NOTICE
Some jurisdictions may prohibit or regulate recording audio and video or taking photographs. Jurisdictions may
require that all parties have knowledge of the recording and provide consent before you record audio and video
or take photographs. It is your responsibility to know and comply with all laws, regulations and any other

The dash cam records video to the camera memory card (
Installing the dash camera memory card, page 2
). By
default, the device immediately starts recording video when it turns on, and it continues recording until it is
turned off. If the memory card is full, the device automatically deletes the oldest unsaved video to create space
for new video.
When the option to promptly delete unsaved video is enabled, the device continually deletes unsaved video
more than three minutes old and deletes all unsaved video each time it is powered off. You can enable or
disable this feature in the camera settings (

You can save a video recording to prevent it from being overwritten or deleted.
