It needs to be level and up to temp and running to check. Fluid goes in the dipstick hole.

Note that the volume between the "low" mark and the "full" mark is 1 PINT.

I drive my car until it's fully warmed up and pull it into the garage and let it idle for at least 1 minute before checking the trans fluid level.
