[Elecraft] New KPA 500 Questions: Idle HV and Info button

Newly assembled AMP. Two quick questions - 

1) At 120V using green tap, idle HV is ~87V which is just over the
recommended 85 but not enough to trigger a fault. This setting provides just
over 60V at 500W+. Also keeps the amp hum nice and quiet vs the other 2
louder tap options which do keep idle HV under 85 but < 60V under load. Ok
to operate a little out of the upper V range using the green tap?

2) Also, I found no reference in searches or manual for the INFO button.
Looks like it's not being used for anything - do I have this correct?

Thanks!

Wade
