where to fill trans fluid

I know this is prolly on here somewhere already but I searched and had no luck and I am kind of in a rush. My transmission fluid is low and I wanted to top it off and don't see where to fill it. It doesn't say in the book. It's a 2003 Acura TL. Thanks in advance

Generally through the ATF filler bolt. But honestly, if you just need to top off, I would do it through the dipstick.

WHY are you low is the primary question!!!! should not need fluid~

If ckd cold you will get a false low reading
MUST drive 15 minutes on freeway then get off and park in safe level place
turn engine OFF
remove dipstick on driver side and wipe clean- insert fully and remove
Should be in between the dots
not at full not at low- in between
it gets a higher reading with hotter temps so halfway is perfect

+1, yes you can fill it up slowly through the dip stick tube.
