Just the same as the brakes -

with the bleeder nipple closed give the lever a good pump to ensure you have pressure
hold the lever under pressure and release the bleed nipple, catching expelled fluid
as the lever hits the bar/max travel, close the bleed nipple tight
now release the lever and pump again

You will want to do both at the slave cylinder AND at the master cylinder (at the lever) to ensure you remove any trapped air/fluid

Keep an eye on the reservoir to make sure it stays topped up.

Keep bleeding until you remove any bubbles and you get a nice clean flow of fluid through.

You may find it easier with the lever's span adjuster at the furthest point (largest span).

Discard used fluid responsibly at your local recycling centre!
