Automatic Transmission Level

I installed a after market transmission cooler today and while doing so lost a small bit of fluid. Plus added 8 feet of 3?8th hose, and what ever the cooler it's self holds. So of course my tranny is now some what low. After not being able to find a dipstick I called the dealer who informs me the tranny is a sealed unit and I can't check the level or add fluid. What in the Hell?
Anyone have any ideas?

There is an overflow plug, you should download Service Manual (Full Download) in the stickied Thread of this section. It will tell you specifically how to adjust the fluid level.
