What hydraulic oil for Toyota 42-7FGF15

I would like to seek your advice regarding hydraulic oil for a Toyota forklift. Model 42-7FGF15. In the instructions, the manufacturer recommends oil with the ISO VG 32 standard. But I live in an area where temperatures are quite high, especially in summer. If I fill the hydraulic system with FUCHS HVI 46 oil, will it be fine and nothing should be damaged?

The only problem I've had between AW32 and AW46 is when you use AW46 in very cold temperatures you'll get slow lowering sometimes. I looked up that Fuchs HVI oil and didn't see any standards I recognized but the manufacturer says "The application temperatures can be between -30 °C and 100 °C tank temperatures."
