BATTERY OPERATION
The 7700 Pro has a built-in rechargeable battery to allow operation without a power cord

attached. The battery automatically goes into Recharge mode whenever a power cord is

plugged in to the unit.
On a full charge, the unit will last for approximately 2 hours of normal operation while in

battery mode.
When the battery is very cold or very hot, recharging could damage it. Under those con-

ditions, an alert message will be displayed and charging will be deferred until the battery

temperature has returned to the charging range. The unit can still be operated using the

12V cord.
MAINTENANCE
Very little maintenance is required to keep this 7700 Pro unit in good operating condition.
• Keep the unit components clean by wiping with a soft lens cleaning cloth. Do not

use solvents or harsh or abrasive cleaners, which could damage the case or scratch

the display.
• Protect the unit from moisture and from being dropped or struck by hard objects to

prevent damage.
• Consult the Cobra website (www.cobra.com) for the latest software and

database updates.
