Charging Batteries
When using the Cobra®NiMH battery pack (part No. FA-BP), the
batteries can be charged using the optional Cobra®Wall
Mount Charger (part No. PA-CE or PA-CU). Simply place the
Cobra

NiMH battery pack (part No. FA-BP) in the battery
compartment, open the CHG/INT tab on the side of the
unit and insert the plug into the charge jack to start charging.
The batteries should be fully charged in 12 hours. (NOTE:
Only the Cobra®NiMH battery pack [part No. FA-BP, see
Accessories] can be recharged.)
Battery Low
Battery power is indicated by the segments appearing at
the bottom of the LCD. As battery power decreases, fewer
segments will be visible. When the last segment begins
to flash, the batteries should be recharged or replaced.
Auto Battery Save
If there are no transmissions within 10 seconds, the unit will
