Setup & Installation
Follow these steps to properly install your Avylet Dash Cam in your vehicle.
Installation Steps
- Clean Windshield: Thoroughly clean the area on your windshield where the dash cam will be mounted.
- Apply Electrostatic Film: Apply the provided electrostatic film to the cleaned area on the front windshield. This helps in easy removal and prevents residue.
- Attach Front Camera: Remove the protective film from the adhesive on the suction cup mount. Attach the front dash cam to the electrostatic film on the windshield. Ensure it is securely fixed and adjust the angle for optimal road view. The mount allows for a 270° rotation angle.
- Install Rear Camera: Remove the protective film from the adhesive on the rear camera mount. Install the rear camera on the rear windshield. The lens is 360° rotatable for flexible positioning.
- Route Cables: Use the trim removal tool to route the power cable and rear camera cable along the edges of your windshield and interior trim. Hide any excess cables in the gaps for a neat installation.
- Connect Power: Plug the car charger into your vehicle's cigarette lighter socket. Connect the USB-C power cable from the car charger to the main dash cam unit. The rear camera cable connects to the AV-IN port on the main dash cam.
- Adjust Camera Angle: Start your car. The dash cam will power on automatically. Adjust the front camera's angle to ensure it captures the desired view of the road.

ADAS (Advanced Driver-Assistance System)
The ADAS system provides alerts to enhance driving safety. These features include:
- Lane Departure Warning.
- Forward Collision Warning.
- Front Vehicle Start Alert.
- Pedestrian Collision Warning.
Important: ADAS features require an external GPS module (not included) and calibration for optimal performance. These features are not available in 4K front camera mode; switch to 2.5K+1080P resolution to enable them.

24/7 Parking Monitor
To enable 24/7 parking monitoring, an optional hardwire kit (sold separately, ASIN: B0FJLV1YJ9) is required. Once installed, the dash cam will automatically enter Parking Mode when the engine is off. You can choose between:
- Motion Detection Mode: Records a 30-second clip when movement is detected within the camera's field of view.
- Time-Lapse Mode: Continuously records frames at set intervals (1, 2, 5, or 10 frames per second) and compiles them into a fast-forward video.

Loop Recording & G-Sensor
- Loop Recording: The dash cam records continuously. When the memory card is full, it automatically overwrites the oldest unlocked footage.
- G-Sensor: In the event of a sudden impact or collision, the built-in G-sensor detects the event and automatically locks the current video segment, preventing it from being overwritten.
