Precautions for use - SD Card
1. Please regularly maintain the SD card as it is consumable*, and its
service life will be shortened with continued recording. However, using the
card with regular formatting may extend its service life. Before formatting,
make sure to back up important image files. If the SD card is not
recognized, please replace (purchase) it with a new one.
(*consumable : The SD card has a six-month warranty provided by the

exposed to moisture, dust, or high heat as these may lead to a deformed or
malfunctioning SD card.
5. Please back up and store important data in a separate storage medium
(HDD, CD, etc.) if it is needed to be stored for a long time.
SMART HJC 10A 6
Precautions for use - GPS
1. The GPS system is affected by weather, satellite conditions, and the
surrounding geography. Because the GPS functions through the
communicationof the product’sreceiving antenna and dedicated artificial
satellites, various weather conditions (cloudy/rainy/snowy weather, etc.) or
changes in the surrounding geography (around tall buildings, under land
bridges, in tunnels/underpasses/parkinglots, or around other
interferences) may make thereception unstable.
2. TheGPS signal reception does not affect video recording. When the GPS
signal is lost, only the location coordinates and the driving speed will not be
recorded.
3. GPS connection may be slow on the first use after purchase or a long
period of no use, taking 5 to 30 min at most to check the satellite location
andreceive GPS signals.
4. In the hot summer or cold winter, GPS reception may become unstable or
takea longer time.
* What is GPS?
GPS is astate-of-the-art satellite navigation system that measures accurate
time and distance through three or more dedicated satellites above the earth.
Moreover, the current location is calculated through triangulation. Through GPS
technology, the product records vehicle location and driving speed at the time of
video recording and provides additional situational information on the recorded
videos.In addition, it also hasa function that enables theviewingof the driving
route on an Internet map service interface with the stored locational information.
