THE NOAA ALERT FEATURE

After you have tuned in your local Weather channel, the radio can be set to the ALERT function, by pressing the ALERT button (far right above the LCD). This function turns off the radio, but continues to monitor the NOAA frequency. If an alert is broad- cast, it turns back on, enabling you to hear the alert broadcast. To turn ALERT off, press ALERT again; ALERT disappears from the display.

NOTE: while ALERT is selected, no other stations can be tuned in or received.
