Installation

Suction Cup Mount

Position the suction cup mount on the windscreen of your vehicle and push down the locking tab to fix it securely in place.
Adjust the best angle for your dash camera’s lens and tighten the knob to fix the position.
It is recommended to place the dash camera behind the rear vision mirror to prevent the camera from obstructing your view while driving.

Power

Insert the car cigarette lighter charger cable into the cigarette socket of your vehicle.
Plug the USB end of the car charger into the USB power socket located on the top of the dash camera.
The dash camera will automatically turn on and start recording once the car has been started by default. You may also wish to run the power cable along the top of the windscreen so that the cable isn’t hanging down directly in the middle of your windscreen.

MicroSD

Before initial use, insert a microSD card into the microSD card slot located at the bottom of the dash camera.
You will hear a clicking sound once the microSD card has been inserted correctly.
The suggested microSD card is 8-32GB Class 10.
