Hold down the AV button and use the control wheel. This is all explained clearly in the manual.

Aperture is displayed on the viewfinder status bar and on the LCD panel, turn the main dial to select different apertures. A half-press of the shutter release causes the cameras exposure system to calculate the shutter speed, if it's outside of the cameras exposure range the shutter speed will blink.

EOS 1DX and 1D Mk IV and less lenses then before!

He is in M mode, not AV. The rebel only has one control dial so you have to press the extra button to set Aperture. Did you read the OP?

Manual mode or not, the processes to use the controls are clearly spelled out in the user manual.  If the OP does not have such as doument they can download it from the Canon website and get the answer far faster than asking this forum.

 

Once obtained, I would sincerely suggest reading the manual before posting questions that it answers.
