It should have a yellow dipstick to check the level.

Make sure the car is on level gound,
let it settle after filling (10 mins or so),
pull the dipstick out & clean it,
put the dipstick back all in the way,
then pull it out and check the level....if the engine is cold look at the cold level/engine hot look at the hot (higher) level
