I don't know your tuner, but with mine, I press the flat button two time so when I play E, it wants to hear 1 full step down (D). If that doesn't work for you, learn to use your ears. To do it without the tuner play the 5th fret on the A-string (which is the not D) and the open E string at the same time. Slowly detune the E-string until they match (I'm not so sure how to explain that part). Good luck!
