90 Camry Power Steering Fluid

My 90 Camry needs some power steering fluid (I busted a rubber hose when I was doing the timing belt). On the cap it says "Use Dexron type Power Steering Fluid." Isn't that an oxymoron? So which one is it? Dexron type ATF or Power Steering Fluid? I picked up some Prestone Power Steering Fluid but I haven't put it in yet.

Yup. Only use ATF in there... I had to drain the system on my car when I got it because it had normal power steering fluid in there.
