ting, .or .press .a .button .to .select .a .different .setting . .The .knob’s .physical .
position .isn’t .always .as .the .stored .setting .in .the .program .that .is .active, .

knob’s .position .
When .you .have .edited .a .program, .a .dot .will .appear .in .the .lower .right .
display .corner .next .to .the .program .number . .
This .will .alert .you .to .the .fact .that .the .program .
has .been .edited .but .not .yet .saved . .If .you .select .
a .new .program .without .saving, .any .edits .you .
