Introduction
Navman Smart Box II provides power to your Navman dash cam by connecting with the constant power of the fuse
terminal of your vehicle. It is very useful when you want to record video footage whilst parking. The Smart Box II
can prevent the discharge of the vehicle battery by blocking the electric power automatically as it checks the preset
time and voltage.

Installation and setup
1. Set up the voltage and time by adjusting the switches.
l
Setting up the voltage: The Smart Box II is designed to power the dash cam by drawing power from the car's
battery until it reaches a specific voltage limit. Once the car's battery falls lower than this level, the Smart Box
II will automatically stop drawing power from the car's battery.
It is recommended to set the Smart Box II to 12.2V (for passenger car and RV) / 24.4V (for
truck and bus), and only change it to the other setting options after checking with your car's
manufacturer and/or car’s battery manufacturer. Please contact your car's manufacturer and/
or car’s battery manufacturer for more information relating to the minimum battery voltage
required for your vehicle.
l
Setting up the time: If the time passes the preset time (by checking the time after vehicle ignition is turned
off), the power to the dash cam will be disconnected automatically.
l
Select either 12 / 24 / 36 hours to enable the uninterrupted power function of the Smart Box II and the
dash cam will be powered even when the vehicle engine stops.
l
If Power off is selected, the uninterrupted power function of the Smart Box II will be disabled and the dash
cam will be powered only when the vehicle engine is started.

2. Locate and open the fuse box inside of the vehicle.
Please note that the installation illustrations are for your reference only. The placement of the fuse box may
vary depending on the vehicle model. If you encounter any problems during installation, it is recommended
that you contact a skilled installer (e.g. the service personnel of the vehicle) for assistance.
3. Check and confirm the vehicle's voltage by using the electricity tester as battery voltages varies by vehicle.
You must confirm your vehicle's voltage.
Use the electricity tester to locate the fuse from which the power is supplied even when the vehicle is turned
off, such as the emergency flashing hazard lights, interior and door lights etc. Connect the yellow wire (B+) to
the fuse.
Use the electricity tester to locate the fuse from which the power is not supplied when the vehicle is turned off,
such as the indicator lights. Connect the red wire (ACC) to the fuse.
The black wire (GND) must be connected to the metal part of the vehicle for grounding. If not grounded, this
product may not work properly. You can use a screw to attach the black wire to the vehicle (try to find a screw
hole on any metal part).
Connect the Smart Box II to the dash cam and confirm it is working properly by the LED indicator that glows in
red. Then you can arrange the cable and complete the installation.
The length of the provided cable is about 4.5 metres. You can route the cable through the top ceiling and the
A-pillar so that it does not interfere with driving. Make sure that the cable installation does not interfere with
the vehicle airbags or other safety features.
