Yes. It states it on the lid of the reservoir.

95Green, it is very sound advice to get the O ring before you empty the reservoir and do what you plan. It's a 5 or 10 minute job with the tank empty. When you replace the reservoir, and refill with ATF you might be pleasantly surprised it all works

Also look at the how-to list, and ensure your belt is tight enough. If it's not working after this lot, you may have a bad pump.

Archer, a lot of garages do not read the lid, and top it up with power steering fluid. Don't fret too much about it, but change it back to the right grade when you have a chance. As far as I know, the primary difference is the ATF has a much higher tolerance to high temperature, and does not break down as quick. The SVX steering kit exerts high loads and makes the oil work for a living.
