3. Remove Protective Films: Carefully peel off any protective films from the camera lenses and the display screen.
4. Insert SD Card: The 64GB SD card is typically pre-installed. If not, insert it into the designated slot on the main unit.

3.2 Mounting the Main Dash Cam Unit

1. Attach Mount: Secure the mounting bracket (suction cup or adhesive base) to the electrostatic film on your windshield. Ensure it is firmly attached and does not obstruct your view.
2. Attach Dash Cam: Slide the main dash cam unit onto the mounting bracket until it clicks securely into place.
3. Adjust Angle: Adjust the main camera's angle to capture the desired forward view. The side cameras can be rotated independently to cover the left and right sides of the vehicle interior or exterior.

3.3 Connecting Power and Rear Camera

1. Connect Power: Plug the car power adapter into your vehicle's 12V cigarette lighter socket. Connect the other end to the "POWER" port on the main dash cam unit.
2. Route Power Cable: Use the provided pry tool and cable clips to neatly route the power cable along the windshield trim and dashboard to minimize clutter and ensure it does not interfere with driving.
3. Install Rear Camera: Mount the external rear camera at the back of your vehicle, ensuring a clear view. Connect its cable to the "REAR" port on the main dash cam unit. Route this cable discreetly along the vehicle's interior.
4. Connect GPS Module: Plug the GPS module into the "GPS" port on the main dash cam unit. Mount the GPS module on the windshield or dashboard in a location with a clear view of the sky for optimal signal reception.

5. Maintenance

6. Troubleshooting

  • Ensure the car power adapter is securely plugged into both the vehicle's cigarette lighter and the dash cam's power port.
  • Check if the vehicle's 12V socket is receiving power (test with another device).

  • Format the SD card. If issues persist, try a new high-speed (Class 10 or U3) SD card.
  • Ensure loop recording is enabled and configured correctly.
• Poor Video Quality:
  • Clean the camera lenses.
