r134a is the wrong one but you can by a coversion kit so you can use the r134a but if you can't get a hold of one then have fun looking for r12 unless you look on Ebay.com!!!!

You should have gotten a can of CFC-12 (R-12) compatible refridgerant. To successfully use HFC-134a (R-134a) you need to purge the system, adapt the schroder valves, and usually replace most of the seals throughout the system to prevent leaks.
