1.0 WELCOME TO NANOCAM
Thank you for purchasing a NanoCam Dash Camera. Our product has been designed to be
a valuable addition to your vehicle, certain to make your driving experience safer and more
enjoyable. Our products, like most after-market safety Dash Cameras, are innovations intended
to be used to compliment the driver experience but not to replace the actual, physical, manual
function of the person driving the vehicle.
Please read through these instructions before attempting to install this product.
Please regularly check our website for the latest manual and product updates at
www.nanocamplus.com.au or www.nanocamplus.co.nz
2.0 BEFORE USE  CAUTION
• Always use your Dash Camera within your countries’ current road laws.
• Dash Cameras with radio frequencies and unventilated spaces with direct sunlight can
damage the unit.
• It is normal for the Dash Camera to get warm during use.
• It is important to set the time and date before you use this Dash Camera.
• Dash Camera notifications are suggestions only, please drive to the actual conditions.
• This Dash Camera is for non-commercial use.
2.1 INFORMATION ABOUT THE BATTERY
•
The Dash Camera will only work in your vehicle when connected via the provided 12/24V

8
adaptor. This Dash Camera is fitted with a Super capacitor, which is similar to a battery but
functions differently. It has not been designed to be used as the camera’s built-in battery.
• Incorrect charging can damage the internal battery and will consequentially void the warranty.
• Never dismantle, expose, or manually replace the internal battery.
• Do not dispose of the Dash Camera in fire.
• Dispose of the Dash Camera observing local regulations and with the environment in mind.
2.2 NOTES ON INSTALLATION
To get the best results from your Dash Camera, please be aware:
• The Dash Camera should be installed near the rear-view mirror, top centre of the
windshield.
• Ensure the lens is within range of the windscreen wiper so it is not obstructed by rain.
• Fingerprints on the lens can result in unclear videos or photos and should be cleaned
with a microfibre cloth.
• Do not install the Dash Camera on a tinted window. It can damage the tint film and
reduce the quality of the Dash Camera's recordings.
• Clean the windscreen thoroughly before affixing the mount to maintain the adhesive.
• To position the Dash Camera accurately, we suggest you power-on the Dash Camera
and test the playback image on screen first, prior to removing the mount's 3M tape.
This way you can easily relocate the unit until you have found the optimal spot.

5.0 GETTING STARTED
Before you start, the Dash Camera will need a Micro SD card installed.
The Dash Camera will also need to be installed into your vehicle and connected to your power
source to operate.
5.1 SETTING UP THE MICRO SD CARD IN YOUR DASH CAMERA
A Micro SD card will be required, class 10 or higher (you will need to purchase separately)
• The Micro SD card will need to formatted before use (see instructions on page 34).
• Insert the Micro SD card only when the Dash Camera is powered OFF.
To insert the Micro SD card properly:
• Turn off the Dash Camera and point the screen towards you.
• Insert the Micro SD card into the slot on the left-hand side of the Dash Camera. Push
the Micro SD card in until a slight click is heard, and it feels secure.
In order to remove the Micro SD card:
• Turn off the Dash Camera and push the Micro SD card in, until a click is heard.
This indicates the Micro SD card has been released and can be pulled out with your fingers.
5.2 INSTALLING YOUR DASH CAMERA
• Clean the inside of your windscreen and select a place to mount your Dash Camera.
• Remove the protective stickers from the Dash Camera and the 3M mount.

12
• Press the mount base firmly against the windscreen and hold for 30 seconds.
• Insert the power cable adaptor into the Dash Camera power socket.
NOTE:
• It is recommended that the Dash Camera is installed behind your vehicle’s rear-view
mirror.
• Please ensure the camera view is not obstructed by any window tint or any other objects.
5.3 ADJUSTING THE CAMERA POSITION
• Loosen the knob and adjust the Dash Camera vertically and/or horizontally.
• Tighten the knob to make sure the Dash Camera is securely locked in place.

13
5.4 INSTALLING THE REAR CAMERA
• Clean the inside of your rear window and select a place to mount your rear camera.
• Remove the protective film from the rear camera base bracket.
• Select either the top or the bottom of the rear window to position the rear camera and
press down on the base of the bracket by hand for 30 seconds to ensure that the sticker
adhesive has attached to the car window.
Connect the rear camera to the Dash Camera using the cable provided. Either run the cable
through the roof lining or under the carpet underlay as shown on page 14. The rear camera
can rotate 360° degrees depending on the position and type of installation method required.
Method 1: Thread the rear camera cable along the top of the roof lining and connect it to the
Dash Camera.
Method 2: Lift up the car carpet and run the rear camera cable along the underlay of the
carpet and connect it to the Dash Camera. Adjust the camera by rotating the barrel until it

5.5 CONNECTING TO POWER

• Once the Dash Camera is securely installed on your vehicle’s windscreen, plug the
12/24V power adaptor into your vehicle’s cigarette lighter.
• Run the cable along your vehicle’s console and windscreen and plug the USB Micro plug
into the Dash Camera. (See image on page 12).
6.0 POWERING THE DASH CAMERA ON / OFF
6.1 AUTO POWER ON/OFF
When the Dash Camera is correctly installed and connected to your vehicle’s 12/24V power
supply, the Dash Camera will automatically power up and start recording when the vehicle
accessories are activated.
6.2 MANUAL POWER ON
Hold the Power Button on the side of the Dash Camera until the NanoCam Plus start-up
screen appears.

16
6.3 POWER OFF
Ensure the Dash Camera has stopped recording and press the Power Button. Wait 10

8.0 PLAYING BACK VIDEO ON A COMPUTER OR LAPTOP PC
To playback video files on your PC, remove the Micro SD from the Dash Camera and connect it
directly to your PC using a USB Micro SD card reader, a built-in card reading slot or a Micro SD/SD
card converter (also not included).
Once the Micro SD card is connected, a folder named ‘removable storage Dash Camera,’ should
appear. By transferring and saving files onto your computer, often playback of your recordings is
quicker and smoother.
9.0 INFORMATION ON YOUR DASH CAMERA SETTINGS
Before using the Dash Camera, it is critical that you insert and format your Micro SD card and
set the Time and Date via the Dash Camera’s settings (instructions to do this are on page 29/30).
FUNCTION, MODE AND USAGE NOTES:
• Menu options can not be used while the camera is recording, so please cancel recording
first.
• The Time and Date will be stamped onto your footage using the Date Stamp setting.

17
• When the Dash Camera is connected (via the supplied adaptor) to your vehicle’s 12/24V
power supply, it will automatically power on and begin recording.
• At first, the Dash Camera functions will be unresponsive and will take a moment to start
recording. Please note, when your vehicle is off, the Dash Camera will also stop recording.
• Because of how some vehicles are wired, recording may continue when the engine is off.
You can remove the power adaptor or manually turn off the Dash Camera to avoid this.
9.1 THE MODE BUTTON:
The Mode Button is on the right-hand side of the Dash Camera and is marked with an "M".
• The Mode Button is used to switch the Dash Camera function from Video to Camera
mode, which can take still photos.
10.0 TAKING STILL PHOTOS

settings by following these steps:

11.0 LOCKED RECORDING
Locked Recording saves the current video file and protects it from being overwritten. To
manually create a Locked Recording follow the instructions below.
• During recording push the Button.
NOTE:
• If the G Sensor function is enabled and a collision is detected, the Dash Camera will
automatically trigger the Emergency Recording and lock the current video file. Please
refer to the section titled G Sensor to learn more.

overwritten by normal Loop Recording. If the inserted Micro SD card becomes full with
Emergency Recording files, the message “SD Card Full” will appear on the screen and the
oldest emergency file will be automatically deleted to make room for a new recording.
• If your Micro SD card becomes full of Emergency Recordings that you wish to keep, please
save them to your PC for future reference.
