Help with Minolta 35-70mm, 3.5 macro

I hope someone can help me,

I just picked up a mint MD 35-70mm 3.5 macro, but I’m not sure how to engage the macro. There is a little blue button but not sure what to do with it. There also seems to be another black button, more rectangular, that I also don’t know what to do with. Can someone tell me how to engage the macro and what that other button is for? Is there an online users manual for this lens? Thanks!

I found a review online and it says, 'the lens also has a macro mode. You activate a switch and turn the zoom ring behind the 70mm marking and the image is magnified. So at shorter distances you can focus with the zoom ring.' Does this help? Pressing the button allows the zoom to travel to the macro setting?
