Draining Antifreeze, and Changing ATF on S80 S80

Can someone tell me where the drain plug is for draining the antifreeze out of the engine block on an S80 2.9. Is there more than one plug? I assume that there is also a drain plug at the bottom of the radiator somewhere, can someone confirm this? Want to make sure I get it all out!

Also, how often should the auto trans fluid be changed on an S80 2.9? I see on some Volvo parts sites that the AT filter is about 50 bucks...is it absolutely necessary to change the filter with every fluid change?

And lastly...is there a repair manual available for the S80? I don't think that Haynes makes one...anyone know if Chilton does, or some other company?

Any feedback greatly appreciated!
