Most new compressors have enough oil in them to be fine. If you had a large leak and you have lost some oil them add 1/2 once and you should be fine.
Please let us know if you need anything else to get the problem fixed.
Here are the capacities from the service manual
Polyalkaline Glycol (PAG) Refrigerant Oil System Capacity
V7 8.96 fl. Oz. (265 ml)
HT6 7.98 fl. Oz. (236 ml)
I live in South Florida and have worked at shops that do nothing but A/C. There is no specific amount to be added. It ALWAYS depends on how much is removed.
This guide will help you as well.
