I saw this mentioned on DPReview (where I don't participate) and thought huh?
So I checked and there it is:

The only thing I can think it might be talking about is that inserting the bottle always releases a little ink and doing that repeatedly could fill the tank past the normal automatic cut off level.

That's for a different printer. I looked at the ET-8500 manual and didn't find anything like that. The only thing is that they mentioned that for optimum results it's good to top it up to 100% at least once per year.

It is a photograph of my ET-8550 screen. Automatically presented when you open the ink tank cover.
