Removing Hose clips

[Ed]

Sorry for a very elementary question:

All the hoses on my Brava have funny hose clips which don't have a screw.

Is there some way to get them off and on again? (And if they are not re-usable what is the best way of getting them off without damaging the hose)

Also some of the clips on the radiator look even more elaborate than the others - are these the same to get off and on again??

Thanks

Ed

They are not reusable, don't even try.

I found the best way is to use a small screwdriver. What you have to do is slide the clip over so that they pop open. Find the big lump on the clip and insert the screwdriver into the side. Trial and error is the only way.
