If your fluid is red it is Automatic transmission fluid.
If it is yellow it is AW32W hydraulic fluid.
You can add the anti sticktion fluid to either.
The LCI tech bulletin regarding this is in the App.
The App also has the specs for what type of ATF you need IF they filled your reservoir with ATF.
It seems like newer models all have hydraulic fluid.

My hydraulic system had the same issue that you had. At first it was only in cold weather and then it continued to get worse. It got to the point of having to reset itself four or five times to get the slides in. What a PITA because Keystone uses an undersized breaker. Make yourself happy and replace the breaker. When ordering you will need to decide if you want an Auto Reset or Manual Reset breaker. I went with the Auto Reset style and unfortunately waited until this spring to install it, what a difference it makes, I should of replaced it last year when I got it. Last but not least make sure you get the leads on the breaker in the correct position and make sure you remember to disconnect both leads off your batteries.
Happy and safe roads to you.

I found some hydraulic fluid at Tractor Supply that met the standard; pour point of -42C / -44F. It appears the AW32 has a pour point only -18C / -0.4F.
