Maintaining the Battery Charge

As you use your radio, the battery power icon will show the battery power remaining. When the icon begins to flash, it is time to recharge or change the batteries.

NOTE

Radio will continue to receive signals when blinking but cannot transmit.

NOTICE

Use only the drop-in charger provided by Cobra. Do not use the charger with alkaline batteries; only the LiON battery pack is rechargeable. Spent alkaline batteries must be discarded and replaced.

Getting Started

Refer to the foldout at the front of this manual to identify the various controls and indicators on your radio. Throughout this manual you will be instructed to “Press” or to “Press and Hold” various buttons (except “Push to Talk”) on the radio. “Press” means a momentary press of approximately one (1) second. “Press and Hold” means to hold the button down for approximately two (2) seconds.

Whenever you press any button except the Talk button on your radio, a brief tone (beep) (if key tones are selected On) will sound to confirm the button press. With all button presses, the appropriate icon will appear on the LCD and the backlight will turn On. The backlight will stay On for 10 seconds after the button is released.

It is a good idea to keep a set of fresh, high-quality AA alkaline batteries with your radio. Should the rechargeable battery pack become discharged and no electrical power source is available, you can insert the optional alkaline battery tray with fresh alkaline batteries and continue to use your radio.

At times, you will hear two (2) other sounds. Two (2) beeps will sound to confirm your setting changes and three (3) beeps will sound to notify you of an error.
