Important Safety Information

NEVER connect the transceiver to AC power. It can be a fire hazard, 

may cause an electric shock and may damage the transceiver.

NEVER mount the transceiver or microphone where they might interfere 

with operation of your vessel or cause injury.

DO NOT allow children or anyone unfamiliar with proper procedures to

operate the radio without supervision.

Failure to observe any of these warnings may cause you to exceed 

recommended RF exposure limits or create other dangerous conditions.

CAUTIONS

AVOID using or storing the radio at temperatures below -20°C or above 50°C.

NEVER connect the transceiver to DC power greater than 16 volts or to 

any DC source with reversed polarity. Doing so will damage the transceiver.

DO NOT cut the power cables attached to the transceiver. Improper

reconnection with reversed polarity will damage the transceiver.

POSITION your radio, external speakers and cables at least 1 metre away from

your vessel’s magnetic navigation compass. CHECK your compass before 

and after installation to be sure that it has not introduced any deviation.

DO NOT attempt to service any internal parts yourself. Have any 

necessary service performed by a qualified technician.

DO NOT drop the transceiver or microphone. Doing so may crack the 

case or damage a waterproof seal. Once these items have been dropped, 

the original waterproofing cannot be guaranteed.

DO NOT use chemicals or solvents such as mineral spirits and alcohol 

to clean your radio. They may damage the case surfaces.

Changes or modifications to your radio MAY VOID its compliance with 

government rules and make it illegal to use.

Important Safety Information

Before installing and using your CobraMarine

VHF radio, 

please read these general precautions and warnings.

Warning and Caution Statements

To make the most of this radio, it must be installed and used properly. 

Please read the installation and operating instructions carefully before 

installing and using it. Special attention must be paid to the WARNING

and CAUTION statements in this manual.

WARNING 

Statements identify conditions that could result in personal injury or loss of life.

CAUTION 

Statements identify conditions that could cause damage to the radio 

or other equipment.

General Precautions

The following WARNINGS and CAUTIONS will make you aware of RF exposure

hazards and how to assure you operate the radio within the recommended RF

exposure limits.

WARNINGS

Your radio generates electromagnetic RF (radio frequency) energy when 

it is transmitting. To ensure that you and those around you are not exposed 

to excessive amounts of that energy, DO NOT touch the antenna when

transmitting and KEEP yourself and all others on your vessel the required

distance away from the antenna while transmitting. SEE page 28 in the

antenna requirements section for further information.

DO NOT operate the radio without a proper antenna or equivalent 

dummy load attached. Doing so may expose you to excessive RF 

energy and will damage the radio.

DO NOT transmit more than 10% of the time the radio is in use — 

50% duty cycle. The radio is transmitting when the Talk button is 

pressed and the transmit information shows on the LCD screen.

ALWAYS use only Cobra Electronics Corporation

authorized accessories.

DO NOT operate the radio in an explosive atmosphere, near blasting sites, 

or in any area where signs are posted prohibiting radio transmissions.
