How do I release air from Radiator?

I recently had my radiator replaced & coolant refilled. When I start the jeep I hear water in my dash board. How do I release air from my cooling system?

Also when I open the radiator cap, air bubbles come out of the container where the coolant is in.
Thanks

your jeep should have a bleeder right on top follow the top radiator hose and you will see a allen head set screw release that while the jeep is cold and it should let any air that you have in the system out
