6. Press the down arrow button to highlight
Alarm type
. Press the right arrow button to highlight
the type of alarm you want to hear when receiving an Advisory. As you select
Siren
,
Chime
or
Voice
, you will hear what each sound like. If you don’t want any alarm set, choose
None
.
Notes: For models 20F671T, 24F671T, 27V571T and 27F671T, don’t leave headphones plugged in when they
aren’t in use. Alarms will sound through the headphones and not the TV’s speakers, causing alarms not to be
heard.
If your TV is connected to a receiver, amplifier, home theater system, or other audio equipment, alerts won’t be
audible through such devices connected to the audio output terminals of the TV; instead, the Alert Guard
system will turn on the TV’s internal speakers to sound an alarm and make the alerts audible.
7. If you set an Alarm type, press the down arrow button to highlight
Alarm volume
. Press the
right or left arrow button to set the highest volume of the alarm. You might want to think of
how loud the volume needs to be if you’re somewhere else in your home . For example, if you
want the alarm to wake you up while sleeping in the other room, then you might need to set
the volume at the highest level.
The Siren option is a loud sound, designed to get your attention. The Chime option is a subtle
sound for those easily startled. When the Siren or Chime sounds, it starts soft and continues to
get louder until it reaches the maximum volume you set. The Voice option is the voice of NWR
which states the alert and then shuts off. The Voice option doesn’t get louder. It speaks at the
volume you set.
8. When finished, if you want to customize
Warning
or
Watch
level, press the up or down arrow
button to highlight
Alert level.
Then follow steps 4-7.
Locations
You can receive alerts from four locations within close proximity of where you live. Go to page 10
for instructions on setting the areas.

which correspond to the NEWS WEATHER button on the
remote.
The default for Choice 1 is channel 2. To set a different
channel:
1. Press the down arrow button to highlight
Choice 1
.
2. Press the left or right arrow button to choose the first
news weather channel. You can also use the number
buttons to enter the channel, for example, channel 12.
Press number 1, then 2, and then press OK.
3. To set the other news weather choices, follow the same
steps.
Each time you press the NEWS WEATHER button, the TV
toggles through the choices in the order they were set.
