When I changed my pump a few years ago I put in regular ATF and had no problems, but I was advised that this was a bad thing.
So I bought MB power steering fluid (about$8.00/quart), syphoned and filled.
don't know how much is in the whole system.
the only procedure I've seen is to

-open the reservoir remove the fluid level indication spacer with 10mm deep socket, remove filter with needle nose pliers or a screwdriver, remove all fluid in reservoir with a clean syringe/turkey baster, put it all back together and then refill it slowly.

factory recomends MB fluid or Mobil ATF D

good luck
Marty
