Start adding, once you get enough pressure to be over the safety low pressure switch it will come on so you can fill it completely. The switch is put in there to prevent the compressor from coming on when no refrigerant is presesnt and ruining the unit. You might want to find out why you are so low on freon before filling it up again.
