Default 2004 Honda Accord Power Steering Pump Replacement

I have a 2004 Honda accord 2.4l and I recently changed the power steering pump because it was hard to turn. Now that that's on it bubbles inside due to air in the system. Does anybody know to take out the air out the system?

I normally turn the wheel love k to lock about a dozen times with the cap loose to get most the air out. The rest will work itself out whIle driving.

I agree no bleeder fitting just let it work out and keep a can of Honda approved power steering fluid in the trunk to refill when or if the levels drop and you start hearing the power steering pump start whining again.

It seems to make such fine bubbles in the fluid that it takes awhile for it all to clear.
