Those are air bleed hoses. They allow the air in the engine to go back to the surge tank instead of getting trapped behind the thermostat.

Remember to only fill the reservoir tank to the "fill" line you and will be fine. Overfilling will cause the trapped air to block the intended circulation of the coolant,
