WHATS IN THE BOX
FEATURES AND OPERATION
Note: A memory card is required for operation
The NAVC-L07 requires a Micro SD card (not included) to record video / image content. (see
page 8 for a table showing SD card capacity and the relevant amount of video / image
content able to be stored). Foroptimal performance, we recommend using a Class 4 Micro
SD card (themost common type) to ensure fast data transfer rates.
Power on/off function (auto on/off)
To turn on the NAVC-L07, press the power button on the top of the device. To turn off,
press the same power button. When connected to the 12v DC socket (cigarette socket) of
yourcar, the NAVC-L07willturn on and offautomatically when thecar’s ignition is turned
on or off. If the NAVC-L07 does not turn off immediately it means the device is completing
the file save process before turning off (usually only a few seconds).
If the 12v socket is “constant on” (in some European vehicles), then the NAVC-L07 will need
to be turned on/off manually by the power button.
Auto Record when turned on
When the NAVC-L07 is turned on (either by pressing the power button or auto on) the
device will automatically begin recording. To stop recording, press the OK button or
disconnect the power cable.
Installation on the car windscreen
TheNAVC-L07works best when mounted centrally andhigh up onthe windscreen (typically
behind or close to the rear vision mirror). Use the supplied windscreen suction mount to
affix the NAVC-L07 to the windscreen and then adjust the mount until you can see a clear
view of the road ahead on the LCD.

Recording
Turn on the NAVC-L07. Recording should start automatically. If not press the “OK” button.
When recording, the green indicator LED will begin to flash. The recorded file is saved onto
the Micro SDHC Card. Stop recording by either pressing the OK button or turning the car
ignition off (stopping power to the device)
Changing between modes
Press and hold the MENU button for 5 seconds to change between modes. Each mode has a
unique icon at the top right of the screen.
MODE SETTINGS
To enter the SETTINGS for a selected mode, press the MENU button again momentarily.
Two titles will appear. The first will be named after the MODE which you have currently
selected (on the left) and the second SETUP (on the right)
Use the UP and DOWN arrows to navigate each option, the OK button to enter and confirm
and the MENU button to toggle across to the SETUP menu.
Press the MENU button a last time to exit the SETTINGS options and to return to the main
screen.
In the event of an incident / accident– STOP the Recording.
- Due to the “cycle recording” nature of this technology, older recorded files will be overwritten (depending on
the chosen resolution settings and the memory capacity of the Micro SD card). For example a 2GB SD card at
HD resolution will only offer you 20 minutes of record time before the files (2 or 5 or 15min sizes) start to get
overwritten
- Should you wish to KEEP the video footage of an incident from not being overwritten, stop the recording soon
after an incident has occurred (Either press“OK” or disconnect the power orremove theMicro SD card).
- Alternately use a larger capacity SD card or lower the recording resolution (eg; a 32GB SD card at VGA
resolution will offer you 640 minutes of record time) or otherwise use a second Micro SD card as a backup.

USB Connection
Connect the NAVC-L07 to a Windows PC with the USB cable (included). The LCD screen will
display a NOTEBOOK icon. Under “My computer” or “Windows Explorer” you should see a
drive which will resemble a “Removable Disk (?:)” (like a USB Flash drive orHard drive).
Recorded videos and photos are stored in theDCIM\100DSCIM folder, and the files are
named as PICT****. AVI for video, or PICT***.JPG for still images. These files can be played
back using Windows Media player or a compatible .avi media player or an image viewer (for
images)
Note:
1) A Micro SDHC card must be inserted into the device before recording.
2) The NAVC-L07 supports cycle recording. It will overwrite the oldest video files with new
ones. Depending on the size of the Micro SDHC card and the speed rating of the card, there
may be as much as a 3 second pause time whilst old files are overwritten with the newer
files. This pause time will not be recorded.
3) As theNAVC-L07 has a DC5Vinput, please use the original car charger which will step
down the car’s 12VDC to 5VDC and fuse the circuit in the event of an overload.

Connecting the NAVC-L07 in the Car
The above wiring diagram shows a left hand drive vehicle. Wiring path is only a
suggestion.
1. NAVC-L07 device mounted behind the rear vision mirror.
2. 12vDC cable routed behind rearvision mirror
3. Cable hidden behind roof headlining
4. Cable hidden behind “A” pillar– beware of airbag equipped cars
5. Cable is routed beside the dashboard / near the door hinges
6. Cable is passed under the passenger carpet (or under the dashboard)
7. 12v DC plug is connected to the car’s 12v “cigarette socket”.
Once the wiring and installation of the NAVC-L07 have been completed, please check the following:
- With the car’s ignition on (or engine started), the red LED indicator on the NAVC-L07 will light up and the LCD
screen should turn on. Recording should start automatically. This will indicate a successful installation –
- When the car’s ignition is turned off, the device should turn off within 20 seconds. If this doesn’t happen then
power is still being supplied to the car’s 12v socket and thedevice will need to be switched off manually.
