Pg 109 engine compartment
item 7 oil dipstick for tranny
Volvo goofed and didn't point to it's location

The tranny is to the drivers side of the engine block
look directly left of the battery, down low, buried amidst a large
hose It's a yellow plastic end. (It's hard to see)

It should be left of the battery and in line with the brake master cylinder

Once you find it, there's two marks, hot and cold.
Check it after it's warmed up is best, keep the engine running while you check
it. You are interested in the level being correct and also in the condition
of the tranny fluid. It need's periodic flushing. There's writeups and videos
explaining how you can do it. Avoid the power flushes at garages.
Healthy ATF should be red and not brown.
