Notes

All protection is automatically recovered.
To protect the battery, if the unit needs to be restarted 

after low voltage protection, the voltage of DC input should 

be above 12V. 
To extend the life of the fan, it will stop when there is no 

load. The speed of the fan increases as the load increases.
The unit is completely insulated in input and output for 

added safety.

Limited Two-Year Warranty  

For Products Purchased in the U.S.A.

Cobra Electronics Corporation warrants that its Cobra power 

inverter, and the component parts thereof, will be free of defects 

in workmanship and materials for a period of two years from the 

date of first consumer purchase. This warranty may be enforced by 

the first consumer purchaser, provided that the product is utilized 

within the U.S.A. 
Cobra will, without charge, repair or replace, at its option, defective 

power inverters, products or component parts upon delivery to the 

Cobra Factory Service department, accompanied by proof of the 

date of first consumer purchase, such as a duplicated copy of a 

sales receipt. 
You must pay any initial shipping charges required to ship the 

product for warranty service, but the return charges will be at 

Cobra’s expense, if the product is repaired or replaced under 

warranty. This warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you 

may also have other rights which may vary from state to state.
Exclusions: This limited warranty does not apply:
1.  To any product damaged by accident.
2.  In the event of misuse or abuse of the product or  

as a result of unauthorized alterations or repairs.

3.  If the serial number has been altered, defaced, or removed.

All implied warranties, including warranties of merchantability  

and fitness for a particular purpose are limited in duration to the 

length of this warranty. Cobra shall not be liable for any incidental, 

consequential or other damages; including, without limitation, to 

damages resulting from loss of use or cost of installation. 
Some states do not allow limitations on how long an implied warranty 

lasts and/or do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or 

consequential damages, so the above limitations may not apply to you.
