Yes, there should be a cutoff for the system if the refrigerant is low.
Most modern cars have this, and it's to keep the car from toasting a
compressor if the refrigerant leaks out. Maybe the owners manual (the
little glovebox sized one, if you got it) will mention something about
this.

My only other thought is that they might be a cut-off system that
disables
the electrical supply to the compressor under some circumstance, such as
a
shortage of refrigerant or some other fault? Is this likely? I guess
I'll
find out if I ever get a wiring diagram!
