Manual 240D Clutch/Brake fluid capacity?

Hi Everyone. I am about to bleed out all the old fluid from my clutch/break system and add new fluid. Does anyone have a balpark figure of how much fluid I will need? I don't need an exact measurement, but just some general idea from anyone who has done this before. I searched but didn't find this info and have never done a full clutch/brake bleed out on a car before.

I got air in my system and then added the wrong type of fluid, so I want to clean it all out and put in new.

Thanks

Buy two quarts, one to fill it with and one unopened to keep in your trunk for emergencies.
