Anyone know where the clutch master cylinder bleeder is? Break fluid question. S70 1998

Hi. I am getting ready to change the break fluid in my S70. Since the hydraulic clutch shares the fluid with the breaking system, I reckon I need to replace the fluid in that as well. I use Motive Products system to replace the fluid. It is really great. The way it works is you put fresh fluid into the plastic bottle tha is then connected by a hose to the break fluid resevoir and pressurized using a built-in pump. Then, you just open each bleedr in turn and let the pressure push the old liguid out replacing it with new. I usually start with the longest run (rear right) and work my way to the shortest (front left). Last time I did it, I neglected the clutch. I don't want to neglect it this time. But, I don't know where the bleeder for the clutch is. If anyone knows, please let me know. Also, I am about to use Valvoline synthetic break fluid that says it exceeds DOT3 and DOT4. Id this ok to use? I think this is what I used last time?

Great holiday to all!
