State tax filing

In the line by line instructions foe Hawaii Form N-11 page 12, 3rd column, it states

Note: None of your refund is taxable if, in the year you paid the tax, you either (a) did not itemize deductions,

(b) elected to deduct state and local general sales taxes instead of state and local income taxes, or (c) did not deduct state and local income taxes because your federal adjusted gross income was above certain threshold amounts.

Also no where on the State Tax Refund Worksheet does it even ask if you elected to deduct state and local general sales tax instead of state income taxes.

Can you shed any light on this?
