This Dash Camera can only be used with Micro SD Cards, Class 10 or above with 32GB -
128GB storage capacity (this is not included and will need to be purchased separately).
Please format your Micro SD card before use.
NOTE:
Formatting the Micro SD card will delete all information on the inserted Micro SD Card and

Please download the NCP-VIEW app and connect your Dash Camera with the downloaded

NOTES ON INSTALLATION
1. For best results with the Drive Monitoring
System (DMS) we recommend that the Dash
Camera be installed near the driver side of
the windscreen perpendicular to eye level. If
DMS is not required, we recommend that the
Dash Camera be installed near the rear view
mirror, or at the top centre of the windscreen
for best results, making sure the internal
camera is not obscured by the mirror.
2. Make sure the lens is within the range of the windscreen wiper, so there is a clear line of
view when it rains.
3. Do not touch the lens. Fingerprints on the lens will result in unclear videos or photos. If
your photos or videos are blurred, this may be solved by cleaning the lens gently with a
microfibre cloth.
4. Please use only the included charging cable to power the Dash Camera. Other cables may
not work or may damage the camera.
