Position it to ensure a clear view of the road without obstructing your driving vision. The camera's angle can be adjusted for optimal recording.
3. Install the Rear Camera
Mount the rear camera on your rear windshield using an electrostatic sticker and adhesive. Connect the rear camera to the main dash cam using the provided long cable. Route the cable discreetly along the headliner and A-pillar, using the included crowbar and wire clips to tuck it away.
4. Power Connection

The dash cam will automatically power on and begin recording when your vehicle starts. It will stop recording when power is disconnected.
