Section 4.3.1 says:

   The encoder SHOULD follow a received codec mode request, but MAY
   change to a lower-numbered mode if it so chooses, for example, to
   control congestion.

It should say:

   The encoder MUST follow a received codec mode request as soon as
   possible. It SHOULD use the requested mode, but MAY change to a
   lower-numbered mode if it so chooses, for example, to
   control congestion. However, the encoder MUST NOT use a
   higher-numbered mode than the received codec mode request.

Notes:

This seems to be the intention of the existing text, but is not explicitly stated. It is essential for the end-to-end mode control and interoperability with 3GPP CS networks that a peer does not send higher modes than requested.

This erratum has been discussed and endorsed by the 3GPP SA4 group before submission to IETF.
