yes. park your car on level ground, although that is not essential.
un-screw your coolant expansion tank cap and turn the interior heater controls to fully HOT.
start the car and let it run to temperature until the emergency radiator fan cuts in.
the expansion tank normally has a self-bleeding system.

let the car cool down before turning the engine off and re-fit your coolant cap.
i hope that helps.
