2.3 Front Camera Installation

1. Carefully remove the original mirror housing cover from your vehicle. Use the provided pry tool if necessary.
2. Transfer the orange buckles from the original car shell to the new dash cam shell. This ensures proper fitment.
3. Connect the dash cam's power cable to the vehicle's existing power source, typically located near the rearview mirror.

2.4 Rear Camera and Cable Routing

Route the rear camera cable discreetly along the A-pillar, then along the door frame, and finally to the rear of the vehicle. Use the pry tool to tuck the cable under trim panels for a clean installation. Install the rear camera in the desired location, typically on the rear windshield, ensuring a clear view.

3. Operating Instructions

3.1 Power On/Off

The dash cam is designed to automatically power on and off with your vehicle's engine, eliminating the need for manual operation each time you drive.

3.2 Loop Recording

The dash cam continuously records video in segments. When the memory card is full, it automatically overwrites the oldest unlocked footage with new content. This ensures continuous recording without manual deletion. The included 128GB memory card provides ample storage.

3.3 G-Sensor (Emergency Recording)

The built-in G-Sensor detects sudden collisions or impacts. Upon detection, it automatically saves the current video segment to a specified, protected folder, preventing it from being overwritten by loop recording. This ensures critical incident footage is secured.

3.4 Wi-Fi Connectivity and App Usage

Connect your smartphone to the dash cam's Wi-Fi network to access the FITCAMX APP. Through the app, you can view live footage, play back recorded videos, and download important clips directly to your phone. You can also adjust dash cam settings via the app. It is not necessary to keep Wi-Fi connected at all times, as the camera records automatically when the car starts. For optimal preview performance, turn off cellular data on your phone when connected to the dash cam's Wi-Fi.

3.5 Parking Mode (Optional Upgrade)

This dash cam does not include parking mode as a standard feature. If parking monitoring is desired, please consult Fitcamx for information on upgrading with a fuse box cable (search ASIN: B09PQ9KDYX for the fuse box cable).

4. Maintenance

• Cleaning: Regularly clean the camera lenses with a soft, lint-free cloth to ensure clear video quality. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
• Firmware Updates: Check the FITCAMX APP periodically for available firmware updates to ensure optimal performance and access to new features.
• SD Card Care: Format the memory card regularly (e.g., once a month) through the dash cam's settings or the app to maintain its performance and prevent data corruption. Replace the SD card if you notice recording issues or errors.

5. Troubleshooting

• Camera not turning on: Ensure the power cable is securely connected to both the dash cam and the vehicle's power source. Check the vehicle's ignition status.
• Wi-Fi connection issues: Ensure the dash cam's Wi-Fi is enabled. Try restarting both the dash cam and your phone. For optimal connection, disable cellular data on your phone when connecting to the dash cam's Wi-Fi.
• Video playback issues on phone: Ensure you have a stable Wi-Fi connection to the dash cam. If issues persist, try downloading the video clips to your phone before playback.
• Footage not saving/overwriting: Check if the memory card is full and needs formatting. Ensure the G-Sensor is not constantly triggering and locking all footage.
• Interference with other car systems: In rare cases, the dash cam might interfere with other vehicle electronics. If you experience issues with other systems after installation, disconnect the dash cam and contact technical support.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• Do I need to connect camera's WiFi every time?
  No. The dash cam will auto turn on/off, along with your car engine.
• Can I view video after off the car or remotely?
  No, only if you've downloaded footage to your phone in advance. The camera's WiFi is not remote, and video will be auto saved in MicroSD card (NOT PHONE).
• Can I use CarPlay/Bluetooth when driving?
  Yes. Your phone cannot be connected to CarPlay and dash cam WiFi at the same time, but the camera records automatically after car starts, so you don't need to keep WiFi connected to camera all the time.
