How to underpromote

My pawns promote to a Queen automatically. How would I avoid this in that rare case when I don't want a Queen?
Settings
>Game Behavior
--Promote to queen automatically--
[Never] [When Premoving] [Always]

You press control while hovering over the 8th Rank if you want to not turn off the automatic queen. Otherwise, do what BitBeans and Akbar2thegreat said.
Thank you, Just.... I play bullet so I can't afford to turn off automatic Queen, but I knew there had to be some other way to avoid it in those rare cases when making a Queen would be a mistake.

There is a option of 'When premoving' of Promote to Queen Automatically under Preferences section, which would suit best for Bullet games.
