Common Problem and Solution

The recorder shows memory full, unable to loop video, etc.

1. First, when a new memory card is used for the first time on the machine. Please format the memory card to FAT32 format on the PC then format it in the camera.If the memory card is previously used on another type of device, it needs to be formatted when used on this camera. Or change to another new SANDISK 32G Micro SD CARD.
2. Check the sensitivity of the G-sensor, If the sensitivity is too high, the bumping and shaking of the camera will trigger the G-sensor, and the file will be locked. Locked files cannot be overwritten.lf the lock file is accumulated, there will be no memory card to loop the record. When the parking guard is turned on, shaking will also cause too many stray files, which will also affect the reading and writing of cards.)

The device will automatically turn on or turn off.

1. Please format the memory card to FAT32 format on the PC then format it in the camera.
