is under the radiator.

The block drain plug is above the oil filter. The Honda Shop Manual says to replace the washer, so you may want to get one before you start.
