Hi was this done as a diagnostic repair or just routine maint?
if just for maint and no prob before service, then most likely air in the cooling system remove radiator cap let run until thermostat opens bleed air bubbles from rad fill. you may have a bleeder in the thermostat housing if so use this to bleed system.
