Lift the motor up as high as it will go on the power trim, carefully remove the resoviour plug and check you have the correct fluid level. Normally if there is a little air it will bleed out by itself. You could operate the manual release and lift the motor up and down manually this quite often will fix the problem as you are not causing more air by using the powertrim. Remember to close the manual valve once finished-good luckd:)

Don't forget to support the motor after it has been raised and before you remove the reservoir plug!
