Using Your Radio

Introduction

Insert Radio(s) For charging microTALK radio(s) in desktop charger:

1. Insert radio(s) into desktop charger as shown.

2. Insert round connector of 120-volt adapter into jack on back of charger.

3. Plug 120-volt adapter into electrical outlet.

If charging light is not on, check position of radio. Radio should be upright. The charge indicator light will stay on as long as the radio is in the charging well.

It normally takes about 15 hours to fully recharge battery pack. Battery pack will not be damaged if it stays in the charging well longer than that.

Note: To charge a single radio, you can bypass the desktop charger and simply insert the wall adapter’s round connector directly into the speaker/microphone/charge jack located on the top of the radio.

Use only the supplied rechargeable batteries and charger for recharging your Cobra microTALK radio.

Cobra recommends your radio is turned off while being charged.
