Turning on Your microTALK Radio

On/OffPower

Press and hold the Power button until you

 

hear a series of audible tones indicating the

 

 

 

 

radio is on.

 

 

Your microTALK radio is now in Standby mode,

 

 

ready to receive transmissions. The radio is

 

 

always in Standby mode, except when the

 

 

Talk, Call or Power buttons are pressed.

 

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.
