3. Kurulum Talimatları

The GKU Type-C Step-Down Cable requires hardwiring to your vehicle's fuse box. Professional installation is recommended if you are unfamiliar with automotive electrical systems.

3.1 Güvenlik Önlemleri

• Elektrik kısa devrelerini önlemek için montaja başlamadan önce aracın negatif akü kutbunu ayırın.
• Tüm bağlantıların güvenli ve düzgün bir şekilde yalıtıldığından emin olun.
• Consult your vehicle's owner's manual for fuse box location and fuse diagrams.
• Use appropriate fuse taps and fuses for your vehicle and dash camera's power requirements.

3.2 Kablolama Şeması ve Bağlantılar

1. Kırmızı Kablo (ACC): Connect this wire to a fuse in your vehicle's fuse box that is only powered when the ignition is on (e.g., radio, cigarette lighter). Use a fuse tap for this connection.
2. Yellow Wire (B+ / Constant Power): Connect this wire to a fuse in your vehicle's fuse box that provides constant power, even when the ignition is off (e.g., hazard lights, interior lights). Use a fuse tap for this connection.
3. Siyah Kablo (Topraklama): Securely connect this wire to a metal part of the vehicle's chassis that is unpainted, serving as a ground point.
4. C Tipi Konnektör: Plug the Type-C connector from the step-down cable into the Type-C power input port of your compatible dash camera.

3.3 Kurulum Sonrası Kontrol

• Aracın negatif akü terminalini tekrar bağlayın.
• Start the vehicle and ensure the dash camera powers on correctly.
• Turn off the vehicle's ignition and remove the key. Verify that the dash camera switches to parking monitoring mode (if supported and configured).
• Check that the dash camera powers off completely after a set time or when the low voltage protection activates, preventing battery drain.

4. Kullanım Talimatları

This cable primarily manages power delivery to your dash camera. The specific operation of parking monitoring features will depend on your dash camera model.

4.1 Automatic Power Management

• When the vehicle's ignition is off, the cable continues to supply power from the constant power line, enabling parking monitoring modes.
• The built-in low voltage protection will automatically cut power to the dash camera if the vehicle's battery voltage drops below a safe threshold (e.g., 11.6V for 12V systems) to protect the battery from complete discharge.

4.2 Park Etme İzleme Modları

Refer to your dash camera's user manual for detailed instructions on configuring and using its parking monitoring features (e.g., G-sensor sensitivity, time-lapse recording settings).

5. Bakım
