4.1 Powering On/Off

• Automatic: The dash cam will automatically power on and begin recording when your vehicle's ignition is turned on (if connected to a switched power source).
• Manual: Press and hold the power button to manually turn the dash cam on or off.

4.2 Recording Modes

• Continuous Loop Recording: The dash cam records video in segments (e.g., 1, 3, or 5 minutes). When the memory card is full, the oldest unlocked files are automatically overwritten to make space for new recordings. This ensures continuous recording without manual intervention.

• G-Sensor (Emergency Recording): The built-in G-sensor detects sudden impacts or collisions. When triggered, the current video segment is automatically locked and saved to a protected folder, preventing it from being overwritten by loop recording.
