4. Operating Instructions

4.1 Powering On/Off

• Automatic: The device powers on and begins recording automatically when connected to vehicle power and the engine starts. It powers off automatically when the engine is turned off.
• Manual: Press and hold the Power button to manually turn the device on or off.

4.2 Recording Modes

• Loop Recording: The dash cam records video in continuous loops (e.g., 1, 3, or 5 minutes). When the TF card is full, the oldest unlocked files are overwritten. This ensures continuous recording without manual intervention.
• G-Sensor (Emergency Recording): In the event of a sudden impact or collision, the built-in G-sensor detects the event and automatically locks the current video file, preventing it from being overwritten by loop recording. The sensitivity of the G-sensor can be adjusted in the settings.

4.3 Parking Monitoring

When enabled, the parking monitor function allows the dash cam to automatically wake up and start recording if it detects vibration or impact while the vehicle is parked and the engine is off. This feature requires a continuous power supply or the dash cam's internal battery to have sufficient charge.
