TO THE STORE! See customer assistance on page A1.

For Products Purchased in the U.S.A.

If your product should require factory service, please call Cobra first 
before sending your radio. This will ensure the fastest turn-around 
time on your repair. You may be asked to send your radio to the 
Cobra factory. It will be necessary to furnish the following to have 
the product serviced and returned.

1) For warranty repair include some form of proof-of-purchase, 

such as a mechanical reproduction or carbon of a sales receipt. 
If you send the original receipt, it cannot be returned. 

2) Send the entire product. 

3) Enclose a description of what is happening with the radio. 

Include a typed or clearly printed name and address of where 
the radio is to be returned. 

4) Pack radio securely to prevent damage in transit. If possible, 

use the original packing material. 

5) Ship prepaid and insured by way of a traceable carrier such 

as United Parcel Service (UPS) or Priority Mail to avoid loss in 
transit to Cobra Factory Service, Cobra Electronics Corporation, 
6500 West Cortland Street, Chicago, Illinois 60707 U.S.A. 

6) If the radio is in warranty, upon receipt of your radio it will 

either be repaired or exchanged depending on the model. 

Please allow approximately three to four weeks before 
contacting Cobra for status. If the radio is out of warranty, 
a letter will automatically be sent informing you of the repair 
charge or replacement charge. If you have any questions, 
please call 773-889-3087 for assistance.
