the oldest file in the memory card will be overwritten.
3.1.2 Emergency Recording
This Car Camcorder is equipped with a sensor that is designed to detect

“ Emergency” icon will be displayed if this feature is initiated as illustrated.
The Emergency Recording video will not be overwritten via the normal loop
recording function of this product.

Recording feature press the

function.
To stop the emergency recording

Note:
1. If the Collision Detection function is enabled and a collision is detected the camcorder will
automatically trigger the emergency recording feature.

avoid being overwritten by normal loop recording. The emergency video folder will occupy 40%
of available memory card capacity. For example if you use 8GB memory card about 3.2GB
memory space will be saved for emergency files. When the emergency video folder is full the
oldest emergency file will be automatically deleted by the newest emergency file.
