Default Power Steering Fluid Level is low

The fluid in my power steering fluid reservoir shows it to be at the low level line. How much fluid do I add to bring it up to the high line? Also, this is Dexron ATF fluid, right? I have a 2001 IS300.

you add until it comes to the correct level... its quite simple... and i would use dedicated power steering fluid that can be purchased from any autoparts store.

Or.... just go get your fluids topped off "professionally" at any oil change location... normally they will do this as part of any oil change anyway
