S70 non-turbo w/AW5 tranny, what fluid do I use? S70 2000

Hello, I have a 2000 non-turbo car with the 5 speed auto tranny. The owners manual specifies that with the "AW5" transmission, you need to use "Volvo Gearbox Oil" (which is a synthetic from what i understand) and it gives a Volvo part number. My car has 53K miles and i can safely assume by the looks of the oil that it has never had a tranny flush.

Must I use the synthetic tranny fluid?
Any thoughts or help in this area would be really appreciated!!!
