3. Rear Camera Installation
The rear camera provides a second recording channel and backup camera functionality.
- Mount the rear camera at the back of your vehicle, typically near the license plate or inside the rear window, ensuring a clear view.
- Route the rear camera cable to the main dash cam unit. Use the provided installation tool to neatly tuck the cable along the vehicle's trim.
- Connect the rear camera cable to the designated port on the main dash cam unit.
4. Power Connection
Connect the provided car charger to your vehicle's 12V power outlet (cigarette lighter socket) and then to the dash cam unit. The device will typically power on automatically when the vehicle starts.
Operating Instructions

Dual Channel Recording
The M1 records simultaneously from both the front (1296p) and rear (720p) cameras, providing comprehensive coverage of your journey. The live feed from both cameras can be viewed on the 10-inch IPS touch screen.
Rear View and Backup Camera Functionality
The rear camera not only records the view behind your vehicle but also serves as a backup camera. When reversing, the live feed from the rear camera is displayed prominently on the large touch screen, assisting with parking and reducing blind spots.

Continuous Loop Recording
The M1 features continuous loop recording. When the MicroSD card reaches its storage limit, the system automatically overwrites the oldest recordings to make space for new footage. This ensures that the camera is always recording without manual intervention.
G-Sensor (Accident Auto-Detection)
The built-in G-Sensor detects sudden impacts or collisions. When an event is detected, the current video segment is automatically locked and saved to a protected folder on the MicroSD card, preventing it from being overwritten by loop recording.
Maintenance
- Cleaning: Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the dash cam screen and lenses. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents.
- MicroSD Card: Regularly format your MicroSD card (e.g., once a month) through the dash cam's settings menu to maintain optimal performance and prevent data corruption. Back up any important footage before formatting.
- Firmware Updates: Check the RexingUSA website periodically for any available firmware updates for your M1 dash cam. Follow the instructions provided with the update carefully.
