how do I recharge a/c?

can someone point out the correct port to recharge the a/c?
I know its the ''Low side" , but which one is the "low side"?

I see one port on the accumulator and one on the a/c hose....

Use a good vacuum. It should hold vacuum for at least 30 min or more. If it does not, you have a leak somewhere.
