Setting the siren mode
Your Motorola MWR839 Weather Alert Radio allows you to block the siren from sounding on some warnings that are not relevant to your area. For example, a flood warning that may be issued in your county may not affect your location. You may not want the siren to sound for a flood warning alert.
Note: Some alerts, such as Tornado Warning, are not blockable.
