Clear the mapping you want to change by hitting ENTER, then ESC. It should then read NONE. Then hit ENTER again then hit both of your keys at the same time or in a very rapid succession.. wait a moment and it will show your input. For example, if you used CTRL + ALT, it would show "Ctrl Alt" in the mapping.
