1. Prepare Micro SD Card: Insert a Class 10, 16GB to 256GB Micro SD card into the designated slot on the dash cam. Ensure the card is inserted correctly.

3. Access Features: Open the Viidure app. You can now view live footage, download recorded videos, and adjust settings directly from your phone.

5. Operating Instructions

5.1 Basic Operation

• Power On/Off: The dash cam will automatically power on and begin recording when connected to your vehicle's power supply and the ignition is turned on. It will power off automatically when the vehicle is turned off.
• Recording: Once powered on, the dash cam automatically starts continuous loop recording.
• Voice Alerts: The dash cam provides built-in voice prompts (English only) to inform you of its status, such as starting recording or detecting an event.

5.2 Key Features

• 4K Ultra HD Recording: The front camera captures video at 3840x2160P resolution, ensuring clear and detailed footage.
• 170° Wide Angle View: The wide-angle lens provides extensive coverage of the road, minimizing blind spots.
• Starlight Night Vision: Enhanced low-light performance ensures clear recordings even in challenging night conditions.
• G-Sensor (Gravity Sensor): In the event of a sudden impact or collision, the G-sensor automatically detects the event and locks the current video file to prevent it from being overwritten. These emergency files are crucial for forensic evidence.
• Loop Recording: When the Micro SD card reaches its full capacity, the dash cam automatically overwrites the oldest unlocked video files to continue recording without interruption.
• 24-Hour Parking Monitoring: With the optional Voltage Reduction Cord (Buck Line) installed, the dash cam can monitor your vehicle continuously even when parked. It will automatically record if it detects vibrations or collisions, providing evidence of incidents while your car is unattended.
• Motion Detection: This feature allows the dash cam to start recording automatically when motion is detected in front of the vehicle, useful for parking surveillance.
• Wi-Fi Connectivity: Use the Viidure app on your smartphone to connect to the dash cam via Wi-Fi. This allows for live viewing of the camera feed, downloading recorded videos to your phone, and sharing them.

6. Maintenance

• Micro SD Card Care: Regularly format your Micro SD card (at least once a month) to maintain optimal performance and prevent data corruption. Use a high-quality, reputable brand Class 10 Micro SD card. Replace the card if you experience frequent recording errors.
• Cleaning: Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the dash cam's lens and body. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents that could damage the device.
• Power Source: Always use the original power cord provided or a certified replacement to ensure stable power supply. The built-in button battery is only for saving time and settings; the device requires external power for operation.
• Temperature: Avoid exposing the dash cam to extreme temperatures for prolonged periods, as this can affect its lifespan and performance.

7. Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your dash cam, please refer to the following common solutions:

• Dash Cam does not power on:
  • Ensure the power cord is securely connected to both the dash cam and the vehicle's power outlet.
  • Check if the vehicle's power outlet (e.g., cigarette lighter) is functioning correctly.
  • Try using a different power source or cable if available.
• Recording errors or footage not saving:
  • Ensure a Micro SD card is inserted and is Class 10 or higher.
  • Format the Micro SD card using the dash cam's settings or the Viidure app.
  • If issues persist, try a different, new Micro SD card. The card may be faulty or worn out.
• Wi-Fi connection issues:
  • Ensure the dash cam is powered on and its Wi-Fi is active.
  • Restart both the dash cam and your smartphone.
  • Check your phone's Wi-Fi settings to ensure you are connected to the dash cam's network.
  • Ensure the Viidure app has necessary permissions on your phone.
• Parking Monitor not working:
  • Verify that the optional Voltage Reduction Cord (Buck Line) is correctly installed and connected to a constant power source in your vehicle.
  • Check the dash cam's settings via the app to ensure parking monitoring is enabled.
• Poor video quality:
  • Ensure the camera lens is clean and free from dirt or smudges.
  • Check that the protective film has been removed from the lens.
  • Ensure the dash cam is securely mounted and not vibrating excessively.

8. User Tips

• High-Quality SD Card: Always use a high-endurance Micro SD card from a reputable brand (e.g., Samsung, SanDisk) specifically designed for dash cams. Generic or low-quality cards can lead to recording errors and data loss.
• Regular Formatting: Even with loop recording, it's good practice to manually format your Micro SD card every few weeks or months to prevent fragmentation and ensure smooth operation.
• Optimal Placement: Mount the dash cam in a location that provides a clear view of the road without obstructing your driving visibility. Ensure it is securely attached to prevent shaking, which can affect video quality.
• Firmware Updates: Check the manufacturer's website or the Viidure app periodically for firmware updates. Updates can improve performance, add features, and fix bugs.
