button is released.

To Display the Backlight Momentarily:

Key Lock

To prevent accidental changes to your settings, you can lock 
all of the buttons on the front of the the radio along with the 
Squelch Defeat button.

To Lock or Unlock the Buttons:

button for two 

seconds. The 

Key Lock

 icon will appear or disappear in 

the LCD. When 

Key Lock

 is On, pressing any of the buttons 

on the front of the radio will result in a three beep error 
message.
Both the 

Backlight/Key Lock

 button and the 

Talk

 button are 

active — you can 

Receive (Rx)

 or 

Transmit (Tx)

 a message 

with 

Key Lock

 On, but you cannot change the channel.

Channel Up/Down Buttons

Your radio will 

Receive (Rx)

 and 

Transmit (Tx)

 VHF signals on 

the channel indicated on the LCD display. You can change the 
channel at any time using the 

Channel Up/Down

 buttons.

To Change Channels:

Press the 

Channel Up/Down

 buttons.

If you are on Channel 88, pressing the 

Channel Up

 button 

will advance to Channel 01. If you are on Channel 01, 
pressing the 

Channel Down

 button will advance to 4 digit 

channel.
You can press and hold the 

Channel Up/Down

 button for 

fast advance. The beep sound will occur only at the first 
press of the buttons and not during fast advance.
If the new channel selected is restricted to low power, the 
radio will automatically switch to 

Low Power 

mode and the 

Low Power

 icon will appear on the LCD.

If the radio is in the 

Key Lock

 mode, the channel will not 

change and the three beep error signal will sound.

SCAN Button

SCN

 button to scan all channels.  

The 

SCAN

 icon will display on the LCD display. Scanning 

begins at lower channels, and scans to higher channels.

 button to change the scan direction.

When a signal is received in 

SCAN

 mode, the radio will pause 

10 seconds before resuming

 button is pressed.

High/Medium/Low (HI/MED/LO) Power Button

Your radio can transmit selectively at .5, 1 or 3 watts of power. 
Cobra suggests you maintain the low power setting for 
short-range communication. You will conserve battery life  
and avoid overpowering nearby stations by using a low  
power signal. Use the 

High Power 

setting for long-range 

communications or when you do not receive a response  
to a signal sent at .5 or 3 watt.

To Toggle Between Hi/Med/Lo Power Modes:

Press the 

Power Level/Weather

 button. The LCD  

will show which mode is in effect. Some channels are 
restricted for a maximum use of 1 watt. Your radio will 
automatically set the power to 

Low Power 

mode when  

you select those channels.
