  the driving process.

• Wide Dynamic Recognition (WDR): Clearly record details in both highlights and shadows, even in extremely strong light and dark contrasts.

• Super Night-Vision Mode: Capture clear image even in the dark night.

• Advanced Driving Assistance System (ADAS): Sensing the surrounding environment of the vehicle, real-time voice reminding safe driving, reminding the front car collision, front car start, lane departure, pedestrian collision, for safe driving escort.

• Lane Change Assistance (LCA): Monitors the driver’s blind spot behind the vehicle; Warns the driver when another vehicle poses a danger to the vehicle’s lane change.

• Rear Collision Warning(RCW): Real-time monitor the rear of the car, and issue a warning message when the rear collision may occur, always ensure the rear safety for the user.

Installation

Insert the Memory Card

Insert a suitable Memory card (16G-512G, FAT32 / UHS-III) into the Dash Cam. Push the memory card until it clicks into place (The text side of the memory card is oriented in the same direction as the screen). Please make sure to use a memory card of UHS-III level or above, otherwise it may cause device abnormalities.

Insert the Memory Card

Note: Do not remove or insert the memory card while the power is on, as this may damage the card or the video content therein.

In-Vehicle Installation – Front Camera

1. Select a mounting location
   The front camera needs to be mounted right in the middle of the windshield, and the deviation from the center line should not exceed 10 cm, otherwise the accuracy of the AI function may be affected.
   Note: It is recommended that the front camera be mounted behind the rear- view mirror to avoid obstructing the driver’s view. AI Dash cam location(Recommended area, as below):

2. Attach the front camera on Windshield
   Select a proper mounting location on windshield, wipe the location area clean with a lint-free cloth. The windshield must be free of dust, wax, oils, or coatings, and then apply the static sticker. Remove the overlay to expose the 3M adhesive side and stick the AI Dash Cam into the dashed box in the middle of the static sticker. Make sure the front camera is horizontal and facing straight to the windshield to capture the desired view, such as the road in the center. Place the bracket firmly on the mounting position of the static sticker for 30 seconds.

3. Adjust the Front camera
   Note: Recommend to make the camera capture an image with both the sky and the ground equally (50% is the sky and 50% is the ground).

In-Vehicle installation – Rear Camera

1. Select a proper mounting location on windshield, wipe the location area clean with a lint-free cloth. The windshield must be free of dust, wax, oils, or coatings.
2. Remove the cover layer to expose the 3M adhesive surface; Ensure that the cable port of rear camera directs to the right side and the view captured is desired field; Firmly place the mount on the mounting location of windshield for 30 seconds.
3. Route the rear camera cable and plug another end of cable into the front camera.
