Not a lot, really. Dump it, Fill it with water, flush it out with an up to temp run, Twice, Dump that.
Stick a coolant system cleaner through if you want,
Then re-fill with correct coolant.

Basically 2 x water flush & dumps is enough to remove the wrong coolant from the system.

"Coolant low" implies a leak. Start checking pump, Rad connections, matrix etc...
