Powering Down and Storage
• At the end of the day, when you no longer need to use the camera, it is best to place the camera
in “Charge Mode Only”. Do this by leaving the camera plugged into your provided “DC Charger
Cord” (if your port is “HOT” when your vehicle is off).

the “Power” button. The display will turn off in a few seconds. The camera is now charging only.
• To check the status of your battery while in this mode, simply press any of the buttons
momentarily and the large battery icon will display again. It will either be solid white (fully charged)
or alternating, white, red, green (charging).
• If it is still charging, do nothing and let it continue to charge.
• If it is solid white, press and hold the “Power” button until you hear a beep, and release the
“Power” button. The unit will exit charge mode and return to normal operating mode.
