Alert Guard Initial Setup
Alert Guard informs you of hazards such as winter storm
watches and civil danger warnings that are being broadcast
by the all hazards NWR broadcast system for your specific
area.
Note: Alert Guard receives alerts for the U.S. , U.S. territories,
possessions and associated states, within your local geographic
area. These areas are listed on pages 37-54. Your TV can’t respond to
alerts outside these areas.
Also, Alert Guard can only receive alerts broadcast for areas close to
the location of the TV.
1. Press OK (the NWR CHANNEL menu appears, and tunes to
the strongest NWR channel).
Listen to the NWR channel. If the signal is clearly
understandable and is broadcasting information for your
local area, go to step 2.
If the signal isn’t understandable or isn’t broadcasting
information for your local area, go to page 33 for more
information.
