They probably only put "change filter AND o-rings" in the manual to avoid the legal hassle for NOT printing it...

O-rings are cheap. In my line of work, multi-million dollar oil wells can be junked due to a 25 cent o-ring failure. It just doesn't make sense not to change them when they're so cheap. It only takes a tiny tiny knick to cause a failure.
