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 of 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 person alert)
You may choose not to receive Imminent Alerts and AMBER
Alerts. Presidential Alerts, however, cannot be disabled.
Disable Imminent Threat Alerts (Extreme and Severe)
and AMBER Alerts:
1. From the Home screen, touch Messaging.
2. Touch Menu ➔ Settings.
3. Touch Emergency Alerts. Alerts are enabled by default
(a check mark displays). Touch an alert to disable it.
Listen to an example of a Emergency Alert tone:
1. From the Home screen, touch Messaging.
2. Touch Menu ➔ Settings ➔ Touch Emergency
notification previews. The Emergency Alert tone plays at
the same volume as your call ringtone.
