INSTALLATION OF YOUR DASHCAM

Install the front camera behind the rear view mirror. Clean and dry the windshield before installation.

Warning: Do not install the product in a location where it can obstruct the driver’s field of vision.

1. Turn off the engine. Gently push the card into the slot until it locks into place.
2. Peel off the plastic film from the front camera and the rear camera. Peel off the protective film from the double-sided tape and attach the front camera to the windshield behind the rear-viewer mirror.
3. Adjust the angle of the lens by rotating the body of the front camera. We recommend pointing the lens slightly downwards (=10* below horizontal), so as to record video with a 6:4 road to background ratio.
4. Plug the power cord into the cigarette lighter socket and the front camera.
5. Peel off the protective film from the rear camera mount, and attach the rear camera to the rear windshield where there is no defrost grid wire and where the camera can record the entire rear view. Connect the front camera (AV-IN) and the rear camera using the rear camera AV cable.
6. Turn on the engine. The dashcam will power up and start recording. Video files are stored on the microSD card. When the microSD card is full, the newest video files will start to replace the oldest video files (called loop recording) – so you will always have the most recent video files.

PLAY RECORDINGS

1. Remove the microSD card from the dashcam.
2. Use a USB microSD or SD card adapter and connect the card to a computer.
3. Download GPS player software (see page 9) and install it on your computer.
