Default stupid question

Hi

Stupid question.
What is the best way (temps etc) to check the fluid level in a 700r4?
Most Euro cars are the same, start it up run it for 2 mins run through the gears put in drive and check fluid. This is obviously not correct for a 700r4 but the procedure in the hand book is pretty ‘woolly’.
What do you guys do?
