Installation

Install the electrostatic sticker
Park your car in a safe area, and turn off the car engine. Take out the electrostatic sticker from the packing box and install it in the recommended area on the windshield, as shown in the figure below. Please clean the windshield and remove the air bubbles  between the electrostatic sticker and the windshield during the installation.

Note
Please DO NOT attach the dash cam with the sticker to the windshield before the camera calibration to ensure the Al feature works properly.

Connect the power supply
Connect the USB cable to the USB Type-C port of the @ Dash Cam.
Run the cable along the edge of the windshield, tucking it away in the seams (With the Crowbar), and extend it all the way to the USB port of the al Car Charger. Be sure to keep it away from the airbag area.
Insert the al Car Charger into your cigarette lighter, and connect the Dash Cam to the Car Charger.

Note
Please securely position the car charging cable inside the vehicle.

Align vertical line to the center, horizontal line to the vanishing point of  the road in the preview LCD screen as shown below. Make sure the dash cam does not interfere with the driver’s view.

Note
The Al accuracy is dramatically affected by the position of installa­ tion. Please install carefully.

Press the bracket mount by hand to ensure that the heat resistant adhesive is in  close contact with the electrostatic sticker. Lock the bracket to the Dash Cam. You will hear a snap when it is in place.

Check and adjust the dash cam angle
Ensure your dash cam is installed as the right angle in step 3. You may adjust the camera angle up or down against the preview screen to ensure that the camera is facing correctly.

Mount Attachment
To attach the mount, align the pins on the mount with the holes on the adhesive attachment and slide firmly down until you hear the pieces click into place. To remove the top, do the reverse, and slide it up until you can lift it off the mounting pins.

Features

Note
Not all features are listed in this manual.
Parking Mode
When your car is not running, i.e. the engine is turned off, the Dash Cam will automatically power off in 10 seconds and enter the Park­ ing Mode. When a shock or crash is detected, the G-Sensor will acti­ vate the Dash Cam and start recording a 60-second video.  The Dash Cam will then reenter the Parking Mode.
Time Lapse
Time Lapse recording is a technique whereby the frequency at which file frames are captured (frame rate) is lower than that used when playing back the recording. Time Lapse recording can be considered the opposite of slow motion, as when there cording is  played back time appears to be moving faster. This feature operates for up to 24 hours after the ignition is turned off.

Note
Use of this function requires a Miofive USB Type-C hardwire kit (NOT included) to provide a constant power supply.
Emergency Recordings
A 60-second video will be captured when the G-Sensor is activated in case of sharp turns or a sudden stop. When the capacity of these videos reaches 30% of the SD card space, the oldest ones will be overwritten by the new ones.
