After the jury has retired for deliberation, the court may order it to return into court in order to correct any erroneous instruction or to give additional instructions. Such instructions shall be given to the jury only after the prosecuting attorney, the defendant or his attorney have been notified of the court’s decision to correct or enlarge its instructions to the jury.
