DashCam 500 User Manual
Getting Started
Tip 1:
You may want to get familiar with the DashCam or change settings
before attaching it to the window. In this case, you can attach the
USB power cord to the camera (see below) before mounting it to
the window.
Tip 2:
To navigate through the menu screens of the DashCam, you need to
use the buttons located below the camera’s screen. These buttons are
dynamic and change depending on the function you have selected.
The icons for the buttons are visible at the bottom of the screen.
Remember, the camera does not have a touch screen so in order to
move around the screen you need to use the buttons at the bottom
of the camera.
Connect a USB Cable for Power
The DashCam is powered by an internal battery, and can be recharged
using a micro USB cable.
Connect the USB cable to the port in the top left corner of the
DashCam, or to the connector on the end of the lock knob,
as shown above.
Connect the other end to a car changer in your vehicle.
Note:
This battery is intended only to finish a recording when or if the camera
has been disconnected from power in the case of an accident or for parking
mode. It is not intended to provide hours of use as a stand-alone camera.
