If you mean that it shuts off at 240 bar instead of 225 bar, then you just need to adjust the pressure switch.

I'm not familiar with Capitano, but in Junior II the max pressure is set in the filter case, not in the compressor itself.
The pressure adjustment is done in the top of the filter by turning the knob shown in the attached image.

That "whistle" you hear is most likely your relief valve lifting.

I highly recommend you read through the owner's manual, cover to cover, and get familiar with your compressor.

No need to adjust down really, just keep track of the filling time, it is easy to work out when it will be due to shut down after some filling. As pointed out, if you want to adjust down, it is the round screw thing on the top of the main filter.

To adjust the final pressure, you need to cut the wire on the two or three slotted screws (depending on model of PO/P31 filter) holding the round knurled knob assembly. After removal of these 3 screws and the knob assembly, you will see a slotted screw and lock nut which must be loosened off and the screw turned anti clockwise a bit to reduce the final pressure and tightening the lock nut again. This is trial and error till you get the right pressure.

PS the knurled knob is only a mechanical vent for those that can read what VENT means.......it doesn't adjust final pressure.
