If it was that low, I wonder if you have air in the system. Try this, lift and support the front of the vehicle. (WITH THE ENGINE OFF) Fill the PS pump. Now slowly turn the steering all the way to the left and then to the right. Do this several times and check the fluid level. If it has gone down, refill it and do it again until the level doesn't drop.
Let me know if this helps.
