Yes it takes ATF in the power steering. Sounds odd but that's actually what is in there from factory. I am a Suzuki tech as well. A lot of manufactures use ATF in the power steering. Is yours low/leaking?

I topped mine up last week with generic power steering fluid. Seems fine so far.

Power Steering Fluid 500ml - Autobarn - Oils/Additives - Tranmission Fluids - actually it says compatible with Dexron III systems

There won't be any problems- that's what is in there from the factory.
