Section 3.5 says:
Note that a code of 16 that follows an immediately preceding 16 modifies the previous repeat count, which becomes the new repeat count. The same is true for a 17 following a 17. A sequence of three or more 16 codes in a row or three of more 17 codes in a row is possible, modifying the count each time. Only the final repeat count is used. The modification only applies if the same code follows. A 16 repeat does not modify an immediately preceding 17 count nor vice versa.
It should say:

Notes:
"three of more" should be "three or more"
