Default Fermentation Container-Airlock?

I purchased a kit with a white 5 gal bucket, which has a small hole
and grommet in it. I can insert the plastic airlock in the hole but
since there were no specific instructions with the kit I am not sure
what to do. I have read that people use a cotton ball in the hole,
leave the lid loose and or cover with plastic. So what is the best way
to go? I bought the setup from Corrados in NJ and they gave a book '90
years of winemaking Richard Schumm' but it really did'nt seem to
apply to the kit I have. More geared to advanced crushed grapes rather
than from juice. I surfed all over the net and there is no specific
answers to that question. I'll try and call the store today but does
anybody have a an idea of what is the best way to go in the primary
fermentation bucket?

Thanks
