• If there is excessive background noise while monitoring alerts; or when the alert comes on, adjust the volume using the

Volume Control Knob or relocate the unit to a better location where you can hear the weather broadcast without risk of

i n t e r ference from background noise.

• If you are out of audible range of or far away from the unit; or if there is an obstruction between you and the radio, be sure to

check the unit for warnings periodically or remain close enough (within hearing range) to clearly hear and understand the

a l e r t s .

WA R N I N G : To ensure to continuously monitor alerts from NOAA while the unit is in alert mode, the unit should be checked

periodically to confirm its functionality and for loss of reception; also check for loss of reception after moving the unit to a

different location.

• Test Warnings from NOAA: All National Weather Services periodically transmit test signals. Some stations broadcast a test

signal every week on Wednesday between 11 AM and 1 PM, while others test more often, the NWS may also broadcast

System demonstrations. You can find out when your local NWS broadcasts test signals by calling the NOAA National We a t h e r

S e rvice Forecast Office (listed under “Weather” in the Federal Government section of the telephone book.) During the weekly

test signal, the local NWS will give a list of counties covered by their transmitter.

WARNING: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY:

Follow these instructions and those published by the battery manufacturer and manufacturer of any equipment you intend to

use with this unit. Review cautionary markings on these products.

This device complies with part 15 of the FCC rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause

harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired

o p e r a t i o n .

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules.

These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment

generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause

harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation.

If equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off

and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:

• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

• Increase the separation between equipment and receiver.

• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.

• This unit has not been tested for use with medical devices.

• DO NOT expose to extreme heat or flames.

• Although this unit contains a non-spillable battery, it is recommended that unit be kept upright during storage, use and

recharging. To avoid possible damage that may shorten the unit’s working life, protect it from direct sunlight, direct heat

and/or moisture.

• Check unit periodically for wear and tear. Take to a qualified technician for replacement of worn or defective parts immediately.

• FIRST AID – LCD LIQUID CRY S TAL DISPLAY: If liquid crystal comes in contact with your skin: Wash area off completely with

plenty of water. Remove contaminated clothing. If liquid crystal gets into your eye: Flush the affected eye with clean water and

then seek medical attention. If liquid crystal is swallowed: Flush your mouth thoroughly with water. Drink large quantities of

water and induce vomiting. Then seek medical attention.

WARNING: Batteries can explode, or leak, and can cause injury or fire. To reduce this risk:

• Carefully follow all instructions and warnings on the battery label and package.

• Always insert batteries correctly with regard to polarity (+ and -), marked on the battery and the equipment.

• Do not short battery terminals.

• Do not mix old and new batteries. Replace all of them at the same time with new batteries of the same brand and type.

• Immediately remove batteries that will not hold a charge and dispose of per local codes.

• Do not dispose of batteries in fire.

• Keep batteries out of reach of children.

“ Transporting batteries can possibly cause fires if the battery terminals inadvertently come in contact with conductive materials

such as keys, coins, hand tools and the like. The US Department of Transportation Hazardous Material Regulations (HMR)

actually prohibit transporting batteries in commerce or on airplanes (i.e. packed in suitcases and carryon luggage) UNLESS they

are properly protected from short circuits. So when transporting individual batteries, make sure that the battery terminals are

protected and well insulated from materials that could contact them and cause a short circ u i t . ”

CAUTION: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF DAMAGE TO THE UNIT:

• Although this unit contains a non-spillable battery, it is recommended that unit be kept upright during storage, use and

recharging. To avoid possible damage that may shorten the unit’s working life, protect it from direct sunlight, direct heat

and/or moisture.

• Do not plug surge-protected power bars into the unit’s 120 volt AC outlets.

• Do not connect an AC power source to the 120 volt AC outlets.

• Do not connect the unit’s AC power cord to its 120 volt AC outlets.

CAUTION: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF DAMAGING RECHARGEABLE APPLIANCES:

Most rechargeable battery-operated appliances use a separate charger or transformer that plugs directly into an AC receptacle

and produces a low voltage charging output. However, some chargers for rechargeable batteries can be damaged if connected

to this unit.

• Do not use small battery-operated appliances like flashlights, razors and night lights that can be plugged directly into an AC

receptacle to recharge with this unit.

• Read And Understand This Instruction Manual Before Using This Unit.

WEATHER RADIO SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

WA R N I N G : This product should not be the only source of information for all-hazard, watches and warnings. If severe

weather is imminent; do not wait to receive the weather alert warning, take precautionary measures to protect yourself.

WA R N I N G : The Weather Radio in this unit is designed to receive NOAA weather and other emergency alerts as listed in this

manual and communicate these alerts to you. You may not receive or clearly hear these alerts under any of, but not limited to,

the following circ u m s t a n c e s :

• Improper setup (Unit not in Alert Mode, or turned on): make sure that the unit is turned ON and the Alert LCD indicator is lit

(see page 9 for Weather Radio instruction).

• Volume is too low: adjust the volume to an audible level using the Volume Control Knob.

• The internal batteries are dead: recharge the unit using the AC charging method.

• Lost or poor reception, which can be attributed to any of the following:

a ) Improper antenna setup. To ensure you get the best available reception extend the built-in antenna and adjust its direction

to provide maximum reception.

b ) Improper tuner setup. To ensure you are always tuned in to receive the NOAA alerts check the National Weather Serv i c e

website at www.nws.noaa.gov/nwr/nwrbro for the signal frequency in your area. If you are on the correct frequency and fail

to get a signal, check that you have power and/or try placing the radio close to a window.

c ) Your location is out of range from a weather radio transmitter; the broadcast range from the weather radio transmitter is

approximately 40 miles. The effective range depends on such things as terrain and quality of the receiver and

indoor/outdoor antenna. Log onto http://www.nws.noaa.gov/nwr/nwrbro.htm to see which frequency best serves your area.

d ) Metal structure; to improve the radio’s ability to receive NOAA broadcast; do not place the unit near any large obstructions

or metal surfaces such as refrigerators, metal cabinets, etc. In metal structures, such as mobile homes, reception is

difficult because the metal structure impedes the transmission of monitor waves, in this case, place the radio close to a

window to improve reception.

e ) Radio frequency interference; some electronics may cause radio frequency interference such as two-way radios, remote

control cars, etc. Place the unit as far away as possible from these devices or avoid the usage of devices that cause radio

frequency interference while the unit is in alert mode.
