Testing the Alert Siren
To test and recognize the difference between the types of
alert sirens, perform the following steps:
1. During WX Hold mode and when the WX ALT is OFF,
press and hold the PRI key for 2 seconds until you hear
the statement alert siren. SIREN TEST appears on the
display and the statement, watch and warning sirens
sound alternately.
Note: The samples of each alert siren only last for a few
seconds. You may need to listen to each siren several
times to be sure you recognize the different sirens.
The sirens continue to sound rotating through the
samples until you silence the test.
2. To stop the test, press any key.
Make sure you can hear the siren in all areas that you would
need to. If not, optional accessories can be purchased to
ensure that you are alerted for emergency broadcasts.
See your dealer or local electronics store for accessories.
DO NOT USE EARPHONES TO LISTEN TO THE TEST.
DAMAGE TO YOUR HEARING COULD OCCUR.
