8.1 About CMAS
The Commercial Mobile Alert System (CMAS) is a new
national public safety system that allows people who own
a CMAS-enabled mobile device to receive geographically-
targeted messages. These broadcast messages will alert
customers of imminent threats to their safety within their
immediate area.
Receiving a CMAS alert message on your Jitterbug
Touch 2 – Although alerts from CMAS are not text
messages, the alerts will look similar to text
messages. They will be short (not more than 90
characters) and easy to read. The alert messages
will provide basic information on safety/security
issues urging customers to take action to protect
themselves.
