How to set amount of initial trailer brake output?

Just had new brakes on my 32' 5er. At campsite 400 miles from home. I am reading owner's manual & it says you can "adjust the amount of initial trailer brake output by selecting one of three settings through message center." I can't figure out how to do this. I know how to set gain but not the initial output of Light, Medium, or Heavy. Any help is appreciated. Thank you.

Finally found it on page 92 of Owner's Manual.

What year is your truck? Has to be 2015 or newer to set effort level. I'm not in my truck at the moment, but pretty sure it's in truck settings, driver assist, trailer brake, then there are two options, one to set brake type, and the other is effort level.
