How do you check transmission fluid on a 2001 S60 Volvo?

To check the Transmission Fluid on a 2001 Volvo S60, start by warming up the engine and then parking the car on a level surface. With the engine running, locate the transmission dipstick, usually found near the back of the engine compartment. Remove the dipstick, wipe it clean, reinsert it fully, and then remove it again to check the fluid level against the markings on the dipstick. The fluid should be a bright red color and should be at the correct level; if it's low or dirty, consider adding the appropriate type of transmission fluid or having it serviced.
