USING YOUR CAMERA

Turning on and off
• Starting the engine will automatically turn on your camera
that is connected via the USB power adapter / port in your
vehicle.
• Your camera goes into Video mode and starts recording
immediately after it powers up. See "Video Mode" on page
10.
• Once you have reached your destination and the engine
stops, your camera will automatically save the recording
to the memory card and turn off after 10 seconds.
• Your camera can also be manually powered using its
built-in rechargeable battery. When your camera is not
connected to any power source, press the Power button to
turn it on. To manually turn the camera off, press and hold
the Power button for 2 seconds.
• Be sure to fully charge your camera first if you plan to
bring it out without the power supply. Your camera is
capable of recording up to approximately 15 minutes of HD
video on a fully charged battery.
Notes
• Before using your camera for the first time, be sure to set
the date and time. Go to Settings screen > Device tab >
Clock Settings. Having the correct date and time ensure
recorded events are properly time stamped for evidence.
