Before you make DNS changes, best to ask the people who run the nameservers
to lower the TTL to something like 15 minutes. Do this a few days ahead of
time. Then when you make the changes, you can have the TTL reverted to its
defaults. Results in minimal downtime.

Running the wizard should've opened that up for you.... ?
