Retirement tax questions

i took an early distribution from my IRA due to COVID-what code do i use when entering by 1099R-?

Merrill Lynch put code 1 in the box 7, can I insert code 2 saying "with Exception"-however there is nothing about the CARES act or COVID as an explanation, I dont want to make a mistake and be audited so please make sure your answer is correct-thank you so much
