I presume you are talking about the power steering fluid? If so, the manufactures recommendation calls for mineral fluid, specifically this. I have used regular domestic stuff and haven't had any problems but it's your call. I say use the mineral oil if you can get it but if you get in a situation like I did and couldn't find any mineral oil and could only get regular stuff, then so be it.
