NOTE
The LiON battery pack can also be charged in the
battery charger without being installed in the radio.
Insert the spacer into the battery charger to support
the battery pack during this charging process. Follow
the same procedures in “Initial Charge” to charge the
battery pack.
NOTICE
Lithium-ion (LiON) batteries are toxic. Please dispose of
properly. Some marine suppliers and electronics retailers
accept old battery
packs for recycling and some municipal
waste disposal
agencies have special provisions for
battery disposal.
Alkaline Batteries
The alkaline battery tray acts as a backup or “Emergency” power
source should the battery pack run low on power and need to be
recharged. The radio will transmit at full power when using five
(5) new AA alkaline batteries.
WARNING
Never attempt to recharge alkaline batteries. They are not
made to be recharged, and should be disposed of in
a proper manner.

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