Some shops require the procedure of pre-filling the filter first, and then filling up the engine afterwards. They give both specs for that reason

I don't know or remember what the true purpose of that is. It was something that my father told me to do when I first started to change oil and have been doing so ever since.

^^ You simply just pour a little bit of the new oil inside the filter.
