Chapter 5: Red Bank Functions
In addition to tuning and patch Banks, a third Bank provides utilities and customizations.
It’s called the Red Bank because when you initially enter the Bank, the Gear Shift knob
displays mostly red characters.

additional push is not needed for the Bluetooth function.
