If your car running less then 10 minutes then it's considered a car with cold transmission fluid (fluid should be in the region of cold level marks, but not lower), if more then 10 minutes then it's hot (fluid should be in the region of hot level marks, but not higher). When you check transmission fluid level your car should be running.

Transmission Fluid Level Check Volkswagen Beetle (1998-2010) Our research indicates that your vehicle does not have a transmission fluid dipstick. These types of transmissions are designed to be maintenance free. In order to check the transmission fluid, your vehicle likely has check valve on the bottom of the transmission on the bottom of your car. Your car must be level when the fluid is checked and we therefore recommend having a mechanic with a hydraulic lift or underground bay check your transmission fluid.
Check transmission fluid level.
Depends on the make & year of the car. Also depends on whether or not there is a dipstick. If your car does have a dipstick for ATF, check on the dipstick itself for the letter N or P which indicates what gear the trany needs to be in for checking the fluid level. Make sure the engine is running & warm before checking & that the car is sitting on level ground. Check your owner's manual for the type of fluid needed & what gear the trany needs to be in when checking fluid level.
There is a power steering reservoir under the hood of the car. Remove its cap, and the dipstick is attached, this is where a person can check the fluid level.
Have a garage check it for you. The car needs to be warmed up and up on a lift and level. There is a small plug threaded into the transmission case. When that plug is removed the fluid should just trickle out indicating the fluid level is full.
