Our Thanks to You
•
Thank you for purchasing a Cobra Bluetooth Handset.
Properly used, this Cobra product will give you many years
of reliable service.
How Your Cobra Bluetooth Handset Works
This handset allows use of mobile telephones (cell phones) while protecting them
from potential damage in the outdoor environment.
Bluetooth wireless technology allows voice and data transmission over short
distances by means of a radio link. Using that technology, the Bluetooth handset
allows your cell phone to be turned on and stowed in a waterproof and protected
location on the vehicle. Calls are then made and received using the Bluetooth
handset.

VOX
•
The VOX function converts the handset microphone’s pickup of your voice from
being controlled by the PTT button to being activated by your voice. When VOX
is On, the PTT button does not need to be pushed to transmit your voice and
you can just speak into the microphone.
The following procedures define common operating functions of the handset.
Power On/Off
Press the Power button at the top of the handset for two seconds to turn it On
or Off.
When VOX is Off, you need to push the PTT button while speaking.
The first time you turn On the Cobra Bluetooth handset you will see a message that
the unit is ready for pairing with a cell phone. The message also provides a
password. If you do not want to pair a device right away, press the Escape button to
go to Standby mode.
When the unit is subsequently turned On, it will search for the currently selected
Bluetooth device and go to Standby mode.
To Change Between VOX On and Off:
1. Press and hold the Mode button for two seconds while a call is in progress.
NOTE
When the VOX function is On in noisy environments, the caller connected

Back Light
Mode
A light is provided behind the LCD screen to improve visibility of the information

there may be times you want to suspend the Bluetooth pairing and continue
part or all of the call on your cell phone itself.
To Turn the Back Light On or Off:
1. Press the Back Light/Lock button.
Lock
To Change Between Handset and Cell Phone Modes:
The Lock function disables the operation of all buttons except PTT, Back Light/Lock

are ignored by the unit. A call can be continued if it was started before Lock was
turned On, but new calls cannot be made or answered when Lock is On.
1. Press the Mode button to switch the call to your cell phone.
2. Talk and listen to your cell phone in the usual way. The handset will be inactive.
3. Press the Mode button to restore operation to the handset.

Maintenance

For Products Purchased In The U.S.A.
Very little maintenance is required to keep your Cobra Bluetooth handset in good
operating condition:
Cobra Electronics Corporation warrants that its Cobra Bluetooth handset, and the component
parts thereof, will be free of defects in workmanship and materials for a period of one year
from the date of first consumer purchase. This warranty may be enforced by the first
consumer purchaser, provided that the product is used within the U.S.A.
I
Keep the handset clean by wiping with a soft cloth and mild detergent. Do not use solvents
or harsh or abrasive cleaners, which could damage the case or scratch the LCD screen.
I
I
If the handset is exposed to salt water, wipe with a soft, moist cloth at least once a day to
prevent buildup of salt deposits, which could interfere with button operation.
Cobra will, without charge, repair or replace, at its option, defective handsets, 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.
To determine the software version in your handset, press and hold the PTT button
while turning On the power. The version number will show on the LCD screen for
five seconds, then proceed to normal startup.
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.
