The transmission is sealed therefore the level cannot be checked in the normal manner. There is a procedure for checking it from under the vehicle but you need a special tool and a pump to push it into the tranny from underneath. The fluid also must be hot to have the correct amount in. Check the net. There are videos available.

Get a pump at local auto parts store with transmission fluid and start pumping it with 1/2 quarts then let it drain for two minutes then check it again to get a correct amount of fluid just be patient to let it drip once it reach the normal temperature it’s time to close the plug then ✅ done!!
