Note：
Disconnection between car charger and cigarette
lighter tends to occur due to different cigarette lighter
positions among different car models and the
vibration of the car during driving. This disconnection
may lead to abnormal power On/Off switching.
How to cope with it:：
1. Push the two grounding plates at the car
charger’s connector outward slightly, this
can help to firm the connection.
2. Use Velcro strips to fix the car charger on
the cigarette lighter.
In case of a cigarette lighter extension set is used to
supply power for multiple devices, please ensure it
has sufficient power and enough consumption
current for multiple devices connected to it.
Otherwise, it may lead to malfunctions for devices
connected to it e.g. Car Camcorder, navigators, and
mobile phone.
To solve such problem, connect the Car Camcorder
directly to the cigarette lighter or replace the
extension set with one w higher amp value.
