Your manual says there is a drain plug in the pan and you simply remove that and drain the fluid and then fill it again through the dip stick tube. I attached the info.

This guide will help walk you through the steps with diagrams below to show you how on your car.

Here is the fluid type and capacity.

Automatic transaxle fluid Toyota Genuine ATF WS Dry fill 6.4 liters (6.8 US qts, 5.6 Imp. qts)
Drain and refill 2.5 liters (2.6 US qts, 2.2 Imp. qts)

Check out the diagrams (Below). Please let us know if you need anything else to get the problem fixed. Let me know if you have questions. Thanks
