Go for a drive and get the car to operating temp then stop somewhere (don't turn off the car) and listen to the radiator and see if you can hear it bubbling... if you can only hear the bubbling once you stop the engine just fill your overflow bottle with straight coolant and go for a short drive... stop the car and let it cool down.
When your cooling system cools down a vacuum will be created which sucks the coolant back into the system.
This will, after a couple of times, fill your cooling system again.
Just watch your temp gauge and make sure the car doesn't overheat and preferably don't drive too hard until you've got all the bubbles out.
Also remember to drive around with the heater on a bit as you can get air stuck in your heater box and if you don't run the heater it won't work its way out.
