BT532871 and BT532872

How can I connect the dashcam to the TYPE S Drive App?

Go to your phone's WiFi Settings, connect to "Type S DVR..."
Go into your TYPE S Drive App, select "Dashcams", and you should be good to go!

What power source does the camera use?

The easiest way to connect your camera is via the 12/24V cigarette lighter port in your vehicle. However,
you may also hardwire it to your fuse box or directly to your battery. TYPE S hardwiring kit (AC533513)
sold separately.
We recommend using the cables that came with the package. Non-TYPE S cables are not guaranteed to
power the dashcam properly.

Is it compatible with the TYPE S Add-on Rear cam (BT532838)?

Yes it is! You may purchase the BT532838 separately on typesauto.com. The rear cam can be plugged
into the AV-IN port on the windshield mount and draw power from there. For installation details, please
see the user manual of BT532838.

Will it drain my car battery?

No, it will not. If you connect it to your 12V cigarette lighter port, it'll turn on/off with your car. However,
if your car provides constant power through the 12V port even when your vehicle is off, please make
sure that you unplug it when you exit your vehicle to prevent this from happening.
If you decide to hardwire the camera to your vehicle via your TYPE S Hardwiring Kit (AC533513, sold
separately), you're still in good hands; the hardwiring kit will automatically stop drawing power from the
battery if it detects that your battery level is low.

Does the dashcam record audio?

Yes, it records audio by default, but you can turn audio recording off via the settings menu.

Will the camera stop recording when the SD card is full?

No, it shouldn't. The loop record feature that exists in all dashcams ensures that new footage overwrites
the oldest ones every time the SD card reaches storage limit, so that you'll never have to replace the SD
card.
