Setup and Installation

1. Initial Preparation

• SD Card Formatting: Before first use, insert a Class 10, U3 or higher speed Micro-SD card (not included, but 64GB is mentioned in product title, so assume it's included or recommended) into the dash camera. Format the SD card using the camera's settings menu.
• Power Source: The internal battery is primarily for parking monitoring. For continuous operation, connect the dash camera to your vehicle's power supply using the provided car charger. If parking monitoring is desired when the car is off, an external power bank may be required.
• Pre-Installation Test: Before permanent installation, connect the dash cam to the original cigarette lighter power source to verify that all three cameras (front, interior, rear) power on and record correctly.

2. Mounting the Dash Camera

The main dash camera unit is designed to be compact and can be installed behind the rearview mirror to avoid obstructing your view.

• Attach the suction cup mount to the main dash camera unit.
• Clean the chosen area on your windshield, preferably behind the rearview mirror, to ensure a secure suction.
• Press the suction cup firmly against the windshield and engage the locking mechanism.
• Adjust the camera angle to ensure the front lens captures the road ahead clearly.

3. Connecting the Rear Camera

• Route the rear camera cable from the main dash camera unit to the rear of your vehicle. Use the provided crowbar to tuck the cable neatly along the headliner and pillar trim.
• Mount the rear camera on the rear windshield or near the license plate using the provided screws or adhesive. Ensure the camera has a clear view of the area behind your vehicle.
• Connect the rear camera cable to the "AV-IN" port on the main dash camera unit.

Recording Modes and Features

• Three-Channel Recording: The C300 simultaneously records video from the front (170° wide-angle), interior (150° wide-angle), and rear (150° wide-angle) cameras, providing comprehensive coverage around your vehicle. All cameras record in 1080P resolution.
• Loop Recording: When the memory card is full, the dash camera automatically overwrites the oldest unlocked video files with new recordings, ensuring continuous recording. A 32GB SD card typically supports about 6 hours of recording.
• Accident Video Lock (G-Sensor): Equipped with a built-in gravitational acceleration sensor, the dash cam automatically detects sudden braking or collisions. In such events, the current video segment is locked and protected from being overwritten, serving as crucial evidence.

• Parking Monitoring & Motion Detection: In motion detection mode, the dash cam enters standby. It will automatically wake up and begin recording if the front camera detects movement. If an impact or collision is detected while the car is off, the dash cam will automatically turn on and record from all three cameras.

Maintenance

• SD Card Maintenance: Regularly format your Micro SD card (e.g., once a month) to maintain optimal recording performance and prevent data corruption.
• Cleaning: Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the camera lenses and the device body. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents.
• Temperature Considerations: The operating temperature range for the dash camera is -4°F to 122°F (-20°C to 50°C). Avoid exposing the camera to direct sunlight for extended periods, especially in hot climates. If parking in direct sun, consider adjusting the camera's position or removing it to prevent screen damage.
