with the transmission warm (drive for ten or so minutes) park on a flat surface with the car running in neutral pull the dipstick the one towards the drivers side (not the yellow one) wipe it off and reinstall and pull out again look at the stick to see the level,if you need to add fluid use a small funnel and add it where the stick goes

2. Leave the engine idling in Park with the emergency brake set.
3. Remove the transmission level dipstick, wipe off with link free rag.
4. Re-insert dipstick until it stops, remove and read where the fluid level is.
5. Within the 'hatch marks' should be ok.
Be careful not to overfill with more fluid than absolutely necessary.
