You car doesn't have a dipstick. Vehicle manufacturers removed them a long time ago. You drain and fill the transmission from under the car. youtube might have a video or two on how to perform the drain and fill process on your particular vehicle. I personally I would have the pro tackle this task, If you are not leaking any transmission fluid, you should be fine, but if you think the car is shifting incorrectly, then have a garage check it out.
