You are likely looking at an older set of instructions.
If you have Lion or Mountain Lion installed on your Mac, the manual step to "allow this network to be extended" is not needed because AirPort Utility does this for you automatically as part of the setup of the extending device.
Toss those old instructions...things are entirely different now if you have Lion or Mountain Lion installed on your Mac using AirPort Utility 6.0 or 6.1.
If you are running Lion or Mountain Lion on the Mac and need a few tips to get the Express configured, post back to let us know.
