You short the inputs, front&rear, run "CAL 0" on both of them.

You connect approx 10V to front or rear, run "CAL $voltage"

You connect approx 10kOhm to front or rear, run "CAL $resistance"

Done.

There is an AC-flatness calibration, following the same basic
schedule, but unless you plan to measure or sample non-audio-range
frequencies, you can ignore that.
