Manual says 10W/40 engine oil meeting ACEA A2 but no comment if it will be regular, semi-synthetic or fully synthetic oil.
So, what type of oil are you using for 2.5 V6 petrol engine?
 
Thank you.
Mecanic told me not to use fully synthetic oil for no reason.
I will keep your advice and use fully synthetic Mobil Super 3000 10W/40 starting from the first oil change on weekend.

Also pre-fill the oil filter before fitting it. This reduces oil pressure build up times, while the filter is filling.

That's a brilliant idea. I already do the same for my other car, Chrysler Grand Voyager in addition to spreading some oil around the filter's o-ring before tightening.
 
I think, I can hardly find 10W/40 fully synthetic one...
Every brand I search, producing semi-synthetic for this viscosity...
 
Use a 5w40 or 0w40 in full synthetic;)
Thank you once again...Since the lower the 'winter' number (hence the 'W'), the easier the engine will turn over when starting in cold climates, in here especially; I would use 5w/40 fully synthetic oil instead of using 10w/40 semi-synthetic one...
