2008 Volvo 4.3GL SX Power Steering Fluid?

[Adrift]

2008 Volvo 4.3GL with the SX outdrive.

The power steering reservoir is low on fluid. When I look at fluid in the reservoir, it is a dark red/burgundy color.

At delivery from the dealer, the boat had a bottle of opened but barely used "Power Trim/Tilt (SX-DP-S Only) & Steering Fluid" PN 3850871. The bottle specifically says it can be used for power steering systems, however, the fluid is amber in color.

Anyone know what the power steering reservoir factory fill is? Is what I have compatible with the factory fill fluid?

Thanks

Check your owners manual, it should say what you can use as a substitute.
