information can include descriptions and pictures of the missing
child, the suspected abductor, a suspected vehicle, and any other

Understanding Weather Alerts
Weather Advisory
An advisory is for less serious conditions that cause significant
inconvenience and, if caution is not exercised, could lead to situations
that may threaten life and/or property.
Weather Watch
Polarized Plug
A watch is used when the risk of a hazardous weather event has
increased significantly, but its occurrence, locations, and/or timing is
still uncertain. It is intended to provide advance notice of possible
inclement weather.
This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the
other). To reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug is intended
to fit into a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not
fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a
qualified electrician. Do not attempt to modify the plug in any way.
Weather Warning
A warning is used for conditions posing an immediate threat to
life or property. Depending on the type of warning, you should take
immediate, appropriate action.
Short Cord Instructions
A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce the risk resulting from
becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.
Do not use an extension cord with this product.
