Using your dash cam in a vehicle
Note:
To ensure the highest quality recordings, you are advised to place the dash cam near the rear-view mirror.
Select an appropriate location for mounting the device in a vehicle. Never place the device where the driver’s field
of vision is blocked.
If the car’s windscreen is tinted with a reflective coating, it may be athermic and impact the GPS reception. In this
instance, please mount your device where there is a “clear area.”
The system will automatically calibrate the G sensor of the device during start-up. To avoid G sensor malfunction,
always turn the device on AFTER you mount it in the vehicle properly.
1. Make sure that your car is parked on level ground.
2. Follow the instructions below to securely mount your dash cam in a vehicle.
3. Connect the car charger to the cigarette lighter. Route the cables through the top ceiling and the A-pillar so that it does
not interfere with driving. Make sure that the cable installation does not interfere with the vehicles airbags or other safety
features.
