4. Setup

4.1 Inserting the MicroSD Card

1. Ensure the dash cam is powered off.
2. Locate the MicroSD card slot on the side of the dash cam.
3. Insert the MicroSD card with the gold contacts facing the back of the camera until it clicks into place.
4. To remove, gently push the card in until it clicks, then release.

Note: A Class 10 or higher MicroSD card (up to 128GB) is recommended. Format the card in the dash cam before first use and periodically thereafter.

4.2 Mounting the Front Dash Cam

1. Clean the windshield area where you intend to mount the dash cam.
2. Attach the suction cup mount to the dash cam.
3. Press the suction cup firmly against the windshield and flip the lever to secure it.
4. Adjust the camera angle to ensure a clear view of the road ahead, ideally behind the rearview mirror to minimize obstruction.

4.3 Installing the Rear Camera

1. Connect the rear camera cable to the main dash cam unit.
2. Route the cable neatly along the vehicle's headliner, A-pillar, and door sills to the rear of the vehicle.
3. Mount the rear camera on the rear windshield using the adhesive pad, ensuring a clear view.
4. If the rear camera supports reverse assist, connect the red trigger wire to your vehicle's reverse light power source (consult a professional if unsure).

4.4 Powering the Device

1. Plug the car charger power cable into your vehicle's cigarette lighter socket.
2. Connect the other end of the power cable to the dash cam's power input port.
3. The dash cam will typically power on automatically when the vehicle's ignition is turned on and begin recording.

5. Operating

5.1 Basic Recording

Once powered on, the dash cam will automatically start recording. The recording indicator (usually a flashing red dot) will appear on the screen.

5.2 Menu Navigation

Use the physical buttons on the side or bottom of the dash cam to navigate through the menu options. Common buttons include:

• Power Button: Short press to turn screen on/off, long press to power device on/off.
• Menu Button: Enters/exits the settings menu.
• Up/Down Buttons: Navigate through menu options.
• OK/Confirm Button: Selects an option or starts/stops recording manually.
• Mode Button: Switches between Video, Photo, and Playback modes.

5.3 Formatting the SD Card

It is crucial to format the MicroSD card regularly (e.g., once a month) to maintain optimal performance and prevent data corruption.

1. Enter the menu settings.
2. Navigate to the 'Format' option.
3. Confirm to format the card. All data on the card will be erased.

5.4 G-Sensor Settings

The G-Sensor detects sudden impacts. When triggered, it locks the current video file to prevent it from being overwritten by loop recording. You can adjust its sensitivity in the settings menu (e.g., Low, Medium, High, Off).

5.5 Parking Monitor

When enabled, the Parking Monitor will automatically start recording if an impact is detected while the vehicle is parked and the dash cam is powered (e.g., via a hardwire kit). This feature provides surveillance even when you're away from your vehicle.

6. Maintenance

• Regular SD Card Formatting: Format your MicroSD card every 2-4 weeks to ensure stable recording and prevent file errors.
• Lens Cleaning: Use a soft, lint-free cloth to gently clean the front and rear camera lenses to ensure clear video quality. Avoid abrasive materials.
• Screen Cleaning: Wipe the LCD screen with a soft, dry cloth.
• Firmware Updates: Check the manufacturer's website periodically for any available firmware updates. Follow instructions carefully if updating.
