Default Shimano Dura-Ace SL-7700 downtube shift lever mode conversion

Hi,

I've seen around (eg. http://www.bikeparts.com/search_resu...p?id=BPC109054)
that these shift levers are are inter-convertible between index and
friction mode. The instructions made no mention of this, and they
appear to be index out of the box.

Does anyone have any info about this they could point me to?

Many thanks!

To change mode, move selector/indicator (#2 in drawing)
