REDTIGER F7N Pro 4K Dash Cam User Manual

Introduction and Overview

The REDTIGER F7N Pro is a high-performance dual dash camera system designed to enhance driving safety and provide comprehensive recording capabilities. It features a 4K (3840*2160P) UHD front camera and a 1080P FHD rear camera for simultaneous dual-channel recording, capturing critical details such as license plates and street signs.

Equipped with a STARVIS 2 image sensor and WDR/HDR technologies, the F7N Pro delivers superior night vision, ensuring clear and detailed images even in low-light conditions. Its wide F1.5+F1.8 aperture combination and 6-layer optical lens enhance light intake, improving clarity and color contrast. Built-in WiFi and GPS allow for seamless connectivity with the REDTIGER APP for wireless operation, video playback, download, and precise location/speed tracking.

The dash cam includes intelligent features such as loop recording, which automatically overwrites old footage, and a G-Sensor that locks and saves relevant footage upon detecting sudden collisions. It also supports 24-hour parking monitoring modes (G-Sensor and time-lapse) for continuous vehicle protection, requiring an optional hardware kit.

Maintenance

To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your REDTIGER F7N Pro Dash Cam, regular maintenance is recommended:

• Clean the Lenses: Periodically wipe the front and rear camera lenses with a soft, lint-free cloth to ensure clear video quality. Avoid abrasive materials that could scratch the lens.
• Format the Memory Card: It is recommended to format the included 64GB memory card (or any other compatible card up to 256GB) every 2-4 weeks. This helps maintain card health and prevents data corruption. Formatting can typically be done through the dash cam's settings menu.
• Check Cable Connections: Ensure all power and camera cables are securely connected and not pinched or damaged. Loose connections can lead to intermittent operation.
• Firmware Updates: Check the REDTIGER website or app periodically for firmware updates. Keeping your dash cam's firmware up-to-date can improve performance, add new features, and fix bugs.

• Dash Cam Not Powering On:
  • Ensure the car charger is properly plugged into the cigarette lighter socket and the vehicle's ignition is on.
  • Check the power cable for any visible damage or loose connections.
  • Try plugging the charger into a different power outlet in your vehicle, if available.
• Video Footage is Blurry/Unclear:
  • Clean the camera lenses with a soft cloth.
  • Ensure the protective film has been removed from the lenses.
  • Check if the windshield area where the camera is mounted is clean.
• Memory Card Error/Recording Issues:
  • Format the memory card through the dash cam's settings menu.
  • Ensure the memory card is a high-speed (Class 10 or U3 recommended) and genuine card.
  • If issues persist, try a different compatible memory card.
