G-sensor sensitivity
This function activates in the case of a car accident by determining the gravitational acceleration (1g = 9.8 meters/second^2). When this function activates the Dash Cam will automatically save a 1 minute video file and save it to the Event folder on the SD card. We recommend Low Sensitivity to avoid false triggers.
Note: With this function turned on it may fill up the SD card with locked video files. Re-format the SD card to create space. The device does NOT guarantee video recording of all accidents as built-in impact sensor may not be activated due to combination of user settings and the level of impact during the collision.
Reversing guide lines
When triggered, the reversing guide lines only assist a driver with backing into a parking space or aligning with an object behind the vehicle. They do not measure distance. You should always get out of the vehicle and visually check the distance to aid the driver when using guide lines.
Formatting SD card
It is advisable to format the SD card when you first use the Mirror Monitor and also regularly if you have the setting G-sensor function on or create Locked files. This will fill up the card causing it to stop recording any footage. 64-128GB Micro SD cards need to be formatted in the Mirror Monitor to be recognised.
