Default RF Power settings on FT-857D

Just got my new FT-857D which I love, but I haven't found a menu option for
reducing the RF power while tuning antennas. Currently I only have a G5RV
HF antenna, and an MFJ-901 Tuner for it. Will transmitting at full power
(100 watts) while using the antenna tuner, for a few seconds harm this radio
any, or am I too worried about nothing?
