2. Mounting the Front Dash Cam

• Clean Windshield: Thoroughly clean the area on your windshield where the dash cam will be mounted.
• Apply Protective Film: Place one of the clear electrostatic films on the cleaned area of the windshield. This protects your windshield from the adhesive.
• Attach Mount: Secure the GPS suction mount or adhesive mount to the protective film. Ensure it is positioned to provide an unobstructed view of the road.
• Attach Dash Cam: Slide the main dash cam unit onto the mounted bracket until it clicks securely into place.

• Connect Rear Camera: Plug the rear camera cable into the designated "REAR CAMERA" port on the main dash cam unit.

4. Power Connection

• Connect Car Charger: Plug the USB-C power cable into the main dash cam unit.
• Plug into Vehicle: Insert the car charger into your vehicle's 12V power outlet (cigarette lighter socket). The dash cam will automatically power on and begin recording when the vehicle starts.

Operating Instructions

1. Basic Operation

• Automatic Recording: The dash cam automatically starts recording when your vehicle's ignition is turned on.
• Power On/Off: The device powers on and off with your vehicle's ignition.
• Touch Screen: Use the 3-inch IPS touch screen for easy navigation and setting adjustments.

2. Video Recording

• Dual Channel Recording: The IIWEY S1 records simultaneously with the front camera at 4K (2160p@30fps) and the rear camera at 1080P@30fps.
• Loop Recording: Videos are recorded in continuous loops (e.g., 1-minute segments). When the SD card is full, the oldest unlocked files will be overwritten.
• Emergency Recording (G-Sensor): In the event of a sudden impact or collision, the built-in G-sensor will automatically detect the event and lock the current video segment to prevent it from being overwritten. The sensitivity of the G-sensor can be adjusted in the settings.

3. Advanced Features

• Super Night Vision: Equipped with a Sony STARVIS sensor (NTK96670 + SONY IMX335 STARVIS), the dash cam provides enhanced clarity and detail in low-light conditions.
• Built-in GPS: The integrated GPS module records driving speed, location (latitude and longitude), and route data. This information can be viewed via the mobile app or PC player.
• Built-in Wi-Fi: Connect your smartphone (Android or iOS) to the dash cam via Wi-Fi using the dedicated app. This allows for live viewing, video playback, and file transfer.
• Parking Monitor: When enabled, the parking mode uses motion and impact detection. If a collision or motion is detected while parked, the dash cam will automatically power on and record.
