Let’s Get Started
Step 1: Power on the Device
- Insert the provided memory card into the dashcam.
- Connect the charger to your vehicle’s 12V DC outlet and plug it into the dashcam. The dashcam should power on automatically and begin recording.
- Format the memory card to ensure compatibility and optimal performance.
- Connect each of the additional cameras to the dashcam to ensure they are working properly.
Please stop recording and power off the device before removing or inserting the memory card.- Use only the provided charger. Sprleaf is not responsible for any damage caused by unauthorized chargers.
- We recommend reformatting the memory card each time files are transferred to a computer, or at least once a month. Regular reformatting helps prevent errors and missing files, maintains a clean file structure, and reduces the risk of corruption.
Step 2: Install the Rear and Side Cameras
- After confirming that all cameras are functional, install the rear and side cameras first, checking their positioning by viewing the camera feed on the dashcam’s screen to ensure optimal alignment.
- Mount the rear camera as shown in the illustration. Use the provided tool to neatly secure and hide the cable along the interior trim.
- The rear camera can be mounted either on the upper interior of the rear windshield or on the exterior above the license plate.
- Mount each side camera as shown in the illustration. Adjust it to your preferred viewing angle and hide the cables along the interior trim.
- When routing the cable through the car door, avoid running it in a direct or diagonal line—this may cause the cable to be pinched over time. Instead, run the cable upward or downward for a short distance before passing it through the door seam to ensure long-term reliability.
- To enable parking assist, locate the reverse light wires near the rear lights or trunk. Use a circuit tester to identify the correct wire and connect the rear camera’s red wire to it. This will allow the rear camera to activate automatically when you shift into reverse, displaying parking assist lines on the screen to guide you.
- Next, adjust the rear camera’s angle as needed for a clear view. Secure any loose cables using cable ties to keep everything tidy and out of the way.
