Emergency Alert System (EAS)

The EAS works only if you have a digital cable card connected to the CableCARD slot on the back of the TV. Your cable company informs you of emergency alert information related to your state or local-level emergencies, such as Flash Flood Warnings, Severe Thunderstorm Warnings, and Tornado Watches. When your TV receives a state or local-level emergency, a message is displayed that lasts approximately 2 minutes, but can be repeated if necessary. During this time, you can’t clear the information being displayed. In the rare event that there is an national-level emergency, your TV would tune to a channel broadcasting the emergency information.
