right on the front page of the 1040, the PSO box next to the retirement line should be checked and the taxable amount shold be reduced

Scroll down on the 1099-R worksheet and eventually you will spot the box to check

on the 1099-R worksheet look for line that say public safety officers

(it is actual paid up to $3,000 not an automatic $3,000)

I thought they meant where do you see it come off, not how do you enter it.
