4. Operating Instructions
4.1 Automatic Recording and Loop Recording
The dash camera automatically powers on and begins recording when your vehicle starts. It utilizes loop recording, continuously recording video in segments. When the memory card is full, the oldest unprotected files are overwritten to make space for new recordings.
4.2 G-Sensor (Collision Detection)
The built-in G-Sensor detects sudden impacts or collisions. In the event of an accident, the current video segment is automatically locked and saved as an emergency file, preventing it from being overwritten by loop recording. This ensures critical evidence is preserved.

4.3 Parking Mode (Motion Detection)
When your vehicle is parked and the ignition is off, the parking mode activates. If the dashcam detects any motion or impact around the vehicle, it will automatically turn on and record a short, protected video segment. This feature provides surveillance against vandalism or theft even when you are away from your car.
4.4 Super Night Vision & IR Cabin Light
Equipped with an f/1.8 aperture, Wide Dynamic Range (WDR), and High Dynamic Range (HDR) technology, the dashcam delivers clear footage in low-light conditions. The interior camera includes IR lights to capture clear video inside the cabin, even in complete darkness.

4.5 Built-in WiFi & App Control
The dashcam features built-in 2.4GHz/5GHz WiFi, allowing wireless connection to a dedicated smartphone application. Through the app, you can view live footage, configure settings, browse recorded files, download videos, and share content directly from your phone.
4.6 GPS Functionality
The integrated GPS module accurately records your driving path, location, speed, and time. This data can be viewed and analyzed via the smartphone app or on a computer, providing detailed information about your journeys.

5. Maintenance
5.1 SD Card Management
- Formatting: Regularly format the Micro SD card (at least once a month) through the dashcam's settings menu to ensure optimal performance and prevent data corruption.
- Replacement: Replace the Micro SD card periodically (e.g., every 6-12 months) as continuous overwriting can degrade its lifespan. Use high-endurance cards designed for dashcams.
5.2 Cleaning the Lenses
Gently clean the front, interior, and rear camera lenses with a soft, lint-free cloth to ensure clear video quality. Avoid abrasive materials or harsh chemicals that could scratch the lenses.
