2. Camera Mounting and Wiring
Proper placement and secure wiring are essential for optimal performance and safety.

- Rear Camera: Mount the rear camera on your rear windshield. The rear camera can be rotated 360° for optimal positioning.
- Wiring: Use the provided Type-C USB power cable and car charger to power the front camera. Route the cable neatly along the windshield and dashboard edges using the included cable clips and pry tool to conceal it. Connect the rear camera to the front camera using its dedicated cable.

Operating Instructions
1. Power On/Off and Recording
The dash camera automatically powers on and begins recording when your vehicle's ignition is turned on. It will power off automatically when the ignition is turned off.
- Loop Recording: The camera continuously records video in segments. When the SD card is full, the oldest unlocked video files will be automatically overwritten by new recordings. A 64GB card provides approximately 4 hours of recording, while a 128GB card provides about 8 hours.
