What type of ATF for HWH?

What type of ATF for HWH?
Can I just use regular old Dexron III in the leveling jacks? My HWH
manual says "type A" or "type B" transmission fluid and I'm not
familiar with that - neither are the people at the local auto store. I
just need to top it off & it's clearly got some type of ATF in it now.

Thank you!

Thanks all for your responses. Dexron III it is. Seemed to work fine,
jacks can extend fully now (it was a quart low).

Funny, though, how heavy this bus is and how soft the soil at my house
must be. I told it to level and watched all four jacks punch a 1 to 2
foot deep hole into the ground. Hah! I'm going to have to put some
wood under the jacks next time, and/or just concrete the RV parking.

Ryan,

At home base I always put wood under the jacks, I park in a parking lot. I
think that the less I have to run the jacks down the better!

Ryan: You got the same problem huh. I thought the gravel was packed down real
tight, even when I backed the bus over it, no tire marks, but put the jack down,
hmmm hole in driveway LOL.
