you bleed it and look at the fluid coming out of it is not air. best way to do it, is submerge the hose into a clear jar filled with brake fluid and attach the other end to the nipple of the brake caliper. pump the brakes until you don't see anymore air coming out of the nipple then tighten it with hose still submerge in the jar. do that to each corner starting from the left rear corner then, right front then, right rear, and finally left front.
btw sounds like you need this to make sure you do it right in the first place: http://www.helminc.com
