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.

NOTICE

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

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 alkaline battery tray with fresh alkaline batteries and continue to use your radio.

NOTE

Some radios with LiON batteries have AA or AAA battery packs which only allow low power transmit. The AA battery tray for the MR HH415 and a fresh set of alkaline batteries will allow for full power emergency transmissions.
