Operating Instructions

1. Basic Operation

• Automatic On/Off: The dash cam is designed to power on and off automatically with your vehicle's ignition.
• Loop Recording: The dash cam continuously records video in short segments (e.g., 1, 3, or 5 minutes). When the memory card is full, it automatically overwrites the oldest unlocked footage.
• G-Sensor (Emergency Lock): In the event of a sudden impact or collision, the built-in G-sensor will automatically detect the event and lock the current video segment, preventing it from being overwritten by loop recording. This footage is saved as important evidence.
• Manual Lock: You can manually lock the current recording by pressing the OK button during recording.
