The foil protects the car finish. Installation Warning Warning: This product is intended for off road use. Please check the laws and regulations in your state, county and/or municipality regarding installation and use of this product. The manufacturer makes no claims as to the edequacy of use and assumes no liability for any improper use or installation. Installation and use are solely the responsibility of the purchaser. Note Mobile installations (cars, trucks, boats, etc) should be made only with a non-directional antenna system. A standard antenna connector (Type SO-239) is provided on the Connector Box for easy connection to a standard PL-259 cable termination. Installation Instructions This magnetic mount antenna has been tested to withstand normal high speed driving. The magnet will hold securely under the following conditions. Always make sure the antenna base is on a clean, flat, painted or unpainted surface. The magnetic base will not hold on non-metallic or aluminum surfaces. Periodically clean all parts of antenna to maintain maximum performance. Clean dust and dirt away from area where antenna will be placed. Place antenna on vehicle, roof, trunk lid, or any flat surface. For best results centrally locate. Run coax cable thru to inside of vehicle routed in a manner where it will not interfere with the driver or controls and connect to the antenna connector of the radio. 4 5 20 XTR MANUAL.qxd 4/17/03 4:56 PM Page 6 Operation Turning on Your Radio Turning on Turn volume control clockwise to turn power on and set the desired listening volume. Operation Squelch This control is used to cut off or eliminate receiver background noise in the absence of an incoming signal. Adjust until the receiver noise disappears. This will require the incoming signal to be slightly stronger than average receiver noise. Further clockwise rotation will increase the threshold level which a signal must overcome in order to be heard. Only strong signals will be heard at a maximum clockwise setting. Squelch Microphone Connector RX Microphone Connector Allows for convenient removal of the microphone plug when storage is required. The microphone MUST be connected to the unit at all times when in use, for proper operation. 4 3 1 2 SHIELD TX AUDIO 6 7 20 XTR MANUAL.qxd 4/17/03 4:56 PM Page 8 Operation Setting Squelch Gate closed STRONG SIGNALS Operation Setting Squelch Squelch is the "control gate" for incoming signals. Full clockwise rotation closes the gate allowing only very strong signals to enter. To achieve the Desired Squelch Setting (DSS), turn the Squelch control counterclockwise until you hear noise. Now turn the control clockwise just until the noise stops. This is the DSS setting.

Under most operating conditions, when signal level is adequate, the background noise does not present a serious problem. Also, when extremely low level signals are being received, the transceiver may be operated with vehicle engine turned off. The unit requires very little current and therefore will not significantly discharge the vehicle battery. Even though this radio has an automatic noise limiter, in some installations ignition interference may be high enough to make good communications impossible. Consult your COBRA dealer or a 2-way radio technician for help in locating and correcting the source of severe noise. Ignition Noise Interference Note When using the unit with cigarette adapter, turn off when not in use to avoid draining the battery. 13.8V DC Note Cobra external speakers are rated 15 watts Antenna Connector This female connector permits connection of the transmission line cable male connector to the transceiver. External Speaker The External Speaker Jack is used for an external speaker. The external speaker should have 8-ohm impedance and be rated to handle at least 4.0 watts. When the external speaker is plugged in, the internal speaker is automatically disconnected. Power These wires supply power to the CB radio. This cable is permanently attached to the radio. If you wish to remove the radio after installation, disconnect at fuse holder and ground connector. Public Address An external PA speaker may be connected to the PA speaker jack when used as a public address system. The speaker should be directed away from the microphone to prevent acoustic feed-back. Physical separation or isolation of the microphone and speaker must be employed when operating the PA at high output levels. Temporary Mobile Operation For temporary mobile operation, you may want to purchase an additional cigarette lighter adapter from your COBRA dealer. This adapter and a magnetic mount antenna allow you to quickly "install" your transceiver for temporary use. PA ANT EXT Temporary Mobile Operation Note Red wire is connected to positive side of socket center tip. Black wire is connected to negative side contacts. 13.8V DC Note Radio resets to CH 9 when connected to cigarette lighter plug. 12 13 20 XTR MANUAL.qxd 4/17/03 4:56 PM Page 14 Operation Operating Procedure to Receive Operating Procedure to Receive Be sure that power cord, antenna and microphone are connected to the proper connectors before proceeding further. The CB/PA switch should be in the "CB" position. Turn the radio ON by rotating the VOLUME CONTROL clockwise. Rotate SQUELCH CONTROL counterclockwise until incoming signal is heard. Select the desired channel. Set VOLUME CONTROL to a comfortable listening level. Maintenance Maintenance and Adjustment Your COBRA CB transceiver is specifically designed for the environment encountered in mobile installations. The use of all solid state circuitry and its light weight result in high reliability. Should a failure occur, however, review the following, then if necessary, replace parts only with identical parts. Do not substitute. Check connections to the source of power and make sure it is the 13.8 VDC required to operate your radio. Check the fuses in the DC power cord. The main power lead (red ) has a 2 amp 3AG type fuse in its holder. Use only the above specified type and size fuse for maximum protection. Failure to do so will void the warranty. Make certain the microphone is properly plugged in. Make certain the antenna is properly assembled and connected. If you are unable to correct the problem, refer to the SERVICE INSTRUCTIONS at the end of this manual for the correct procedure for warranty and post-warranty service from COBRA. Maintenance/ Adjustment Operating Procedure to Transmit Operating Procedure to Transmit Select the desired channel. The receiver and transmitter are controlled by the press-to-talk switch on the microphone. Press the switch and the transmitter is activated; release switch to receive. When transmitting (on a clear channel), hold the microphone two inches from the mouth and speak clearly in a normal voice. Be sure the antenna is properly connected to the radio before transmitting. Prolonged transmitting without an antenna, or a poorly matched antenna, could cause damage to the transmitter. 14 15 20 XTR MANUAL.qxd 4/17/03 4:56 PM Page 16 Warning & Rules Replacement Warning Replacement Warning Replacement or substitution of certain parts with replacements other than those recommended by Cobra may be a violation of the technical regulations of Part 95 of the FCC rules, or of Type Acceptance requirements of Part 2 of said rules. When making adjustments, be sure to re-read applicable portions of this instruction manual to make certain you are following correct procedure and that the radio was properly installed, etc. CB Distress Data CB Distress Data When transmitting an emergency, you should request a "REACT BASE" and provide the CB distress data (called CLIP): C all Sign Identify yourself.
