4. Operating Instructions
4.1 Automatic Recording
The Bestsee M22PRO Dash Cam is designed to begin recording automatically once your vehicle's engine is started and power is supplied to the dash cam. Recording will stop automatically when the engine is turned off.
4.2 G-Sensor Function
The built-in G-sensor detects sudden impacts or rapid deceleration. In the event of a collision or significant shake, the dash cam will automatically lock the current video file, preventing it from being overwritten by loop recording. These locked files are stored in a separate folder on the Micro-SD card.

4.3 Loop Recording
The dash cam records video in continuous loops (e.g., 1, 3, or 5-minute segments). When the Micro-SD card reaches its storage limit, the oldest unlocked video files will be automatically overwritten by new recordings. This ensures continuous recording without manual intervention.

4.4 Parking Monitor
When enabled and properly powered (requires a hardwire kit, sold separately), the parking monitor function allows the dash cam to continue surveillance even when the vehicle is parked and turned off. It can detect impacts or motion and automatically record footage to protect your vehicle.

5. Maintenance
5.1 Micro-SD Card Management
Regularly format the Micro-SD card (at least once a month) to ensure optimal performance and prevent data corruption. This can usually be done through the dash cam's settings menu. Replace the Micro-SD card if you notice any recording errors or performance degradation.
5.2 Cleaning
Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the dash cam's lenses and screen. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents that could damage the device. Ensure the windshield area where the dash cam is mounted is clean to maintain a clear view.
6. Troubleshooting
- Dash Cam not turning on: Ensure the power cable is securely connected to both the dash cam and the vehicle's power outlet. Check the vehicle's power outlet for functionality.
- Recording not starting: Verify that the Micro-SD card is inserted correctly and is not full. Format the Micro-SD card if necessary.
- Video footage is blurry or unclear: Clean the dash cam lenses and the windshield area. Ensure the protective film has been removed from the lenses.
- G-sensor is too sensitive/not sensitive enough: Adjust the G-sensor sensitivity setting in the dash cam's menu.
- Parking Monitor not working: Confirm that a hardwire kit is installed and correctly connected, as this feature requires continuous power.
- Dash Cam freezes or malfunctions: Try resetting the device (refer to the manual for specific reset instructions, if available). If the issue persists, try updating the firmware (check the manufacturer's website for updates).
