General luetooth Operation and Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Industry Standard Range for luetooth
I
The industry standard range for luetooth wireless technology is 30 feet
(10 meters). The HH475 will loose its pairing with the mobile phone if the
mobile phone and the HH475 are separated further than this. The HH475 will
automatically re-connect with cell phone when user comes back into range.
How many phones can the HH475 pair with?
I
The HH475 can only pair with one mobile phone at a time. This is the standard
operation for any luetooth headset or in-car luetooth system.
Do I need to have my mobile phone with me?
I
Yes, the phone call is actually completed through your mobile phone and your
mobile phone operator/carrier. The mobile phone must be with the 30 feet
(10 meters) range of the HH475. The HH475 does not increase the offshore
range of your mobile phone.
Can I use a standard luetooth headset with this radio?
®
I
No, the HH475 is using the headset profile of the luetooth specification to pair
with your mobile phone. It can not pair to another luetooth headset.
Can I use this unit as a speakerphone or hands-free device?
I
Turning on VOX allows you to use the radio without pressing the PTT
(Push to Talk) button. The radio will still need to be operated in a face held
position with the microphone close to the mouth. This radio uses a noise
cancelling microphone, and it will not operate well from the belt clip or
another hands-free position.

Please make sure to note your VOX setting.
I
If VOX is set to On, then the receiving caller might hear conversation and noise in
your background. This setting is retained in memory. If switched On, then it will
be On the next time the radio is switched On and paired.
Can I use my mobile phone for emergency use?
I
No, Cobra does not endorse cellular telephones as a substitute for marine radios.
They generally cannot communicate with rescue vessels and, if you make a distress
call on your cellular telephone, only the party you call will be able to hear you.
Additionally, cellular telephones may have limited coverage over water. If you do
not know where you are, the Coast Guard will have difficulty finding you if you
are using your cellular telephone. However, cellular telephones can have a place
onboard where cellular coverage is available – to allow social conversations and
keep the marine frequencies uncluttered and available for their intended use.
