How to check tranny fluid level

I want to check the transmission fluid level on my 05 ml500. Bought the 30 dollar dip stick and popped the hood
There is a locked cap on the dipstick tube. How do I get this cap off . Don't have money to take it to a shop .Thx

Break off the locking tab and remove the cap. If you want, you can purchase a new locking tab and install it.

Search on "mercedes transmission tube locking tab" and you'll find plenty of information.
