3. Product Overview

The zhiroad Q26CT dash cam features a compact design with a front camera capable of 4K resolution and a rear camera for 1080P recording. It includes a display screen for real-time viewing and menu navigation.

4. Setup and Installation

Follow these steps to install your dash cam:

1. Insert SD Card: Ensure the included 64GB SD card is inserted correctly into the dash cam's memory card slot.
2. Mount the Front Camera: Attach the front dash cam to your car's windshield, preferably behind the rearview mirror, using the provided suction cup mount. Ensure it does not obstruct your view.
3. Connect Power: Use the car charger and charging cable to connect the dash cam to your car's cigarette lighter socket. Route the cable neatly along the windshield edge and dashboard using the crowbar circuit tool.
4. Install Rear Camera: Mount the rear camera on your rear windshield. Connect the rear camera cable to the main dash cam unit. Route this cable carefully to avoid interference.
5. Adjust Angle: Power on the dash cam and adjust the lens angles of both front and rear cameras to ensure optimal coverage of the road.

5. Operation

5.1 Automatic Recording

The dash cam will automatically power on and begin recording when your vehicle's engine starts. It will automatically save the footage and power off when the engine is turned off.

5.2 Loop Recording

The device records video in continuous loops (e.g., 1, 2, or 3-minute segments). When the memory card is full, the oldest unlocked video files will be automatically overwritten by new recordings. This ensures continuous recording without manual intervention.

5.3 G-Sensor (Emergency Recording)

The built-in G-Sensor detects sudden movements, impacts, or collisions. When triggered, it automatically locks the current video segment, preventing it from being overwritten by loop recording. This ensures critical footage is preserved as evidence. It is recommended to set the G-Sensor sensitivity to 'Low' during normal driving to avoid unnecessary locking of files due to minor bumps.

6. App Control and Wi-Fi Connectivity

The dash cam features built-in Wi-Fi, allowing you to connect it to your smartphone for easy control and footage management.

1. Download the App: Download the free "BOBO CAM" or "Viidure" app from the Apple App Store or Google Play Store.
2. Connect to Wi-Fi: Enable Wi-Fi on your dash cam and connect your smartphone to the dash cam's Wi-Fi network. (Note: The Wi-Fi has an effective maximum range of 5 meters and does not support remote connections.)
3. Manage Footage: Through the app, you can intuitively modify settings, easily control the dash cam, and view, download, or share your recorded moments.

7. Parking Monitoring

The 4K dash cam supports 24-hour parking monitoring to protect your vehicle even when parked. When the car is parked, the dash cam automatically detects vibrations and initiates recording and saving video clips. This allows you to review events that occurred while your vehicle was unattended.

Important: For 24-hour parking monitoring functionality, a separate Type-C hardwire kit is required (ASIN: B0DT697FZD). This kit is not included in the package and must be purchased separately.

8. Night Vision and WDR

The dash cam is equipped with advanced features to ensure clear recordings even in challenging lighting conditions:

• WDR (Wide Dynamic Range): WDR technology balances exposure, allowing the camera to capture more detail in both bright and dark areas of the scene simultaneously. This results in clearer images, especially in situations with strong contrasts like tunnels or bright headlights at night.
• F1.8 Large Aperture: The large F1.8 aperture lens allows more light to reach the sensor, significantly improving image brightness and clarity in low-light environments.
• 6-Layer Lens: A high-quality 6-layer lens minimizes distortion and maximizes light transmission, contributing to sharper and more accurate video capture.

9. Troubleshooting

If you encounter any issues with your zhiroad Q26CT dash cam, please refer to the following common solutions:

• Dash Cam Not Powering On: Ensure the car charger is properly connected to both the dash cam and the car's power outlet. Check if the car's power outlet is functioning.
• Recording Issues: Make sure the SD card is inserted correctly and is not full. Format the SD card regularly (at least once a month) to maintain optimal performance. Use a high-speed (Class 10 or U3) SD card.
• Poor Video Quality: Clean the camera lenses. Ensure the protective film is removed from the lenses. Adjust the camera angle to avoid glare.
• Wi-Fi Connection Problems: Ensure the dash cam's Wi-Fi is enabled. Keep your smartphone within 5 meters of the dash cam for a stable connection.
• G-Sensor Too Sensitive/Not Sensitive Enough: Adjust the G-Sensor sensitivity setting in the dash cam's menu.
