[Elecraft] Another two question about my new K3

I am sure I should know the answer to this but so far I have not been able
to discover it.  I had my very first QSO awhile ago with my brand-new K-3.
It did work but the poor soul on the other end had to endure a very sloppy
fist coming from my station.  I went into the configure menu and discovered
that it was set for iambic B.  It should have been Iambic A. The timing is
just different enough to give me fits.

Now the problem.  I can't seem to figure out how to change it from Iambic B
to A . I'm sure it's somewhere in the manual but I have yet to discover it.
Can anyone offer me the magic key?

The other issue is that the side tone level is rather low.  The monitor
level is set to the max, i.e., 40.  It is still rather low through my proset
headphones.  Is there any way to boost that a bit.  I get fairly decent
audio level on receive with the AF gain at about the 12 o'clock position and
with the AF gain set to high.  I would like a bit more side tone level
without increasing the overall audio gain. Does anyone have any suggestions
about that?

I do thank everyone.
