Before using this card, please follow the steps below to format it properly:
If the camera is recording, please press the icon to pause the
recording, then press the icon to enter the menu, then enter “System”,
select the" Format SD Card " , and confirm to format the memory card
until it prompts "Formatted successfully."
3. Installation
3.1 Installing a Memory Card (Recommended: Vantrue U3 high-speed micro
SD card).
Please insert a memory card (memory card capacity: 32GB-512GB, card
speed: U3/Class10/A2). The dashcam has certain requirements on the
card speed of the memory card. For reliable operation, we recommend
using a VANTRUE SD card(sold separately).
Memory Card Installation: There is an icon indicating the insertion
direction of the memory card. Please push the memory card into the
card slot according to the direction indicated by this icon, until a "click"
sound is heard in the card slot, indicating that the memory card is
inserted properly.

We recommend formatting the card once a month to ensure normal
operation of the dash cam.
Do not remove or insert the memory card during recording to avoid
losing important videos.
Please do not use bad cards or low-speed cards on the dash cam, as
it is easy to stop or lose the recording due to a failure of the memory
card.
Before formatting the memory card, please check the emergency
video folder in the SD card to see if there are any videos that need to
be saved separately, so as not to delete important videos by mistake.
REMINDER:

After inserting the memory card, if the screen prompts "Card error, please
format" (please note that the recorder does not record at this time),
please directly press the button to enter the menu and start the
formatting process.
