Do nothing if everything seems OK. Drain and refill, but never flush, you will stir up gunk in the pan, if you have hard or sluggish shifts

tod34 is correct. The "fill" area of this transmission is located on the transmission itself. It is a fluid leveling plug located low on the main case toward the back of the trans. You must pump the fluid in through that hole. If you are on level ground and the transmission is properly warmed, you should fill the transmission until the fluid level is flush with the bottom of the hole (starts spilling out)

Dont think you can for this model its a special tool used and only the dealer has this tool ,its to stop you from doing it yourself and create work for the dealer .many europeon vehicles now use this type of filler where its pumped up from underneath and sensor within the box via OBDII tell the operator when to stop filling .Its known as progress

3 GALLONS is a lot,Are you sure it's not 3 quarts,which isn't enough. If it is gallons then drain it out because you going to damage the pump, if it is quarts then keep adding until it shows up on the dipstick at the bottom, then after it has been driven add as needed to get it to the full mark. ONLY use dexron fluid!!!!
