Default Power steering fluid Help Me!

I have a 2012 Accord Coupe V6 auto. 10,000 miles on it. Went in 8-3-13 for oil change at Honda dealership. They did a routine "check" of things, including topping and checking of fluids and checks for leaks. For the past week I have notices a "whirring" sound. Discovered this morning that my power steering fluid is low. Should I add after market fluid now? If I do, the manual says I must later flush and refill with Honda PSF. Can I wait until Tuesday and have Honda dealer address this? How could it be that I need fluid now and not a few weeks ago? I can see no leaks. What The Heck !?!?

Most manufacturer's of fluids have "universal" fluid and they also have "FOR HONDA/ACURA" fluid. It IS different, so don't use the universal stuff.
