Weather Alert

Weather Alert allows your ATLANTIS to
function as a severe weather radio. If
NOAA issues a severe weather warn-
ing while the Weather Alert is turned
on, the ATLANTIS sounds an alert
tone. You will then hear the
emergency weather broadcast.
1. To use Weather Alert,
select the weather
Channel in your area
2. Press and hold
WX/ALERT for 2 seconds.
A confirmation tone sounds.
3. When the unit receives
a warning signal, it
beeps for 5 seconds.
WX, ALERT, and the
channel number blink to receive the
emergency weather broadcast.
4. To turn off Weather Alert, press and
hold WX/ALERT for 2 seconds. A
confirmation tone sounds.
When Weather Alert is activated, the
highest priority is given to this func-
tion. If the unit is in scan, Triple
Watch, or any other marine
channels, it checks for the weather
alert signals every 7 seconds and
switches to the Weather Channel
automatically.
*NOTE: Be sure the volume is set to a
high level when using the
Weather Alert mode. This will
insure that you will hear the
Alert tone even in a noisy
environment.
