- Manual: Press and hold the power button to manually turn the dashcam on or off.
4.2 Recording Modes
- Normal Recording: Continuous recording when the vehicle is in motion.
- Emergency Recording (G-Sensor): Automatically locks and saves video footage upon detecting a sudden impact or collision.
- Parking Monitor: Records when motion or impact is detected while the vehicle is parked (requires hardwire kit for 24H monitoring).

5. Key Features
5.1 Full HD 1080P Recording
The front camera records in Full HD 1080P resolution, capturing clear and detailed video footage of the road ahead. The rear camera provides 720P resolution, offering comprehensive coverage of the vehicle's rear.
5.2 Wide Angle Lens
The front camera features a 150° wide-angle lens, and the rear camera has a 120° wide-angle lens. This extensive coverage minimizes blind spots and captures more of the surrounding environment, crucial for evidence in case of incidents.

5.3 Loop Recording
Seamless loop recording ensures continuous recording by automatically overwriting the oldest unlocked video files when the Micro SD card reaches its storage capacity. This means you never have to worry about manually clearing the card.

5.4 G-Sensor (Emergency Lock)
The built-in G-sensor detects sudden shakes or collisions. When triggered, it automatically locks the current video segment, preventing it from being overwritten by loop recording. This ensures critical evidence is protected.

5.5 24-Hour Parking Monitor
The dashcam offers 24-hour parking monitoring with two modes:
- Collision Detection Parking Mode: If the dashcam detects a collision after the vehicle turns off, it will automatically record for 1 minute and lock the video.
- Time-Lapse Parking Mode: Records at 1 frame per second (1FPS) to save storage space while providing continuous coverage. A 1-minute time-lapse video covers 30 minutes of real-time.
For continuous 24-hour monitoring, a hardwire kit (sold separately) is required to prevent battery drain.

5.6 Screen Saver
The screen saver function allows the display to turn off after a set period (e.g., 1, 3, or 5 minutes) while continuous recording proceeds in the background. This reduces distraction during driving and saves power.

5.7 Fatigue Driving Alert
This feature provides voice warnings at configurable intervals (1H, 2H, or 4H) to remind the driver to take a break, helping to prevent fatigue-related accidents.

5.8 Parking Assistance
When the rear camera is properly connected to the reverse light, the dashcam display will automatically show the rear view with parking guidelines when the vehicle is put into reverse, aiding in safe parking maneuvers.

5.9 Super Night Vision
Equipped with an F/2.0 aperture and a 6-glass lens, the M01 Pro dashcam captures brighter and sharper footage in low-light conditions, ensuring clear recordings even at night.

5.10 ADAS (Advanced Driver Assistance Systems)
The dashcam includes Lane Departure Warning System (LDWS), which alerts drivers if the vehicle drifts out of its lane without signaling. This feature is an auxiliary function and its accuracy may vary based on weather and road conditions; regular calibration is recommended.

6. Maintenance
- SD Card Formatting: To maintain optimal recording performance and prevent the SD card from becoming full with locked files, it is recommended to format the Micro SD card regularly (e.g., once a month). Back up any important videos before formatting.
- Cleaning: Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the dashcam lens and screen. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents.
- Temperature: Avoid exposing the dashcam to extreme temperatures for prolonged periods, as this can affect battery life and component integrity.
