Ok to use Matic D in the power steering system?

I know our Power Steering calls for Dexron III in the unit. Since Genuine Nissan Matic D fluid is comparable to Dexron III, is it safe to use in the PS unit?

There is nothing mentioned in the owners manual about Matic D in the PS unit. It just states to use Dexron III.

Are two threads related to PS only minutes apart really necessary?

Also, there is a forum for Fluids and Lubricants, and a nice sticky as well.

See here.
