1. 

Install the device near the rear-view mirror to obtain the best open-field 
view. Do NOT install the camcorder in a location that will obstruct your 
required driving view. 

2. 

Make sure that the lens is within the wiping range of the windscreen 
wiper to ensure a clear view even when it rains. 

3. 

Do not touch the lens with your fingers. Finger grease may be left on the 
lens and will result in unclear videos or snapshots. Clean the lens on a 
regular basis. 

4.

tint film.

window.
