  Weather alert system

The weather alert function on the radio can alert you to special weather related emergencies. During an 
emergency or weather related hazard, NOAA issues an emergency tone that will set off an audible and/ 
or visual alarm on the radio.

Note:

Hazard warnings are not available in all areas. There are 7 standard NOAA weather channels used in 
the US and Canada. The radio receives broadcasts up to 40 miles from transmitting stations.
1. To listen to the standard NOAA weather channels, turn on the radio and extend the FM/WX wire 

antenna located in the battery compartment to get better reception. Then press the Band button until 
WX shows on the display.

2. The channel number of the weather station is shown on the display. Press the Tuning up/ down 

button to select the programmed channels. There should be one or more weather service stations 
broadcasting in your local area. You will hear a report that is updated usually once or more per day 
for your area. If there is a severe weather or weather-related emergency, NOAA will update weather 
broadcast more frequently. If there is a weather emergency, NOAA will issue an alert tone.

  Setting the weather alert

1. Following the steps above to tune the required weather station.

2. Press and release the WX ALERT button (        ) to activate the weather alert mode.                         will 

show on the display. If NOAA issues a weather related emergency, the radio will automatically alert 
you with a siren continuing for 15 seconds. After 15 seconds of siren, your radio will return to normal 
broadcasting for 12 minutes. Then your radio will be put into weather alert standby mode.

Note:

1. When the radio is set to weather alert mode, all the buttons on the front panel will be invalid.
2. When the siren is active, pressing any button on the radio will instantly turn the radio to the weather 

broadcasting channel and cancel the siren. Then press the Power button to return to weather alert 
standby mode.

  Turning off the weather alert

Press and release the WX ALERT button (        ) to turn off the weather alert. Your radio will then be 
back in standby mode.
