Use Weather Radio
The Weather Radio provides a constant update of the
weather conditions, which is helpful while outdoors or
planning a road trip. The Weather Alert further enhances
the Weather Radio by automatically broadcasting any
weather alerts if you are not actively transmitting or
receiving on the radio.
Select the Radio Page Option Menu button . Press
the Thumb Stick In when Use Weather Radio is
highlighted to turn on the weather radio. You can also
access the Weather Radio through the Shortcuts Menu.
When the Weather Radio is on, a tower emitting signals is
shown in the informational picture on the Radio Page, as
shown to the right. The FRS/GMRS radio cannot be used
when the Weather Radio is on. Also, you cannot scan or
monitor FRS/GMRS channels when the Weather Radio is
in use. The audio is unmuted when the Weather Radio is
on so that you can listen to weather broadcasts.
Change the Weather Radio channel in the same manner as
changing the FRS/GMRS radio channel. There are seven
Weather Radio channels (1 through 7) available.
