Initial Battery Charge
Initial Charge
The Cobra-provided lithium-ion (LiON) battery pack may be
charged at home, in a car or in a boat using the appropriate
12V DC or 220V AC power cord with the charger.
1. Insert one (1) of the power cords into the back of the
drop-in charger.
2. Insert the other end of the power cord into the
appropriate 12V DC or 220V AC power source.
3. Remove the spacer from the charger and insert the entire
radio into the charger. The metal charge contacts on the
radio will contact the mating prongs in the charger to
transfer the charging current.
4. Observe that the red light on the front of the charger
glows to indicate that the battery pack is properly seated
and the charger is operating.
5. Allow the batteries to charge for three (3) to four (4)
hours before use. The light will change back to green
when the battery is fully charged.
WARNING
Only the rechargeable lithium-ion (LiON) battery pack
can be recharged. You MUST use one of the charging
devices provided with this radio. Do not substitute
any other type of charging adapter or charger base
for this radio. Battery damage, fire or explosion may
result. It is equally important to prevent the lithium-
ion (LiON) battery pack from freezing to obtain best
performance from the battery pack.
NOTE
If the drop-in charger is used on a boat, Cobra
recommends you attach it to a horizontal shelf or
vertical bulkhead (using the screw holes provided) to
prevent possible damage due to the boat rolling or
pitching. The charging base has been designed to
hold the battery pack in place during rough sea
conditions.
