How do I check the power steering fluid level? I checked the ATF level under the hood and it says it's full. Does the Power Steering use the same reservoir as the transmission?

If you checked something under the hood, it's probably your power steering fluid. There is no transmission dipstick or reservoir under the hood.

It says ATF right on the cap. I looked in the owner's manual and it doesn't say what it's for. Anyone care to speculate?

No speculation. If it says ATF and it's under the hood, it's the power steering reservoir.
