You need to put a guage on the low pressure side schraeder valve. The guage usually comes with the gas. Turn the car on and the A/C on max. You want the needle on the guage to read just under 40 basically.

Kaiser thanks 
I took her to the Toyota shop and they filled the system with gas. Air temp is around 46 degrees. But I`m not happy. I remember that last year the air was much colder. I`m the first owner and have always enjoyed really, really cold air from the A/C. Is there anything else to check?

I'm not going to make that call from my desk. I guess decide how much it bothers you and if it actually is 'warmer' than it was a year ago or if it's your imagination. Do some due diligence on Google and decide if it's worth working on.
