Important Functions Introduction
Please turn off this function while driving. With this function on, the device
will automatically record whenever it detects car vibration. Use of the
Parking Guard for long time periods will require a hardwired connection
for the dash cam, in order to connect it to the ACC and GND of the fuse
box safely and to provide the ongoing power required. Kits for this can be
purchased separately.
Parking Monitoring
If the headlights dim or are otherwise outside of normal parameters, the
camera will show a flashing icon and deliver an audible warning to alert
the driver to the anomaly.
Headlight Warning
In the recording state, the screen goes dark when there is no operation
after a while, though recording continues. The dash cam is working if the
blue indicator light is on.

When recording is interrupted:
1. The TF card may be full, please format it.
2. Please check if Parking Guard or Motion Detection is turned on. We
recommend turning these two functions off while driving, because they are
used for parking monitoring.
When the TF card is full after using it for a while:
Although the dash cam has the Loop Recording function, not all recorded
are automatically overwritten due to the G-sensor Protection function. Also
the videos recorded under the Motion Detection and Parking Guard will also
be locked. These locked videos will not be deleted automatically.
To save more memory space, we suggest to set the Loop Recording to 3
MINS and the Gravity Sensor to LOW.
When your 128 GB TF card cannot be read by the dash cam:
It must be formatted to a FAT32 64KB file system first on your computer.
Also format it on your computer or dash cam before use.
When the camera can't be turned on after being used for a
while:
1. Please confirm whether it is charged properly: Check if the indicator light
on the car charger is on when it is charging; Check if the car charger is
working properly and if the blue indicator light on the dash cam is on.
2. Remove the TF card and reset the camera. Connect the camera and
computer with the original USB cable to see if the camera can be
charged and turned on.

The front camera works but the system delay occurs when the
rear camera is connected, or the rear camera does not work:
1. Please check if the rear camera cable is working properly: Check if the
cable is properly placed or broken; Check if the charging port of the rear
camera is intact.
2. Please check if the TF card has been formatted to the correct file
system (FAT32).
Emergency recording prompt appears on the screen during
recording:
Pressing the UP button during recording will put the camera into an
emergency recording. The video recorded in this case will not be
automatically overwritten. You can manually lock a video in this way.
