Overheated Camera
Dash cams are electronic devices that contain various components, including a
processor, memory, camera lens, and other circuitry. When it's in use, it generates
heat due to the power consumption and operation of these components. The
heat generated during operation can cause the camera to heat up. Rest assured
that our dash cams are equipped with radiators and vents to dissipate heat, and
they operate within a temperature range of of -4°F (-20°C) to 149°F (65°C). The
dash cam can still work normally though it heats up. We recommend you turn on
the air conditioning to dispel the heat inside your car before using your camera.
Besides, we suggest parking your car in a location that allows for sufficient air and
protects your dash cam from direct sunlight or extreme temperatures.
1. First Use
Please read and understand warnings & safety instructions before operating.
(1) Insert memory card
To record videos, you need to insert a memory card, and complete the formatting
process. We recommend you use a Class 10 U3 or higher memory card of well-known
brands at a maximum of 256GB.
Kind reminder:
1) Please format the memory card on the computer and then in the camera’s
settings for better compatibility.
2) We recommend you format the memory card every two months for better
performance. Reformatting will erase all data on the SD card, so make sure you
have backed up all your important files before formatting.

all times since the internal battery is only for emergency recording during parking
mode.
Warm tips:
1) You can use your iPhone or Android phone’s USB charger to plug your dash cam
into a 110V power outlet.
2) If you don’t get the initial setup prompts for any reason, please reset your camera,
then restart it for the initial setup.
(3) Settings
By default, all settings are pre-set so that you can start using the camera right away
without any additional adjustments. However, you can customize it further by learning

cable inside your car. You can view one of the possible ways by visiting the link

card all the way in until you hear a click indicating that it has locked into place.

First, clean the area thoroughly with a microfiber cloth to remove any dust, dirt, or
oil that could affect the bracket's grip. Then, remove the film of the electrostatic
sticker and apply the electrostatic sticker to the windshield.

First, tear off one film of the bracket sticker and apply it to the bracket. Second,
remove another film from the bracket sticker. Lastly, stick the bracket to the
selected area on the windshield.
Note: Please make sure there is no air between the electrostatic sticker and the
windshield, which is the key point to make the installation more stable.

2) You can install the dash cam on the windshield without using the electrostatic
sticker. This allows you to effortlessly remove the camera by simply pushing the
GPS buckle towards left.

the installation area thoroughly before attaching the dash cam directly to the
windshield using the bracket sticker.

exposed to rain or direct sunlight. Please do not hesitate to contact customer
service for some free stickers.
