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 to imminent threats to their safety within their 
area. There is no charge for receiving an Emergency Alert.

There are three types of Emergency Alerts:

• 

Presidential

• 

Imminent (Severe or Extreme)

• 

AMBER Alerts (missing persons)

Customers may choose not to receive Imminent Alerts and 
AMBER Alerts. Presidential Alerts cannot be disabled. To 
disable Imminent Threat Alerts (Extreme and Severe) and 
AMBER Alerts, follow these instructions:

1. From the Home screen, press the

 Settings ➔ Emergency Alerts 

➔ Receiving Alert.

3. All alerts are enabled by default (checkmark showing). 

To disable alerts, highlight an alert and press MARK,
