How to set selected item of SelectOneMenu

Question

HI,
I want to manually set the selected item of SelectOneMenu, can anyone tell me how can I do?
Below is my code:
<h:selectOneMenu binding="#{Monitor.dropdown1}" id="dropdown1" onchange="submit();" valueChangeListener="#{Monitor.pageItemsValueChange}">
    <f:selectItems binding="#{Monitor.dropdown1SelectItems}" id="dropdown1SelectItems" value="#{Monitor.pageItems}"/>
</h:selectOneMenu>I tried to use dropdown1.setValue to set it, but I wonder which class type I can use.

Initialize the value to the value you want to select:
<h:selectOneMenu id="model" value="#{SearchVehicle.modelField}">
<f:selectItems value="#{SearchVehicle.models}"></f:selectItems>
</h:selectOneMenu>public class SearchVehicle{
private String modelField = "XYZ";
}
