How should you properly bleed a brake caliper while ensuring safety and preventing damage on 2002 Ford Taurus?

The process of bleeding brake calipers requires DOT 3 or DOT 4 brake fluid only because using non-approved types will cause permanent damage to brake components and disable the brakes. Attention must be given to brake fluid usage since eye exposure should be avoided and hands need complete washing after finishing work. Eyes that come into contact with brake fluid should be flushed with running water for 15 minutes. Medical attention is needed when eye irritation does not go away. Seek emergency medical services after drinking water and vomiting induced by water since ingesting the substance. You need to watch out because brake fluid harms painted and plastic materials but you can remove it by washing with water right away. Correspondence between the master cylinder reservoir and its designated brake fluid should always be maintained during bleeding operations and drained fluid must remain unused. Disconnection of the disc brake caliper alone requires no full brake system bleeding operation. Put the disc brake caliper bleeder screw under a box end wrench and join it with a rubber drain tube that reaches a clean brake fluid container. The assistant should apply strong pressure to the brake pedal. The technician must begin opening the bleeder screw to allow brake fluid drainage before tightening the screw as the assistant keeps manual brake pressure steady. Repetition of the fluid extraction method continues until you see both clear fluid and no more bubbles coming through followed by brake master cylinder reservoir re-filling when needed. Finish the procedure by tightening the disc brake caliper bleeder screw.
