You should IMMEDIATELY flush out the entire PS system. Damage to the seals may have already been done. If so, you will have to replace the steering rack (or gear), the pump, and the lines.
This is a costly mistake.

It goes in the master brake cylinder reservoir. The cap of the reservoir says to use only Dot3 brake fluid.

The power steering reservoir is the one closest to the front of the car and the cap on it also tells you to use only Honda power steering fluid.
What happen if you only put a little bit of brake fluid in the power steering reservoir?
