        WARNING: Important Safety Instructions for Battery

Read All Instructions 

• Do not incinerate the battery even if it is severely damaged or is completely worn 

out.

• Do not discard battery in a fire. The battery pack can explode in a fire. 
• Do not replace battery in any area labeled “Hazardous Atmosphere”. Any sparks 

created in a potentially explosive atmosphere can cause an explosion or fire.

• Do not disassemble, crush, puncture, shred, or otherwise attempt to change the 

form of your battery.

• Do not dry a wet or damp battery with an appliance or heat source, such as a hair 

dryer or microwave oven.

• A small leakage of liquid from the battery cells may occur under extreme usage or 

temperature conditions. This does not indicate a failure.  Do not open, deform or 

mutilate the battery as there may be corrosive materials which can cause damage 
to eyes or skin and may be toxic if swallowed.

However, if the outer seal is broken and this leakage gets on your skin: 

a. Wash quickly with soap and water. 
b. Neutralize with a mild acid such as lemon juice or vinegar. 
c. If battery liquid gets into your eyes, flush them with clean water for a minimum of 

10 minutes and seek immediate medical attention.

This product uses Lithium Polymer Battery. Do not transport package if damaged, a 
fire hazard could exist.

Recycle Battery 

Local, state or federal laws may prohibit disposal of batteries in ordinary trash. 
Consult your local waste authority for information regarding available recycling 
and/or disposal options.   

1.  Only accessories included in this package or specified by the manufacturer 

should be used with the radio. The 5V micro-USB charging input is compatible 

with most high quality micro-USB chargers that fully conform to the USB 

standards.

2.  Do not use cleaners or solvents to clean the exterior of the radio. Use only a 

damp or dry cloth.

3.  Do not expose this product to splashing or dripping water.
4.  Do not attempt to service the receiver yourself. Removing the cover will void 

the warranty. Changes or modifications not expressly approved by Cobra may 

void the user’s authority granted by the FCC to operate this device and should 

not be made.

5.  Do not plug the wall adaptor into the power outlet if the outlet is wet.
6.  Do not use any portable radio that has a damaged antenna. If a damaged 

antenna comes into contact with your skin, a minor burn can result.

WARNING: Important Safety Instructions

Before operating the radio, please read all safety and 

operating instructions. Save all instructions in a safe place 

for future reference.
