jack on the back of the radio.

Press “UP” arrow until you hear the broadcast of your station. (F). Press “SELECT” to save station selection. (G). Press “MENU” to close menu mode. To turn Weather/Hazard broad-

You are now able to receive weather alerts for your area and surrounding areas. To narrow the alerts to just your county, see page 8 to program the S.A.M.E. code for your county into the radio.

6. Press the WEATHER/SNOOZE button to turn on the weather radio. Then press the “UP” or “DOWN” volume button to select desired listening level. (Note: Turning the volume all the way down [where no bars show] puts the radio into silent mode.)
