Default Transmission fluid change

I have a 2012 Chevy Captiva LTZ AWD 3.0 V6. Looks like you pull the drain plug in the transmission and run the engine. That dumps the old fluid but with no dip stick how do you add new fluid?

Did you ever get this figured out?
Id kike to know more, just buying an LT and want to change the fluid. I understand there is a fill port but no dipstick to measure the level. I was hoping for a drain plug on the bottom and a "level plug" on one side so that once drained, you filled it thru the fill port until fluid came out of the level plug...but i dont know.
