1099-DIV box 2F - where to enter?

Turbotax manual entry for 1099-DIV does not ask about Box 2f but I have an amount in that box.   How do I enter this?

 

(Box 2F is "Section 897 Capital Gain" and it includes my entire capital gain distribution so I can't ignore it).

Recipients who are US individuals do not need to report the number in box 2f. If you scroll to the bottom of the link provided, you will see IRS confirm that. Look for the section that describes each box. 1099 Dividend
