Default Recharging AC on 85 Vanagon

Can anyone here tell me how and where to recharge the AC on an 85
Vanagon. The AC unit is in the cabinet above the bed. I've looked in the
Bentley manual and it seems to assume 85's did not have AC.

Also according to stickers in the engine compartment it has already been
converted to 134 refrigerant.

There are kits available that have excellent instructions. Careful!
Before you willy-nilly recharge, you might want to make sure that all
otherwise is well. But the charge valves will be in the engine
compartment approximately adjacent to the compressor.
