How do I bleed a semi automatic gearbox?

I recently changed a semi automatic gearbox on a 2003 Vauxhall Corsa and I was wondering if it is self bleeding? I didnt know it had a clutch fluid reservoir. Will it bleed when its running?

Well the clutch is electro hydraulic (operated by electric motors) and the gearbox is a normal gearbox, so the oil would be normal gear oil (refer to owners handbook).
