Filing instructions say both direct debit and send a check

I have e-filed my return successfully with the IRS. I had entered my checking account info to pay the amount owed via direct debit. Then I printed a copy of my return.

The filing instructions say the amount owed will be paid by direct debit (but the date is mysteriously blank -- I chosen April 1. BUT it is also says I need to mail the check:

Your return shows you have elected to pay your balance due of $828.00
| by Direct Debit using the following information:
| - Amount Withdrawn: $828.00
| - Date of Withdrawal:

Your return shows a balance due of $828.00. Mail your completed Form
Need to | 1040-V with included payment of $828.00 made payable to United States
Mail | Treasury by April 15, 2020 to:

How do I know whether I need to mail a check, or that it will be debited?

OK, now an update - - - I restarted the program. Now, when I went to print a copy it had all the correct information for direct debit including the bank account info. It also didn't have the instruction to also mail your payment.

So I'm good. Go figure . . .
