Using the TV’s Features
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 donÕt 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 youÕre 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 doesnÕt 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
Locations
