Depends on what you have. Some cars have a dipstick for the Transmission Fluid, just like they do for the engine oil. You pull it out, wipe it off, reinsert it, then pull it back out and check the fluid level. Those which don't, then you have to get under the vehicle, undo the fill plug (it's on the side of the transmission, not on the bottom - that's the drain plug), stick your finger in, and check to see that the fluid level is just to the bottom of the fill plug.
