INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS HM-DVR22 INSTALLATION 1. OPTIONAL: The electrostatic film helps for easy removal of the Dash Camera from the windscreen and is included in package contents. Select the electrostatic film from the box and install it on the front windshield in the recommended position as shown. Please wipe the glass before installation and push out any air bubbles between the static film and the glass before installation. 2. Remove the protective film from the HM-DVR22 mounting bracket and position the Dash Camera in the middle of the electrostatic film. Press down the base of the bracket by hand for 30 seconds to ensure that the adhesive is attached to the electrostatic film, and adjust the camera until its lens is capturing the entire road. 3. Run the Dash Camera charging cable along the top of the front windscreen through the A-pillar and around and under glove box to the car's 12V/24V adaptor port. Connect the 12V/24V adaptor to the car power.
REAR CAMERA INSTALLATION 1. Install the electrostatic film on the rear windscreen in one of the recommended positions as shown in the diagram. Please wipe and clean the windscreen before installation and push out any air bubbles between the electrostatic film and the glass. 2. Remove the protective film from the rear camera bracket and select either the top or bottom of the rear windscreen to position the rear camera. 3. Press down the base of the bracket by hand for about 30 seconds to ensure that the adhesive sticker is properly attached to the electrostatic film. 4. Connect the rear camera to the HM-DVR22 using the supplied rear camera cable. Run the cabling either through the roof lining or under the carpet. 5. Adjust the angle of the rear camera accordingly to ensure that you have a good rear view from your vehicle.
THE 3-WIRE SMART HARDWIRE KIT IMPORTANT: Refer to your vehicle owner’s manual to determine: • Location of the fuse box • How to access the fuse box • The type of fuse tap required It is highly recommended that you thoroughly read the installation instructions in this user manual. If you are not comfortable with the process, please seek further assistance from an authorised technician.
If there are any issues with your dashcam, please refer them to your dasham manufacturer. 10.0 PRODUCT INFORMATION Get continuous power for your dashcam. The 3-Wire Smart Hardwire Kit connects to your vehicle battery through your vehicle’s fuse box and provides continuous power to your dashcam even when the engine is turned off. It includes several fuse tap options that suit most vehicles and your dashcam connects to the hardwire kit via the Mini USB connector. For the latest manual and product updates, please visit hema.com.au or hema.co.nz. 11.0 FEATURES • Suitable for use in cars and trucks with with a 12V or 24V battery. • Provides continuous power to your dashcam even when your vehicle is turned off. • Battery Drain Protection safeguards your dashcam from draining your vehicle’s battery. Your battery will stop providing power to your dashcam if your battery level gets too low.
12.0 BATTERY DRAIN PROTECTION The hardwire kit will protect your dashcam from draining your vehicle’s battery. If your vehicle’s battery voltage gets too low, the 3-wire hardwire kit will stop powering your camera to save power. 12.1 SETTING THE CUT-OFF VOLTAGE SWITCH Set the cut-off voltage to the preferred voltage limits before the hardwire kit cuts off the output. There are four protection bands set within the hardwire kit for your selection. FOR 12V BATTERIES The protection voltages are 11.8V / 12.0V / 12.2V / 12.4V. The 12.2V setting is recommended for general driving conditions. FOR 24V BATTERIES The protection voltages are 23.6V / 24.0V / 24.4V / 24.8V. The 24.4V setting is recommended for most users in general driving conditions. The hardwire kit will identify the lead acid battery type automatically (12V or 24V) and protect your battery from draining accordingly. 12.2 SETTING THE PARKING MONITOR SWITCH Default (High) on the right side, is automatically selected to comply with all Hema dash camera models.
12.3 VEHICLE BATTERY LEAD ACID STATE AND CAPACITY Use the table below to help determine the desired voltage cut-off level for battery drain protection. For example if the temperature is 38°C and you want to keep a 75% lead acid state capacity remaining in your battery when the hardwire kit cuts off output (meaning the battery voltage is approximately 12.4V) the cut- off voltage should be set at the 12.4V band. This means that there will be a 25% capacity in your vehicle battery to be used for your dashcam while your vehicle is parked. As an example, for a 50Wh lead acid battery, the 25% consumption level will enable approximately 50 hours of dashcam operation. TEMPERATURE LEAD ACID STATE AND VOLTAGE (VOLT) °C 100% 12�794...
13.0 HARDWIRE KIT INSTALLATION The location of the vehicle’s fuse box varies by vehicle make and model. Locations may include underneath the driver’s side dashboard, behind the glove box and underneath the central console.
