Other functions:

GPS coordinates view (optional)

- allows to display GPS position within the video. Location is display in the form of coordinates.

- allows to display current speed within the video, usable for future reference.

Video lock

- can be used to lock the video from subsequent overwriting by another video in the future. You can lock the videos

either in the recording mode or in the playback mode.

Important functions:

Motion detection

Automatically begins recording when the camera detects sufficient motion, for example, when reversiing. The

amount of motion needed to begin recording depends on the level of motion senstivity selected. Be careful when

selecting high sensitivity as this may quickly ll up the memory card.

Loop settings

Loop recording allows the car camera to continuously record regardless of the memory card capacity. You can

choose from four time intervals: Off / 2 min / 3 min / 5 min. The selected interval determines how long the camera

will record for and save. The advantage of this setup is that you will never run out of space on your memory card.

Moreover, it is much easier to send small les e.g. an E-mail for use as evidence.

Delay On / Off

This function is used to delay turning the camera on or off when the car engine is turned on or off. This can increase

the free space on the memnory card (when there is a switch on delay) or can provide a record of what happens

when you leave your car (when there is a switch off delay).

Precautions and notices

- For your own safety, do no use the camera’s controls while driving.

- A window mount is needed when using the recorder in a car. Make sure that you place the recorder in an appropriate place,

so as not to obstruct the driver’s view or deployment of airbags.

- Make sure that no object is blocking the camera lens and no reective material is placed near the lens. Please keep the lens

clean.

- If the car’s windshield is tinted or coated, it may impact the recording quality.

- The camera is primarily designed to operate while being constantly under power supply.

Safety precautions

- Charge the battery under continous supervision.

- Use only the charger supplied with your device. Use of another type of charger may result in malfunction and/or danger.

- Do not use the charger in high moister environment. Never touch the charger when your hands or feet are wet.

- Allow adequate ventilation around the charger when using it to operate the device or to charge the battery. Do not cover the

About GPS

- GPS is operated by the United States government, which is solely responsible for the performance of GPS. Any change to the

GPS system can affect the accuracy of all GPS equipment.

- GPS satellite signals cannot pass through solid materials (except glass). When you are inside a tunnel or a building, GPS

positioning is not available. Signal reception can be affected by situations such as bad weather or dense overhead obstacles

(e.g. trees, tunnels, viaducts and tall buildings).

- The GPS positioning data is for reference only.

Caring for your device
