bleeding air from stock cooling system

so umm iv tried searching and everything iv read has left me confused, how to I bleed the air from my stock cooling system. iv been filling the feeler neck and driving around then refilling is this right? and iv read something about a screw on top of the heat exchanger that you suppose to turn it to bleed air. anyone can give me an how to that be awesome.

i just had the engine at operating temp and squeezed the upper radiator hose multiple times and it got all the air out. but thats prolly not the best way. im pretty sure that on the reservoir cap is has air bleed holes. so you should be ok
