5. Operating Instructions
Understand the various functions and modes of your Oasser Dash Cam U1.
5.1. Video Recording
The dash cam records video in Full HD 1080p resolution at 30 frames per second, capturing a wide 170-degree viewing angle.

5.2. Loop Recording
The dash cam continuously records video in segments (e.g., 1, 3, or 5 minutes). When the MicroSD card is full, the oldest unlocked video segments are automatically overwritten by new recordings. This ensures continuous recording without manual intervention.
5.3. G-Sensor (Gravity Sensor)
The built-in G-Sensor detects sudden movements or impacts, such as collisions. When an event is detected, the current video segment is automatically locked and saved to prevent it from being overwritten by loop recording. This ensures critical footage is preserved.

5.4. Smart Parking Monitoring
When enabled, the parking monitor feature uses motion detection to record any moving objects close to your parked car. It can also utilize time-lapse recording, taking photos at set intervals to record changes, which are then compiled into a video clip. This provides surveillance when your vehicle is stationary.

5.5. Night Vision
The dash cam is equipped with night vision capabilities to enhance video clarity in low-light conditions. While it improves visibility, it is not military-grade night vision and relies on available ambient light sources.
5.6. Mute Function
The dash cam includes a mute function, allowing you to disable audio recording when desired. This can be useful for privacy or to reduce file size.
6. Maintenance
Proper maintenance ensures the longevity and reliable operation of your dash cam.
- Cleaning: Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the lens and screen. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents.
- SD Card Formatting: Regularly format your MicroSD card (at least once a month) through the dash cam's settings. This helps prevent data corruption and ensures smooth recording.
- Firmware Updates: Check the official Oasser website periodically for firmware updates. Updating the firmware can improve performance and address known issues. Follow the instructions provided with the firmware update carefully.
- Temperature: Avoid exposing the dash cam to extreme temperatures for extended periods, especially direct sunlight in a parked car, as this can affect battery life and internal components.
7. Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues with your Oasser Dash Cam U1, refer to the following common problems and solutions.
| Problem | Possible Cause / Solution |
|---|---|
| Dash cam does not power on. | Check the car charger connection and ensure the vehicle's cigarette lighter socket is functional. The dash cam requires continuous power from the car charger to operate. |
| Recording stops or freezes. | Ensure you are using a Class 10 or higher MicroSD card. Format the MicroSD card regularly. The card may be full or corrupted. Try a different MicroSD card. |
| Video segments have gaps or transitions issues. | Ensure the latest firmware is installed. Formatting the MicroSD card can also resolve this. |
| G-Sensor is too sensitive or not sensitive enough. | Adjust the G-Sensor sensitivity setting in the dash cam's menu. A lower setting will trigger less frequently, while a higher setting will trigger more easily. |
| Suction cup mount does not stay in place. | Ensure the windshield surface is clean and dry. Apply firm pressure and rotate the locking mechanism fully. If the mount is old, the suction cup material may have degraded and require replacement. |
| Night vision quality is poor. | Night vision enhances low-light recording but does not create light. Performance depends on ambient light. Ensure the windshield is clean and free of obstructions. |
| License plates are difficult to read in recordings. | While the dash cam records in 1080p, factors like speed, distance, lighting conditions, and reflections can affect license plate readability. Ensure the lens is clean. |
| Camera reboots or shuts down unexpectedly. | This can occur if the power supply is unstable or if the internal battery is low. Ensure a stable power connection. If the issue persists, the internal battery may need service. |
