change to red, and you are now able to select Mode 3.  Press it 
again and the 

in 2 

LED will be lit green, and you are now able to 

select Mode 4 etc. This pattern continues until you reach Mode 12 
and then starts over again at Mode 1.  

To configure an external switch

 (momentary - normally 

open), use the 

stomp function

 toggle switch. Set it to the left 

position (Boost) to use an external switch as a boost. Set it to the 
right position (AY) to use an external switch as an instant silent 
tuning switch. The middle position (AB) is for no external switch. 
The red "tuner on" LED will flash each time you change the switch 
position to show you it has registered a change.  

To save your settings and exit Startup Configuration

hold down the stomp switch for 2 seconds. The blue boost LED will 
flash quickly, followed by the corresponding mode LED to 
acknowledge your selection. The  Stereo will now enter your 
selected mode every time it starts up, unless you change it again by 
going back into the Startup Configuration.
