A/C Oil Amounts

Starting in on setting up the Sanden, had the realization the instructions about oil amounts may not be correct. Even the compressor was filled with more oil than states (exactly 200cc).

Going to use A/C Pro (had very good results with there mid grade product) and is 10 ounces of R134a and 2 ounces of "additive" in each can.

Having a parallel condenser, figure this also reduces the refrigerant and oil levels, so even more paranoid of slugging the compressor.

So, how does one calculate the proper refrigerant and oil levels?

Thank y'all in advance!

Edit: The additive is all liquid, including 1 to 1.5 ounces of oil. Not sure why can't be specific. Does fluid count like oil?
