Due to the angle of the engine/transmission assembly, the lower edge of the filler hole -arrow 1- is located below the oil level -arrow 2-.

The transmission fluid level can only be checked when the transmission fluid has been drained completely and then refilled. Refer to  → " TRANSMISSION FLUID, DRAINING AND FILLING  " .
