Important Safety Instructions
When using your telephone equipment, basic safety precautions should always
be followed to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock and injury to persons,
including the following:
1. Read and understand all instructions.
2. Follow all warnings and instructions marked on the product.
3. Unplug this product from the wall outlet before cleaning. Do not use liq-
uid cleaners or aerosol cleaners. Use a damp cloth for cleaning.
4. Do not locate base unit near water, for example, near a bath tub, wash
bowl, kitchen sink, or laundry tub, in a wet basement or near a swimming
pool.
5. Do not place this product on an unstable cart, stand or table. The product
may fall, causing serious damage to the product.
6. Slots and openings in the cabinet and the bottom or back are provided for
ventilation, to protect it from overheating; these openings must not be
blocked or covered. The openings should never be blocked by placing the
product in the bed, sofa, rug or other similar surface. This product should
never be placed near or over a radiator or heat register. This product
should not be placed in a built-in installation unless proper ventilation is
provided.
7. This product should be operated only from the type of power source indi-
cated on the marking label. If you are not sure of the type of power supply to your home, consult your dealer or local power company.
8. Do not allow anything to rest on the power cord. Do not locate this prod-
uct where the cord will be abused by persons walking on it.
9. Do not overload outlets and extension cords as this can result in the risk
of fire or electric shock.
10. Never push objects of any kind into this product through cabinet slots as
they may touch dangerous voltage points or short out parts that could
result in a risk of fire or electric shock. Never spill liquid of any kind on
the product.
11. To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not disassemble this product, but
take it to qualified servicemen when service or repair work is required.
Opening or removing covers may expose you to dangerous voltages or
other risks. Incorrect reassembly can cause electric shock when the appliance is subsequently used.
12. Avoid using telephone (other than a cordless type) during an electrical
storm. There may be a remote risk of electric shock from lightning.
13. Do not use the telephone to report a gas leak in the vicinity of the leak.
Important Safety Instructions (continued)
14. Unplug this product from the wall outlet and refer servicing to qualified
service personnel under the following conditions:
A. When the power supply cord or plug is damaged or frayed.
B. If liquid has been spilled into the product.
C. If the product has been exposed to rain or water.
D. If the product does not operate normally by following the operating in-
structions. Adjust only those controls that are covered by the operating
instructions because improper adjustment of other controls may result
in damage and will often require extensive work by a qualified techni-
cian to restore the product to normal operation.
E. If the product has been dropped or the cabinet has been damaged.
F. If the product exhibits a distinct change in performance.
The cordless handset operates on batteries, please read and follow instruc-
tions:
A. Use only the battery pack supplied with the unit or identical replace-
ment.
B. Do not dispose of battery pack in a fire. The cells may explode. Check
with local codes for possible disposal instruction.
C. Since released electrolyte is corrosive and may cause damage to eyes or
skin and may be toxic if swallowed:
C1. Do not open or mutilate battery pack.
C2. Always replace the entire battery pack rather than reusing one or
more cells.
C3. Do not expose batteries to heat or flame.
D. Exercise care in handling the battery pack in order not to "short" the
battery contacts with conducting materials such as rings, bracelets, and
keys. The battery or conductor may overheat and cause burns.
15. Never install telephone wiring during a lightning storm.
16. Never install telephone jacks in wet locations unless the jack is specifically
designed for wet locations.
17. Never touch uninsulated telephone wires or terminals unless the telephone
line has been disconnected at the network interface.

Introduction
Thank you for your purchase of a Cobra¨
Intenna®
Cordless Telephone Ñ
the world’s first and only full-range-power cordless telephone without any
external antennas!
No more extending, bending, or breaking the antennas found on other cordless phones Ñ your Cobra
Intenna
conceals its antenna systems inside the
handset and base, where they should be, out of your way.
Now you can install your new Cobra
Intenna
cordless phone virtually anywhere. Without cumbersome external antennas to worry about, put your new
phone anywhere a corded phone can go! Then enjoy the freedom of using
your new cordless phone all over the house as well as outside in your yard.
Your new Cobra Model CP-2500 has 25 selectable channels (the maximum
number available) for optimum interference-free use, and 10-number memory dialing. The CP-2500 is also equipped with an extra-life battery which
allows you to keep the phone away from the base for up to 14 days between
recharges, and its Clear Call® PLUS Circuitry with compander noise-re-
duction system ensures corded-phone sound quality.
Please take a moment to review this booklet and become familiar with all of
the many user-friendly convenience features built into your new Cobra
Intenna

If you need further assistance installing or using your new
Intenna
Cordless
Telephone, please call our toll-free consumer “hotline” at 312-889-3087
(773-889-3087 effective October 12, 1996), 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. CST, Monday
through Friday (except holidays).
NOTE: Some cordless telephones operate at frequencies that may cause interference to nearby TV's and VCR's. To minimize or prevent such interference, the
base of the cordless telephone should not be placed near or on top of TV's or
VCR's. If interference is experienced, moving the cordless telephone base further away from the TV or VCR will often reduce or eliminate the interference.
CAUTION: Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by Cobra
could void the user's authority to operate the equipment.

Note: The advanced channel scanning technique employed by the
CP-2500Q ensures that a clear channel is chosen. The TALK button
flashes during scanning. In the presence of radio interference (such as
another cordless telephone or baby monitor in the area) there may be
a slight delay in accessing the line when placing a call.
Installation Information
Maximum range is obtained by installing the base unit in the highest living
area of your home. The location you choose must be near an electrical outlet
and a telephone wall jack.
