2. Attach the suction cup mount to the dashcam.
3. Press the suction cup firmly against the windshield and engage the locking lever to secure it.

3. The dashcam will typically power on automatically when the vehicle's ignition is turned on.

6. Operating Instructions

6.1 Power On/Off

• Automatic: The dashcam will power on and begin recording automatically when connected to the car charger and the vehicle's ignition is turned on. It will power off automatically when the ignition is turned off.
• Manual: Press and hold the Power button to manually turn the device on or off.

6.2 Recording Modes

• Loop Recording: The dashcam continuously records video in short segments (e.g., 1, 3, or 5 minutes). When the MicroSD card is full, it automatically overwrites the oldest unlocked footage.
• G-Sensor (Collision Detection): In the event of a sudden impact or collision, the built-in G-sensor will automatically detect the event and lock the current video file, preventing it from being overwritten by loop recording.
• Motion Detection: When enabled, the dashcam will automatically start recording if it detects movement in front of the vehicle while parked. This feature requires a continuous power supply (e.g., hardwiring kit, not included) to function when the vehicle is off.
• Parking Monitor: Similar to motion detection, this feature can record short video clips if an impact is detected while the vehicle is parked.
