To be precise look up the MSDS (Material Safety Data Sheet) for the brand of Transmission Fluid you will be using. The one I looked up said the following:

==========================================================

SECTION 5 FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES

FIRE CLASSIFICATION:

OSHA Classification (29 CFR 1910.1200): Not classified by OSHA as flammable or combustible.

NFPA RATINGS: Health: 1 Flammability: 1 Reactivity: 0

(0-Least, 1-Slight, 2-Moderate, 3-High, 4-Extreme, PPE:-Personal Protective Equipment Index

recommendation)

FLAMMABLE PROPERTIES:

Flash point: 426 °F (ASTM D-92 Cleveland Open Cup)

Autoignition temperature: > 800 F

Flammable (Explosive) limits (% by volume in air) Lower: No Data Upper: No Data

===========================================================

hope this helps.
