Step Five
RF Signal Strength
The signal strength indicator (Ê) shows the level of receiving signal. If the signal is lost and the signal loss reminder is enabled, the radio emits a short beep at 30 seconds. The radio then beeps every 30 second seconds (at 1 minute, 1.5 minutes, and so on) for 5 minutes. It then sounds every five minutes until you press any key, or until a signal is received.
If you press any key to silence the reminder, the reminder beeps stop. If a signal is detected for more than 10 minutes and then lost again, the reminder beeps regenerate.
Step Six
You can set the weather radio to respond to an NWS (NOAA) alert broadcast in two ways:
ON OFF SNOOZE | ON OFF |
ALARM | ALERT |
ON — When ALERT is set to ON and an alert broadcast is received, an alert sounds for five minutes. To stop the alert and listen to the broadcast, press WEATHER/ SNOOZE. Press WEATHER/SNOOZE again to turn off the weather broadcast.
OFF — When ALERT is set to OFF and an alert broadcast is received, an alert sounds for 10 seconds. The radio then automatically switches to the weather broadcast for five minutes. Press WEATHER/SNOOZE to switch from the alert tone to the broadcast before the 10 seconds, or to stop the broadcast before it automatically stops.
Step Seven
Enable/Disable the Alarm
1.Slide ALARM to ON or SNOOZE to enable the alarm. É appears.
2.The alarm sounds at the preset alarm time, becoming progressively louder the longer it sounds.
3.To snooze, press WEATHER/SNOOZE. The alarm stops for 10 minutes. After 10 minutes, the alarm sounds again until you slide ALARM to OFF to turn it off.
