2. Set the volume control in a low position and use as low a volume as possible.
3. Avoid turning up the volume to block out noisy surroundings. Whenever possible, use your radio in a quiet environment with low background noise.
4. Limit the amount of time you use headsets or earpiece at high volume levels.
5. When using the radio without a headset or earpiece, do not place the radio’s speaker directly against your ear.
6. Observe all signs and instructions that require an electrical device or RF radio product to be switched off in designated areas, such as gas/refueling stations, hospitals, blasting areas, potentially explosive atmospheres, or aircraft.
7. If you experience a skin irritation after using this product, discontinue use and seek medical attention.
8. If the product or charger: overheats; has a damaged cord or plug; has been dropped or damaged; has been dropped into water, disconnect any charger from its power supply, discontinue use of the product.

Electromagnetic Interference
Nearly every electronic device is susceptible to electromagnetic interference (EMI) if inadequately shielded, designed, or otherwise configured for electromagnetic compatibility. Turn off your radio in any facility where posted notices instruct you to do so. These facilities may include hospitals or health care facilities that may be using equipment that is sensitive to external RF energy.

• When instructed to do so, turn off your radios when on board an aircraft. Any use of a RF device must be in accordance with applicable laws, regulations and airline crew instructions.
• Some radios may interfere with some hearing aids. In the event of such interference, you may want to consult your hearing aid manufacturer or physician to discuss alternatives.
• If you use any other personal medical device, consult the manufacturer of your device to determine if it is adequately shielded from RF energy. Your doctor or physician may be able to assist you in obtaining this information.

FCC Regulations

FCC Compliance
Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by Cobra Electronics could void your authority to operate the equipment.
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
(1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.

You should find all of the following items in this package:

Installation and Start-Up

Secondary Icons Select a location for the transceiver and microphone bracket that is convenient for operation. In automobiles, the transceiver is usually mounted to the underneath of the dash panel, with the microphone bracket beside it. 

A universal mounting bracket is supplied along with self-tapping screws and star washers. The transceiver is held in the universal mounting bracket by two thumbscrews, permitting adjustment at the most convenient angle.
To mount and connect your transceiver:

1. Hold the radio with the mounting bracket in the exact location desired. Remove the mounting bracket and use it as a template to mark the location for
   the mounting screws.
2. Drill necessary holes and secure mounting bracket in location.
3. Connect the antenna cable plug to the re cep ta cle marked “ANT” on the back of the unit.
4. Connect the red lead of the DC power cord to an accessory 12-volt fuse.
5. Connecting the black lead to the negative side of the automobile. This is usually the chassis. Any convenient location with good electrical contact (remove paint) may be used.
   NOTE
   Before installing the CB radio, visually check the vehicle battery connections to determine which battery terminal, positive or negative (positive is the larger of the two) is grounded to the engine block (or chassis).
6.  Mount the microphone bracket on the right side of the transceiver or near it using two screws supplied. When mounting in an automobile, place the bracket under the dash so the microphone is readily accessible.
7. Attach the four-pin microphone cable to the receptacle on the front of the unit and install the unit in bracket securely.

NOTE
For improved CB radio performance, connect the radio power leads directly to the vehicle battery. This helps to ensure the following: 1) reduces conducted power line noise into radio by taking advantage of the mechanical altering properties of the vehicle battery.
2) Using the correct wire gauge between the battery and radio, helps to minimize Voltage drop to the radio transmitter section to maximize transmitter RF output power.

Operating Your Mobile Radio
Antenna Connector
This female Connector on the rear panel permits the connection of the transmission line cable male connector to the transceiver.External Speaker
The external speaker jack on the rear panel is used for an External Speaker. The external speaker should have an 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.

NOTE
Cobra external speakers are rated 15 watts.
Public Address (PA)
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 feedback. Physical separation or isolation of the microphone and speaker must be employed when operating the PA at high output levels.
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, disconnects at fuse holder and ground connector.

Operating Your Mobile Radio
Turning on Your Mobile Radio
Turn the On-Off/Volume knob clockwise to turn the power on and set the desired listening volume.
CB Antenna
Only a properly matched antenna system will allow maximum power output. In mobile installations (cars, trucks, boats, etc.), a system that is nondirectional should be used. When installed in a boat, the transceiver will not operate at maximum efficiency without a ground plate unless the vessel has a steel hull. Before installing the transceiver in a boat, consult your dealer for information regarding an adequate grounding system.
NOTE
Cobra offers a line of antennas for use with your 19 Series CB Radio.
Consult your Cobra dealer or go to Cobra.com for antenna options.
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.

Operating Your Mobile Radio

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 the 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 is the “control gate” for incoming signals.

To squelch your radio:

1.  Full clockwise rotation closes the gate, allowing only very strong signals to enter.
2. Full counterclockwise rotation opens the “gate,” allowing all signals in.
3. 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.

RF Gain
This control is used to adjust receiver sensitivity. Maximum sensitivity allows weak signals to be received. However, very strong signals (such as from a nearby transmitter) can cause distortion at that setting. Adjust until the distortion disappears. Reducing the receiver’s RF Gain eliminates distortion from very strong incoming signals. To set RF Gain:

1.  Full counterclockwise rotation minimizes gain for maximum distortion control.
2. To achieve the desired level of distortion control, turn the RF Gain knob counterclockwise until the distortion is eliminated.
3. After moving away from the strong signal, turn the RF Gain knob fully clockwise to receive all possible signals.
   

Selecting a Channel
Rotate the Channel knob clockwise until the desired channel is displayed.
Channel 9/NOR/Channel 19
Set CH 9 to obtain instant access to the emergency channel. Set NOR position to use the channel knob to choose any of the 40 channels. Set CH 19 to obtain instant access to the information and calling channel.

CB/PA
In the CB position, the PA function is disabled and the unit will transmit and receive on the selected channel.
The PA function should not be used unless a PA speaker is connected.
In the PA position, the transmit function is disabled and the microphone output will go only to the PA speaker.

S/RF Power Meter
Shows relative transmitter RF output power and input signal strength when receiving. The Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) segments increase with signal strength.

TX Indicator
The TX Indicator will light when in the transmit mode. “Busy” will appear when there is an incoming signal.

Ignition Noise Interference
The use of a mobile receiver at low signal levels is normally limited by the presence of electrical noise.
Under most operating conditions, when the 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 the 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 authorized Cobra dealer or a two-way radio technician for help in locating and correcting the source of severe noise
Operating Procedure to Receive
Be sure that the power cord, antenna, and microphone are connected to the proper connectors before proceeding further (see pages 4 and 5). The CB/PA switch should be in the CB position.
To receive:

1.  Turn the radio on by rotating the On-Off/Volume knob clockwise.
2. Rotate the Squelch/RF Gain knob counterclockwise until the incoming signal is heard.
3. Select the desired channel.
4. Set the On-Off/Volume knob and the Squelch/RF Gain knob to a comfortable listening level.

Operating Procedure to Transmit
Be sure the antenna is properly connected to the radio before transmitting. Prolonged transmitting without an antenna, or with a poorly matched antenna, could cause damage to the transmitter.
To transmit:

1.  Select the desired channel.
2. 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.

Maintenance/Adjustment

Your Cobra CB transceiver is specifically designed for the environment encountered in mobile installations. The use of all-solid-state circuitry and its lightweight result in high reliability. Should a failure occur, however, review the following, then if necessary, replace parts only with identical parts? Do not substitute.

1.  Check connections to the source of power and make sure it is the 13.8 VDC required to operate your radio.
   
2.  Check the fuses in the DC power cord. The main power lead (red) has a two 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.
3.  Make certain the microphone is properly plugged in.
   
4. Make certain the antenna is properly assembled and connected. If you are unable to correct the problem, refer to product service on page 14 for the correct procedure for warranty and post-warranty service from Cobra.

The Cobra 19 Series radio transceiver represents one of the most advanced AM two-way radios for use as a Class D station in the Citizens Radio Service.
This unit features advanced Phase Lock Loop (PLL) circuitry providing complete cover age of all 40 CB channels.
