3.1. Inserting the SD Card

An SD card (not included) is required to store recordings. The AZDOME M330 supports up to 128GB. For reliable performance, a Class 10 or U3 micro SD card from a reputable brand like SanDisk is recommended. Format the SD card with the dash cam before first use and reformat monthly.

3.4. App Installation and WiFi Connection

Download the "AZDOME" app from your device's app store. The dash cam features built-in WiFi, allowing you to view, share, and download videos in real-time. Ensure your phone's cellular data is turned off when connecting to the dash cam's WiFi network to prevent connectivity issues.

4. Operating Instructions

4.1. Basic Recording and Loop Recording

Once powered on, the dash cam automatically begins recording. It features loop recording, which continuously records video in segments (e.g., 1, 2, or 3 minutes). When the SD card is full, the oldest unlocked files are overwritten to make space for new recordings.

4.2. Smart Voice Control

The M330 dash cam supports 8 types of voice commands for hands-free operation, enhancing driving safety and convenience. Examples include "Take picture" and "Turn on WiFi".

4.3. G-Sensor Functionality

The built-in G-sensor detects sudden movements or collisions. In the event of an impact, the G-sensor automatically locks the current video segment to prevent it from being overwritten by loop recording. The sensitivity of the G-sensor can be adjusted via the AZDOME app settings (Low, Medium, High).

4.4. 24H Parking Mode

The M330 offers two parking modes for continuous surveillance when your vehicle is parked:

• Collision Detection Parking Mode: The G-sensor detects impacts and records video.
• Time-Lapse Parking Mode: The camera records continuously for 24 hours (requires a hardwire kit, not included).

4.5. Super Night Vision

Equipped with WDR (Wide Dynamic Range) technology and a 6-glass lens, the M330 delivers clear video recordings even in low-light conditions, ensuring visibility of road signs and license plates day or night.

5. Maintenance

To ensure optimal performance and longevity of your AZDOME M330 Dash Cam:

• SD Card Formatting: Reformat your SD card monthly using the dash cam's settings to prevent data corruption and ensure smooth recording.
• Cleaning: Gently wipe the lens and body of the dash cam with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents.
• Temperature: The dash cam is designed to operate in extreme weather conditions from -4°F to 158°F. However, prolonged exposure to direct sunlight in extremely hot conditions may affect performance.

6. Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your AZDOME M330 Dash Cam, refer to the following common problems and solutions:

• Dash Cam Not Powering On: Ensure the car charger is securely plugged into both the dash cam and the vehicle's cigarette lighter port. Check if the vehicle's power outlet is active.
• Recording Stops Unexpectedly: This can be caused by a full or corrupted SD card. Format the SD card regularly. Ensure you are using a Class 10 or U3 micro SD card.
• G-Sensor Too Sensitive/Not Sensitive Enough: Adjust the G-sensor sensitivity setting via the AZDOME app (Low, Medium, High) to match your driving conditions and preferences.
• WiFi Connectivity Issues: When connecting to the dash cam's WiFi, ensure your phone's cellular data is temporarily disabled. This prevents your phone from trying to use mobile data instead of the dash cam's WiFi.
• Video Quality Issues (Choppy Video): Ensure your SD card is of sufficient speed (Class 10 or U3). Reformatting the card can also help.
• Power Cable Length: The included 3.5m/12ft cable is designed to be long enough for most installations, allowing for discreet routing along the headliner and A-pillar. If a longer cable is required for your specific vehicle, third-party options may be available.
