Reset The Dash Cam
You can reset your device if it stops functioning.
Use a pin stick in the reset hole under the micro usb port.
Installation
To install your dash cam with a 12V power supply (cigarette lighter):
1. Using the 4m power cable provided, guide the cable around your
windscreen.
2. Tuck the cable neatly across the top of the windscreen and down the side to
keep the cable out of eyesight and tidier. In virtually all vehicles there is a
small gap between the roof lining and the windscreen, the Caidrox power
cable has been designed to push neatly into this gap.
3. Place the suction cup onto the windscreen, for most vehicles this will be just
behind the rear view mirror on the passenger side. If you have a black
“spotted” area on the windscreen please make sure that the mount is not
touching this. This location captures the best view of the road and the dash
cam remains safe and out of the line of sight.
