Tips

is in recording mode, please stop recording and press [MODE];

you may need to do regular cleaning of memory card content
because long-term continuous recording will produce some

3
unwanted protected files (they will not be erased) and some
fragmentation. Regular cleaning is necessary to maintain a stable
and ample storage space.
3. Motion Detection (Movement Detection): It is not recommended
to enable this feature during normal driving. It may affect the
integrity of the video to start & stop recording repeatedly with the
feature is enabled.
4. Car Charger, Standard Voltage: Please use the car charger
with standard input voltage of 12V. If you find voltage exceeds 12V,
please contact your dealer or customer service immediately to
replace the car charger.
5. The features and menu options introduced in this manual cover
all product models and some may be only available in
optional/advanced models.
