    You need to have the system properly serviced and diagnosed. this means that all the r-134 needs to be removed, the system then needs to be evacuated and then leak checked and then if it passes the leak check then you fill the system and do a performance check. this is routine and takes about 1 hour or less. A Benz A/C system is pretty sophisticated and just filling it up can blow out expensive components. I hope that it is OK. Best of Luck!
