Incorrect distribution code on 1099-R?

Hello, so I inherited a 401k from my grandpa 2 years ago. I started college this year, so I took money out to help pay for college. I received my 1099-R from Fidelity, which has my distribution code as 1. This is incorrect, yes? Since I am a non-spousal inheritor, I have 10 years to get the money out of the account, and I do not have to pay the 10% early withdrawal fee, right? I do not know if I would have to enter the money taken out under "Death" in TurboTax? Do I need to contact Fidelity on this? Any help is appreciated.
