OnSite Cameras have pre-set your new dash camera for you, see below for settings.
Getting Started
Insert the micro SD Memory Card
Insert the memory card into the micro SD slot on the side of the dash camera.
Attaching the dash camera to your windscreen
Using the windscreen suction mount (or 3M sticker mount) fit the dash camera high to the left of your
windscreen. (Often the best place is close to the rear vision mirror, if your vehicle has one.) When fitted correctly
the dash camera should not obscure the driver’s vision. Each State has their own legal requirements for where
dash cameras can be installed please check these laws before installing and ensure that your dash cam complies.
(It is illegal and dangerous to move or operate your dash camera whilst driving).
To power the dash camera
Insert the power lead into the dash camera via the mini USB port and plug the power lead into the cigarette
lighter. WARNING: Do not use USB cables in your vehicle to power the dash camera, as this will result in your
dash camera receiving too much voltage and will void your warranty. If you have chosen to hardwire the dash
camera, ensure it is an approved hardwire kit supplied by OnSite Cameras only, and all components are tested
thoroughly, by an Auto Electrician, before installation. The circuit for the hardwire kit should be the same as the
cigarette lighter circuit (coming on and off with the vehicle’s power and does not stay powered 24/7). Any
electrical work performed on the vehicle such as hardwire installation is done at your own risk and OnSite
Cameras cannot be held responsible for any installation costs or additional costs that may be incurred after a
fault or failure of dash camera, mount, hardwire kit, or car electrics. We strongly recommend that you hire a
fully qualified, insured, and experienced Auto Electrician to install the hardwire kit for you. The dash camera is
ONLY 5V/1A, and using a power lead not supplied by OnSite Cameras will void your warranty.
Once the dash camera is powered it will automatically come on and start recording
Format the micro SD memory card
You must format your micro SD memory card in the dash camera prior to its first use. To stop the dash camera
from recording press the DOWN button and to format your SD card select Menu/File Management/Format.
Press OK to start recording again. We recommend you format your micro SD memory card at least once a
month. This reduces the chance of SD card errors which can cause operational malfunctions with the dash
camera. WARNING: All files are permanently deleted when your micro SD card is formatted. Please ensure you
have downloaded and saved any/all files that you require prior to formatting, this function cannot be undone.
Micro SD memory cards
The dash camera should always be turned off to remove or to insert the micro SD memory card. It is
recommended to get an SD with SDHC Class 10 (or above). Beware of imitation or inferior micro SD memory
