BASIC OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
1. SD cards can be made by several different ways using different memory types and formatting types. In general, two types are
commonly found, MLC and TLC. TLC type cards are generally used in phones or other equipment that does mostly reading only, such as
playing back ground music. MLC type cards are designed for devices that read and write often such as DVR’s or video cameras. TLC type
memory will often fail more often under heavy recording of this type.
2. We only recommend brand name, high quality SD (or TF) cards using MLC technology for this HD DVR mirror. Also only use cards
with a 2K or higher (4k) recording speed. Using lower quality memory or incorrect speed memory will affect the recording quality and may
cause system errors.
3. Most SD Cards have a working life of about 2 years. Heat, amount of recording time, and overall usage, as well as the quality of the
card may vary as will the life of the card. Memory cards do need to be re-formatted from time to time and should be replaced at least once
per year to insure your DVR performing as expected. Remember your DVR is always recording when it is on, this is not the same as a
normal camera that only records when a picture is taken. We suggest using a 32GB MLC type SD memory card with a minimum speed of
90mb/s for the best recording quality and reliability.
4. This DVR uses new technology and relies heavily on the SD Card memory. If the mirror or SD card fail to operate correctly and fail
to record an incident, the manufacturer or re-seller cannot be held responsible. We recommend you check your SD card regularly to insure
the system is operating correctly. This device is designed for entertainment purposes only and you should check all local laws that may
relate to using such a device in your vehicle. Always use carefully when driving as safety is always the drivers first responsibility.

Auto-dimming (optional)
the light sensor from the back of
mirror detects the ambient light
front light sensor detects the light
from rearward-approaching vehicles.
The auto dimming of our mirror works automatically when you start the engine, and the indicator will light up . The light
sensor in the back of the rearview mirror will always detect the ambient light. The auto-dimming doesn't work in the
broad day for the adequate daylight. However, when night falls and the ambient light is weak, the auto-dimming starts
to work and automatically dims to eliminate the glare of rearward-approaching vehicles. Furthermore, the degree of
brightness of the auto-dimming glass depends on the level of the light. The stronger the light from the back of the car
is, the darker the glass is. Hence it protects drivers from becoming dizzy and avoiding car accident. Not recording / Showing
