About the product

This product records videos while the vehicle is operating. Use this product only for reference when 
investigating incidents or road accidents. This product is not guaranteed to record and cloud service for 
ALL events. The device may not properly record accidents with small impacts that are too minor to activate 
the impact sensor or accidents with massive impacts that cause the vehicle’s battery voltage to deviate.

Video recording does not begin until the product is completely turned on (booted up). To ensure that all 
vehicle events are recorded, wait until the product is completely booted up after turning it on, and then 
begin operating the vehicle.

THINKWARE is not responsible for any loss caused by an accident, nor is it responsible for providing any 
support regarding the outcome of an accident.

Depending on the vehicle's configuration or operating conditions, such as the installation of remote door 
lock devices, ECU settings, or TPMS settings, some product features may not be supported, and different 
firmware versions may influence the product's performance or features.
