Maintenance

Very little maintenance is required to keep your CobraMarine

VHF radio

in good operating condition.

Keep the radio and charger 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.

If the radio is exposed to salt water, wipe with a soft, moist cloth at least once a day

to prevent build-up of salt deposits, which could interfere with button operation.

If the radio will be stored for a long period, such as over the winter,

remove the batteries from the battery tray and store them in a separate

package. This is especially so if you are using alkaline batteries.
