Batteries and Charger
Initial Charge
The Cobra-provided LiON battery pack may be charged at
home, in a car or in a boat using the appropriate 12V or
120V 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 or 120V power source.
3. Remove battery pack spacer from the charger and insert
the entire radio/battery into the charger. The metal charge
contacts on the battery 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 five (5) to six (6) hours
before use. The light will change back to green when the
battery is fully charged.
WARNING
Only the rechargeable 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.
