• ILLUMINATED KEYPAD

When the phone rings, you lift the handset or
touch any button, the keypad automatically lights
up, making it easy to read and use, even in the
darkest room or late at night.

• ELECTRONIC HOLD 

Save time and steps in houses with more than
one telephone. After you’ve put a call on hold
your Intenna automatically releases when you,
or someone else, picks up another handset on
the same line. No need to come back and turn it
off, because it turns itself off automatically.
Combine this with the Intercom feature for
added convenience. (See p. 14).

• LAST NUMBER REDIAL

When the number you’ve dialed is busy, just get
a dial tone and press and release the Redial
button and your Cobra Intenna will automatically
redial that number. 

• VOICE HELP

Not sure what to do next?The digital VOICE
HELP feature guides you through every process
to help you get the most use out of your Cobra
Intenna. For help from a remote location, press #
and VOICE HELP will list your menu options for
you. From Cordless Handset, press REMOTE
button, then 

#

for VOICE HELP menu.

• LED DISPLAY WINDOW

Large, easy-to-read digits display the number of
messages stored, alert you to a power failure or
malfunction and helps guide you through various
procedures.

• FLASH BUTTON

Press and release the FLASH button to briefly
interrupt the phone line and access some of the
advanced options like “Call Waiting” or “Three
Way Calling” that may be offered by your
telephone company at an extra charge. 

• HANDSET VOLUME CONTROL

You can change the volume of your caller’s voice
from low to high and vice versa by pressing the
volume control 

Up/Dn

button located on the

side of your handset.

Aside from the features that have already
been outlined, your Cobra Intenna Cordless
Telephone Answering System is easier to
program and use than ever before because
many of the features you want most are built
right in—You don’t have to do a thing! 

• BUILT-IN ANTENNA

There’s no unsightly antenna to extend,
nothing to get bent or broken or possibly
even cause physical harm, because
antennas are built into the handset and base.
That, along with our Clear Call® PLUS
Compander Noise Reduction system which
minimizes background noise and
interference for optimum audio performance,
makes the Intenna quality comparable to a
standard corded phone.

• SCRAMBLED SIGNALS

Although you may not realize it, other people
with cordless phones, baby monitors or
scanners may be listening in on your
conversations. This is especially disturbing
when discussing personal information such
as credit card numbers, vacation plans, etc.
over the phone. Cobra’s Private Call™ Voice
Scrambling system eliminates that worry
forever!

• 25-CHANNEL RECEPTION 

Your Cobra Intenna automatically scans to
find a clean channel from the 25 channels
every time you pick up the handset, to offer
you the clearest, noise-free connection
available. Should interference occur during a
conversation, simply press and release the
CHANNEL button on the handset until you
reach a clear channel.

• DIGITAL SECURITY

Your Cobra Intenna is manufactured with
65,000 randomly generated security codes. 

• HEARING AID
COMPATIBLE (HAC)

Your Cobra Intenna handset is specially
designed to be compatible with standard
hearing aid systems. 

• OUT-OF-RANGE SIGNAL

When you press the TALK button and
immediately hear three beeps, you know
your handset is too far away from the base
to work properly. Move closer to the base
and try your call again.

• ANNOUNCE ONLY
OUTGOING MESSAGE

Simply slide the ICM Recording switch
located on the side of the base to the
ANNC ONLY position and your Cobra  quits
taking incoming messages and just plays
your outgoing message. (You will want to
change your outgoing message to reflect
that). Upon switching, the VOICE HELP
prompts you to record an outgoing
message if none is recorded. The LED
display will read          (Announce Only), to
let you know no incoming messages can be
received.To receive incoming messages
again, slide the ICM Recording switch back
to “2 Min”.

• BASE ELECTRONIC
VOLUME CONTROL

Gradually move from low to high volume
and vice-versa by pressing either end of the
VOL button on the base.

• PULSE/TONE SWITCH

Your Cobra Intenna may be set to either
PULSE or TONE, (depending upon your
phone system) by flipping the switch
located on the back of the base. Mixed
PULSE and TONE dialing may be used
(when needed to access certain long-
distance or computerized banking services)
by setting the base switch to PULSE and
pressing the      button on the handset to
temporarily switch to TONE. Hanging up
resets to PULSE.

• RINGER SWITCH

You’re taking a nap, watching your favorite
TV show or just got the baby to sleep and
don’t want to be disturbed. Temporarily turn
off the ringer by moving the switch on the
back of the base into the off position. The
answering system remains on, taking
messages for later.

• 2-DIGIT DISPLAY CODES

Easy-to-understand LED codes tell you
instantly if there are messages waiting or a
system problem.
