Hold the CONFIG button down to enter the menu.  Then use the VFO B knob
to locate the FLx FRQ.  So for filter 1 it will show FL1 FRQ and you can
use the VFO A knob to change the value of the offset if desired.  Tap
the XFIL key select filters 2 - 5.

Page 46 of the manual gets into more detail than I can here.  If you
don't have a copy of the manual you can download it from the Elecraft
website here:

Also note that if you have 8 pole filters there should be no offset (set
it to 0).  The offset only applies to 5 pole filters. Hope this helps.

Five pole filters (KFL3A-500 and KFL3A-2.7K) should have a label physically
attached to the filter that shows its offset.  

If it's a factory-built radio, filter offsets may be printed on a label
stuck to the underside of the top cover.

Eight pole filters should use an offset of zero.
