4. Operating Instructions

4.1 Powering On/Off

• The dash cam will automatically power on and begin recording when connected to your vehicle's power supply and the engine starts.
• It will automatically power off when the vehicle's engine is turned off and power supply is disconnected.

4.2 Recording Modes

• Loop Recording: The dash cam continuously records video in segments (e.g., 1, 3, or 5 minutes). When the memory card is full, it automatically overwrites the oldest unlocked footage.
• G-Sensor (Emergency Recording): In the event of a sudden impact or collision, the built-in G-sensor will detect the event and automatically lock the current video segment, preventing it from being overwritten by loop recording.
• 24/7 Parking Mode: With an optional hardwire kit (not included), the dash cam can monitor your vehicle even when parked. It uses motion detection to automatically record incidents and features low-voltage protection to prevent draining your car's battery.
