Handle the radio gently. Keep the radio away from dust. Never put the radio in water or in a damp place. Avoid exposure to extreme temperatures. Installing Batteries • To install or replace batteries: 1. Remove belt clip by releasing belt clip latch and sliding clip up. 2. Using a flat head screw driver or edge of a coin (a quarter may be used), remove the screw securing the back battery panel. 3. Insert the supplied three AA rechargeable batteries or non-rechargeable alkaline batteries. Position batteries according to polarity markings. 4. Replace battery compartment cover, screw and belt clip. • Do not attempt to charge alkaline batteries. • Do not mix old and new batteries. • Do not mix alkaline, standard (carbon-zinc), or rechargeable (Ni-Cd, Ni-MH, etc.) batteries. To charge batteries in radio: 1. Check to see that the batteries have been inserted properly. 2. Insert the cable into the charge jack located at the top of the radio. 3. Plug the cable into USB power source. Use only the supplied rechargeable batteries and charger for recharging your Cobra microTALK radio. Cobra recommends your radio is turned off while being charged. Non-rechargeable alkaline batteries can also be used in your radio. Remove Belt Clip Remove Screw Insert Batteries Introduction 1 Nothing Comes Close to a Cobra ® Radio Charger Jack CXT645_MANL.indd 19/5/14 9:55 AM Operation Battery Low • When battery power is low, the final bar in the Battery Low icon will blink and an audible tone will sound twice before the radio shuts off.

September 19, 2014 Equipment Authorization Division Office of Engineering and Technology Federal Communications Commission 7435 Oakland Mills Road Columbia, MD 21046 Ref: FCC ID: BBO2146A Dear Sirs: Cobra Electronics Corporation requests acceptance of the labeling proposal described below for the transceiver bearing FCC identifier BBO2135A. The subject transceiver is a compact handheld model, authorized under 47CFR Part 95 for FRS and GMRS services. Because the majority of the transceiver housing is composed of display, speaker, operating controls, and a battery access cover, there is extremely limited space available to attach the required label carrying the FCC identifier. Attaching the label to the battery access cover is not acceptable because the battery access cover is a removable item. For this reason, Cobra proposes placing the label carrying the FCC identifier inside the battery compartment as shown in figure 1. Figure 1. The consumer packaging for these models includes the batteries as separate items, NOT installed in the radio. As such, the FCC identifier will be readily visible to the user before the batteries are installed and whenever the batteries are removed or replaced. In this location, the label will also be protected from physical abuse and remain readable for the anticipated life of the device. The consumer packaging for these models is a transparent plastic "clamshell" but, because the battery access cover is installed on the radio, the battery compartment cannot be seen at time of purchase. In order to meet the requirements of 47CFR Part 2.925 (d), Cobra will add the FCC identifier "BBO2146A" to the insert card within the clamshell packaging. Sincerely, Chris De Waal Sr. Project Engineer

Grant Notes
Power listed is ERP. SAR compliance for body-worn operating configurations is limited to the specific body-worn accessories, such as belt-clips and holsters, tested for this filing. End-users must be informed of the body-worn operating requirements for satisfying RF exposure compliance. This device is authorized to operate in the following radio services: FRS (Part 95B) or GMRS (Part 95A). There must be an informational insert inside the box (product package) or the Users Manual must include information that clearly informs the consumer (buyer/owner) when the radio is transmitting on GMRS frequencies, that operation on GMRS frequencies requires an FCC license and such operation is subject to additional rules specified in 47 C.F.R. Part 95. The reported SAR values are for a maximum duty factor of 50 %. The highest reported SAR values for head and body-worn accessory are 0.34 W/kg and 0.28W/kg, respectively.
