Dot 4 is just fine. The manual is just saying you can use 4 OR 5 in it. The ratings of the fluids are based on increasing boiling points of the fluids. Dot 4 is just fine - it's a heavier-duty fluid than 3. 5 is silicone based, and used a lot by bikers and sports car enthusiasts. The Valvoline is probably a good product.
