To Remove Battery Pack from Radio
1. Loosen the screw on the back of the battery pack.
2. Lift the bottom of the battery pack slightly to remove
it from the radio housing.
3. Pull battery pack out of the radio housing.
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.
