Insert the Memory Card

Install the front camera.

1. Please perform a desktop test before officially installing the dashcam to ensure all devices are working properly.
2. Find a suitable location on the windshield and clean the pre-installation area with a cloth.
3. Adjust the angle to record video with a better view.

Install the rear camera:

1. Use a cloth to clean the area on the rear windshield where the rear camera will be installed.
2. Peel off the static sticker and transfer it to the desired location.
3. Remove any air bubbles from the static sticker.
4. Peel off the adhesive backing of the rear camera and attach it to the static sticker.

Vehicle Cable Layout:

1. Connect the car charger to the cigarette lighter socket.
2. Connect the other end of the car charger to the dashcam.
3. Use a pry tool to route the power cable along the windshield and roof, then hide it under the A-pillar to avoid obstructing the driver’s view and causing hazards.
4. Connect the rear camera cable interface to the rear camera cable.
5. Hide the rear camera cable in the gap between the windshield and the roof, between the body and the roof on the passenger side, and between the rear seat and the roof.

• How to turn off the dashcam’s sound effects?
  • Go to Settings> Tap Sound Effects> Turn off.
  • When the sound effects are turned off, the power-on and off sounds will also be disabled.
  • Why does my dashcam occasionally show “Card Error” or “Please
• Format SD Card”?
  • Please follow these steps to check:
  • Go to Settings> Format Reminder, and check if the regular format reminder is enabled.
  • Format the SD card.
  • Perform a factory reset and restart the dashcam.
  • Update the firmware.
• Device keeps restarting/cannot start?
  • Make sure you are using the included charger/cable.
  • Remove the SD card, camera cable, and car charger, then reinstall them to check if the issue is caused by the accessories.
  • Reset the device using the button on the bottom of the dashcam.
  • lf the problem persists, connect the dashcam to a computer using a USB cable. If the device starts, the issue might be with the car charger cable. If it still doesn’t start after connection, the problem might be with the dashcam itself.
  • Go to the official website to update the firmware.
  • lf the issue is not resolved, contact customer service for a replacement.
• Why does the screen show “Mass Storage”?
  • “Mass Storage” appears when the dashcam enters transfer mode due to using a USB cable with data transfer capabilities. In this mode, only data transfer is available, and other functions do not work. For optimal performance, use the original car charger or a USB cable that does not support data transfer mode.
• Why can’t I connect to Wi-Fi?
  • Check the working range of the Wi-Fi, which is approximately 15 feet.
  • Verify the Wi-Fi SSID and password, or check if other devices are connected to the Wi-Fi.
  • Turn off mobile data, security software, and VPN on your phone.
  • lf the issue persists, contact customer support for assistance.
