Emergency alerts

This device is designed to receive Wireless Emergency Alerts
from the Commercial Mobile Alert Service (CMAS).
Emergency Alerts are geographically-targeted, and alert
customers of imminent threats to their safety within their
area. There is no charge for receiving an Emergency Alert.
There are four types of Emergency Alerts:
•
Presidential
•
Extreme
•
Severe
•
AMBER Alerts (missing person alert)
You may choose not to receive Extreme Alerts, Sever Alerts,
and AMBER Alerts. Presidential Alerts, however, cannot be
disabled. To disable Extreme and Severe Threat Alerts and
AMBER Alerts, do the following:
1. From the Home screen, touch
2. Touch Menu
3. All alerts are enabled by default (check mark showing).
To disable alerts, touch an alert to remove the check
