2.4 Connecting Power

The AZDOME M01 Pro comes with a Mini USB OBD Hardwire Kit for continuous power and parking mode functionality.

2. Plug the OBD connector of the hardwire kit into the vehicle's OBD-II port.
3. Connect the Mini USB end of the hardwire kit to the main dash cam unit.
4. Route the power cable discreetly, similar to the rear camera cable, to avoid obstructing your view or interfering with driving.

3. Operating Instructions

3.1 Powering On/Off

The dash cam will automatically power on and begin recording when your vehicle's ignition is turned on (if connected via OBD hardwire kit). It will power off automatically when the ignition is turned off.

3.2 Basic Controls

The dash cam features a 3-inch 2.5D curved IPS screen and intuitive buttons for navigation and control. Refer to the on-screen interface for specific menu options.

3.3 Loop Recording

The dash cam continuously records video in short segments (e.g., 1, 3, or 5 minutes). When the SD card is full, the oldest unlocked video files will be automatically overwritten by new recordings. This ensures continuous recording without manual intervention.

3.4 G-Sensor & Emergency Lock

The built-in G-sensor detects sudden movements or impacts (e.g., collisions). When an event is detected, the current video segment is automatically locked and saved to a protected folder, preventing it from being overwritten by loop recording.

3.5 24H Parking Mode

With the Mini USB OBD Hardwire Kit, the dash cam supports 24-hour parking monitoring. There are two primary modes:

• Collision Detection Parking Mode: The G-sensor detects impacts while parked and records a short video segment.
• Time-lapse Parking Mode: The dash cam records continuously at a low frame rate (e.g., 1fps) for 24 hours, compressing long periods into short videos.

3.6 ADAS (Advanced Driver-Assistance Systems)

The M01 Pro features ADAS functions, including a Lane Departure Warning System and Forward Collision Warning. These systems provide timely alerts to help reduce the risk of driving accidents.

3.7 Dual Recording & Reverse View

The dash cam records simultaneously from both the front (Full HD 1080P, 150° wide-angle) and rear (120° wide-angle) cameras. The display can show both views, and when reversing, it can provide a reverse view with parking guidelines.

3.8 Super Night Vision

Equipped with a Starvis Sensor and F2.0 large aperture, the dash cam provides enhanced night vision capabilities, capturing clear footage even in low-light conditions.

4. Maintenance

4.1 SD Card Management

Regularly format your SD card (at least once a month) to maintain optimal performance and prevent data corruption. Back up any important video files before formatting.

4.2 Cleaning

Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the dash cam lenses and screen. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents that could damage the device.

5. Troubleshooting

• Dash Cam Not Powering On: Ensure the OBD hardwire kit is correctly installed and receiving power from the vehicle. Check the Mini USB connection to the dash cam.
• Recording Issues: Verify the SD card is properly inserted and not full. Format the SD card if necessary. Ensure loop recording is enabled.
• Poor Video Quality: Clean the camera lenses. Check the resolution settings in the menu. Ensure the protective film has been removed from the lenses.
• Rear Camera Not Displaying: Check the cable connection between the front and rear cameras. Ensure the rear camera is properly installed.
• Parking Mode Not Working: Confirm the OBD hardwire kit is correctly installed and providing continuous power. Check parking mode settings in the menu.
