The only way to flush all the fluid out of the torque converter and valve body is to perform a flush. Otherwise you will just need to drop the pan and then top off the fluid. Which is acceptable in most all cases including this vehicle.

Here is a guide that will help with this:

Below is the process from the manual on how to check the fluid after you service the unit.

Let us know if you have other questions. Thanks
