Nextbase Dash Cams 522GW
User Manual
Introduction to your Dash Cam
This range of NextbaseTM Dash Cams has been designed specifically with ease of
use in mind; it is recommended NOT to change the default settings, which have
been carefully selected to give the best performance for day to day use.
Please check the firmware version of the Dash Cam, the version can be found in
the Setup menu under System Info. The latest versions are available to
download from our website, where you can download and update when necessary.
www.nextbase.com
First Time Use
Before you can use your Dash Cam, it is essential to make sure it is fully
charged. Connect your Dash Cam via the USB port to a home power source such as
a PC or home USB socket for approximately 2 hours.
Basic Operation
It is essential that a quality branded Class 10 or U3 type Micro SD card is
used with this Dash Cam due to the very large data rate generated by high
resolution recording. For best results, we recommend using our Nextbase
branded SD cards with your Dash Cam. For use with Rear Cam attached, a U3 Card
is required. Your Nextbase Dash Cam is set to record video, in files of just 1
minute in length. This means that each video file is a manageable size should
you need to download and send to your insurance company. Eventually your
MicroSD card will fill up with video files but don’t worry, the camera
automatically deletes the oldest file to make space for new recordings. This
way you never run out of space and have plenty of driving data saved.
Typically a 16Gb card will store the last 1.5 hours of driving footage.
The GPS will automatically adjust for Daylight Savings Time.
Automatic Start / Stop Technology
The Dash Cam will automatically power on and be ready to use once power is
available. In some vehicles this will be when connections are made, for others
the Dash Cam will power on once the ignition has been turned on. When power is
cut off, the Dash Cam will perform an automatic shutdown process.
1. Tips for capturing best video footage:
1.1 Position the Dash Cam in the centre of the windscreen and ideally behind
the rear view mirror so it is not a distraction to the driver.
1.2 Ensure that the area on the windscreen that the Dash Cam is looking
through is clear of dirt and is within the wiper zone. This will ensure that
your videos are as clear as possible.
1.3 Reduce the amount of sky in the picture, by angling the view of the camera
towards the road. Too much sky will make the road appear darker due to the
automatic exposure compensation.
1.4 Remove unnecessary items from your dashboard. If objects are placed on
your dashboard these can cause reflections to be seen on the windscreen and
these reflections may be captured during recording.
2. Tips for stable memory card performance:
2.1 Periodically format the memory card. Every 2-3 weeks we recommend that you
format the memory card. This will wipe any files from the card and set it up
afresh for continued use with your Dash Cam. Of course, you should only do
this AFTER you’ve downloaded any files from the card that you may want to
keep, as formatting the card will remove all content.
2.2 Format your memory card using the Dash Cam. This will make sure that the
card is structured specifically for your camera. Within the Setup menu, select
`Format SD Card’ and follow the on-screen instructions.
2.3 Switch off the Dash Cam before removing the SD card, to prevent the chance
of damage being caused to the memory card or the files stored upon it.
Nextbase SD Cards
For best results, we strongly recommend using our NextbaseTM branded SD cards
with your Dash Cam, available to purchase online from nextbase.com, or your
nearest retailer. A card that is not made specifically for a Dash Cam may
appear to work perfectly in the beginning, although failure tends to happen
after prolonged use, this could be days, weeks, or months. In a worst-case
scenario, you may only discover recording failure after your SD card fails to
record a serious incident, therefore using a suitable SD card is imperative.

Notices
G Sensor Notice
The G Sensor within the Dash Cam measures forces exerted upon it, with
reference to one g which is the nominal force exerted upon us when stationary
on the earth’s surface. The G Sensor will also trigger to protect any
recording currently in progress, if a pre-determined threshold of force is
exceeded. The G Sensor protection will be adversely affected if the Dash Cam
is NOT mounted in the vertical direction i.e. with the lens pointing to or
from the direction of travel. G Force information derived from a G Sensor is
not warranted to be totally accurate at all times, as it is derived from the G
Sensor through a sampling method over time. The precision of the G Sensor
value recorded depends upon when the acceleration took place at the instance
of the sample taken. The thresholds to trigger the video protection rely upon
a trigger value being exceeded between two successive samples, in any one of
the three G Sensor axis. If the Automatic G Sensor protection does NOT trigger
during an event, then the Protect button should be pressed, in order to
protect the file. Protecting the file can also be performed using the Playback
function upon the Dash Cam (models with LCD screens), or indeed through the
MyNextbase ConnectTM App for applicable Wi-Fi models.

1. Insert MicroSD Card Insert a suitable MicroSD card (Class 10, U3, minimum
48/Mbps) in to the Dash Cam, taking care that the gold contacts are facing
towards the LCD screen side of the Dash Cam. Push the memory card until it
clicks into place.
Note: – Use the edge of a small coin (or similar object) to push the memory
card in place if required.
Take care that card has ‘clicked’ into place, a second push inwards will
release the memory card.
– For best results,we recommend using Nextbase branded SD cards.
– Do not remove or insert the memory card when the Dash Cam is turned on. This
may damage the memory card, or recordings within.
2. Remove dust cover from the Dash Cam Remove the dust cover that is located
on the front of the Dash Cam to gain access to the mounting point.
To remove the dust cover, lift the cover away from the body of the Dash Cam.
Note: – If the Dash Cam is not to be used for a period of time replace the
dust cover to help keep
the components free of dust or other contaminants.
3. Attach the mount to the Dash Cam

Cable Tidy Tool (included with your Dash Cam)
5 Plug the power cable into the 12-24Vdc outlet of your vehicle The Dash Cam
will automatically power on and start recording once power is available. In
some vehicles this will be when connections are made, for others the Dash Cam
will power on once the ignition has been turned on. Also available to purchase
is a NextbaseTM Hardwire Kit. This connects your Dash Cam directly to the
vehicle’s fusebox to power it leaving your 12Vdc outlet available for Phone /
Sat Nav charging. The Nextbase Hardwire Kit includes the necessary 12-24Vdc to
5Vdc convertor and battery protection circuitry. See page 9-10 of the Nextbase
Accessories Manual for further information. Route the power cable around the
windshield to the 12-24Vdc socket, ensuring that your view is not obstructed,
and that the cable is not a distraction. Use the cable fitting tool (bottom,
left) included with your Dash Cam to more easily open the lining of your
vehicle, within which you can stow the cable. See page 17, `Positioning your
Dashcam’ for more details. Note: – Do NOT wire the Dash Cam directly to a
12Vdc supply by cutting the cigarette plug off the end of the cable, or
permanent damage will result.

9 Adjusting the Dash Cam With the mount attached to the windscreen, ensure
that objects on the Dash Cam display are level and adjust as required. Ensure
that the road ahead is at the centre of the image, in the central third of the
display. If too much of the sky is visible it may risk underexposing details
on the road; ensure that the road ahead is clearly visible on the Dash Cam
display. Do NOT attempt to adjust the Dash Cam while driving.
16
Positioning Your Dash Cam
Please read and follow the notes below for the safe operation of your Dash Cam
within your vehicle.
Before using the device on your windscreen, check the state and local laws and
ordinances where you drive. Some laws prohibit or restrict the placement of
objects on the windscreen of a motor vehicle. IT IS THE USER’S RESPONSIBILITY
TO MOUNT THE DEVICE IN COMPLIANCE WITH ALL APPLICABLE LAWS AND ORDINANCES.
Always mount your NextbaseTM device in a location that does not obstruct the
driver’s view of the road. Nextbase does not assume any responsibility for any
fines, penalties, or damages that may be incurred as a result of any state or
local law or ordinance relating to the use of your Nextbase device. As per the
installation instructions, you must install the Dash Cam so it does NOT
obstruct the driver’s view of the road (red, above), preferably on the
passenger side of the vehicle and behind the rear view mirror. The Dash Cam
needs to view through a clear section of windscreen in an area swept by the
windscreen wipers (green, above). However, the Dash Cam should be installed so
as not to intrude significantly within the wiped area. A 40mm intrusion into
the green wiped area is the maximum permitted by UK law.
Hiding the Cable
Make sure the hanging cable does not obstruct your view out of your rear
window. Ensure that there are no kinks in the cable as you are stowing it. If
necessary, use the cable tidy tool supplied with your Dash Cam; this can be
used to help pry open the lining of your car (see illustration below).
Notes On Positioning Your Dash Cam
– Do NOT mount the Dash Cam in front of the driver, as depicted by the red
area in the illustration to the left of this page.
– When installing the Dash Cam in a vehicle, always place the device securely
against the windscreen and where possible conceal the power cable under trim.
– Make sure that the Dash Cam power cable does not interfere with the drivers
operating controls, such as the steering wheel, pedals or gear levers.
– Do NOT mount the Dash Cam in front of an airbag field of deployment or in a
position to obscure any mirrors.
– Clean the windscreen at the point of location, prior to fitting the Dash
Cam.
– The 522GW comes with a built-in polarising filter on the lens, designed to
reduce glare and improve the clarity of your recordings. Looking at the Dash
Cam’s display, rotate the bezel at the front of the lens until the captured
image is at it’s clearest, and glare is at a minimum. For more information on
the polarising filter and setup, see page 18.
– It is recommended NOT to operate the Dash Cam whilst driving. The automatic
Start-Stop technology incorporated within the device negates any need to
operate the controls whilst driving.
– Adjust any settings or review recordings whilst stationery, not whilst
driving.
– After the preliminary SETUP has been carried out upon the Dash Cam, adjust
the Screen Saver settings to either ON or Speed display (showing only your
speed). Turning the Screen Saver ON will blank the screen 30 seconds after
starting the vehicle and therefore the screen will NOT be a distraction to the
driver.
Accessories
Multiple accessories can be purchased for your Nextbase Dash Cam, including a
rear window camera, Dual USB charger, and a rear facing camera. Some of these
products can effect where you should position your camera. For more
information on how to position and use these products, download the `Nextbase
Accessories Manual’ PDF at www.nextbase.com.

Polarising Filter
The Polarising Filter (highlighted on the Dash Cam, below) is designed to
reduced the glare on your windscreen as seen through the Dash Cam, allowing
you to record the road ahead clearly. In bright sunlight the filter will also
enhance the colour and contrast levels to help capture number plates and other
vital details.
Adjust the Polarising Filter
The most effective way to set up your Polarising Filter (1) is to place a
piece of plain white paper (2) on your dashboard (3) under the rear view
mirror. With your camera turned ON you will see the reflection (4) of the
paper in the LCD screen of the Dash Cam. Look at the reflection (4) on the
windscreen through the Dash Cam display (5).
Do not place fingers on the glass lens of the filter. Do not adjust the filter while in control of the vehicle
3
4
2

5
Gently rotate the front bezel to adjust the filter. Rotate the filter until
the windscreen reflection can no longer be seen on the Dash Cam display (see
below).
Once the reflection can no longer be seen, operate the Dash Cam normally.
Please note; it may not be possible to fully remove the reflection, but using
the Polarising Filter will noticeably improve your video quality.

The above diagram is for illustration purposes only.
Mount Attachment
To attach the mount, align the pins on the mount with the holes on the
adhesive attachment and slide firmly to the right until you hear the pieces
click into place. To remove the top, simply do the reverse, slide it to the
left until you can lift it off of the mounting pins.
Ensure the windshield is free of grease and dirt before mounting; if
necessary, clean with a warm, clean cloth. Ensure that the Mount and Dash Cam
do not obstruct the driver’s view.
Removing Adhesive Residue
If you wish to remove the adhesive mount from your windscreen, use hot soapy
water or an alcohol based solution to get rid of any sticky residue and ensure
that your windscreen remains clean and clear. Leaving residue on the
windscreen for an extended period of time will make it harder to remove. If
hot water or an alcohol based solution proves ineffective, it may be necessary
to use a small sharp blade. If this is the case, protect your fingers and use
the blade flat against the surface of the glass to avoid causing scratches.
19
First Time Use
To ensure the set up of this Dash Cam is as quick and simple as possible,
there is an easy to follow `First Time Use’ menu.
This menu is used to set your preferred Language, Country (inc. Time Zone) and
Speed Units.
Before you can use your Dash Cam, it is essential to make sure it is fully charged. Connect your Dash Cam via the USB port to a home power source such as a PC or home USB socket for approximately 2 hours.
This menu will appear when:
1. The Dash Cam is first turned on. 2. There has been a Firmware Update
applied to the Dash Cam and Keep User Settings’ has been set to OFF. If It is set to ON, your Dash Cam will start normally, with your settings intact. 3. After the Dash Cam’s settings have been reset, by using the
Default Settings’ option in
the Setup Menu.
Follow the on-screen instruction to select the Language, Country, and Speed
Units. The settings that influence the displayed time & date will be applied
upon receiving a GPS connection.
Note: The First Time Use menu is in place to get you up and running quickly
and smoothly. The settings you choose during First Time Use can be changed at
any later time in the setup menus.

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 the recording is played back time appears to be moving faster.
For example, a recording taken over three minutes would be played back as a 30 second movie.
Notes: – When Time Lapse is turned On, Recording History will be turned Off.
– Time lapse is considered as a leisure activity setting and not for use in order to collect evidence
in the case of an incident. Time Lapse should be turned off for normal driving conditions.

Recording History In some territories, there are laws prohibiting the amount of footage your Dash Cam should
hold. The default setting is `Maximum’, where your Dash Cam records and stores videos without
restriction.
If `Minimum’ is selected you will first be asked to Format (wipe) your SD Card; be sure to back
up any files you wish to keep before doing this. If you choose not to Format the SD Card, no action
is taken and the function will not be activated.
Once the SD Card has been formatted, the file recording length will be automatically set to
1 minute. The Dash Cam will now be limited to storing only 4 unprotected files at any one time.
When a new file is recorded it will overwrite the oldest file, keeping the number of stored files
at the maximum of 4.
As protected files (i.e. recordings of incidents) cannot be overwritten, these do not count
towards the 4 file maximum, and are stored to the capacity of the SD Card.
When Recording History is turned On, Time Lapse will be turned Off.
Options: Maximum and Minimum
Default: Maximum
16
Parking Mode When Parking Mode has been turned on, the Dash Cam enters standby mode when the 12Vdc
supply has been turned OFF (typically removing your ignition key).
The Dash Cam will also enter standby mode if no physical movement is detected for 5 minutes, this is designed to allow use of a permanent 12Vdc supply, i.e hard-wire kit.
Should physical movement of the vehicle be detected, the Dash Cam will power
on and start recording a 30 second protected video. If no further physical
movement is detected then the Dash Cam will return to standby mode, if
physical movement is detected subsequently, then the camera will continue to
record normally, i.e. driving once more. Options: On and Off Default: Off

on-screen emergency SOS countdown, the MyNextbase Connect app will
automatically send a crash alert containing your GPS location, mobile number,
medical details and vehicle information to the Emergency Services. If you are
ok, you can deactivate the alert manually or respond to the follow-up call
from an emergency services operator.
If the alert does not get cancelled, Emergency Response operators will
automatically begin the process of dispatching paramedics to your last known
location.
If the crash detection technology within the camera is triggered
inadvertently, the MyNextbase Connect app is designed to detect a range of
vehicle and customer movements such as continued driving, walking around or
moving the phone. It will automatically cancel the Emergency SOS process if
movement is detected as we expect you can call the emergency services if
medical assistance is required.

Emergency SOS Frequently Asked Questions
The below points are there to answer any further questions you might have
about the Emergency SOS system.
Question
If I crash, will you notify the Police? Can I set it off inadvertently?
What happens if I receive a call and don’t need an ambulance?
What happens if I am out of mobile phone signal range? What happens if the
phone battery dies?
What testing and evaluation has the MyNextbase ConnectTM App undergone?
Response
No. The MyNextbase ConnectTM app automatically sends your location, medical
and vehicle details to the nearest Ambulance or Emergency Response Service
only.
The Emergency SOS feature has a range of safeguards to ensure it won’t alert
the emergency services unless it has validated that assistance is required.
This is tried and tested technology has been UK Government approved for
connecting directly to the emergency services.
The Emergency SOS countdown gives you 150 seconds to deactivate the phone
sensor monitoring process. Failure to deactivate will then result in a call
from the Emergency Services operator. If you are ok you can simply cancel the
process via the camera or app within 150 seconds or answer the emergency
services call. If you do not manage to do either, simply press the ‘Call
Emergency Services’ button and tell the operator that the crash detection
feature sent an alert and that you missed the call back.
In the event of an accident, the MyNextbase Connect app requires a network
connection and mobile signal. The network connection is needed to send a very
small data packet (about 1.5kb) to the emergency services, and the mobile
signal is required for the Emergency operator to call your phone. If there is
no network coverage, then the MyNextbase Connect app cannot send the data.
If your phone’s battery dies while the MyNextbase Connect app is monitoring
your phone’s key sensors, then this data can NOT be sent.
Due to the nature of the Emergency SOS feature and it’s ability to connect
directly to the Emergency Services, rigorous testing and evaluations are
carried out on a regular basis. These include but are not limited to:
– Regular camera/app crash, processing and connectivity testing – Confidence
and accuracy testing – Emergency Service integration and process testing

MyNextbase Player – Editing Videos
To use MyNextbase PlayerTM to edit your recorded files, you need to ensure that the file you wish to edit is currently playing in the Playback Window. You can do this by double clicking the file as it appears in the File List window. When the file is playing, click on the `Edit’ button to begin the 6 step editing process.
1. Join Videos (Optional) The first step allows you to join multiple videos together. Please note that the videos you join together must all be the same resolution. Your video will appear in the centre of the screen, with buttons on either side to add additional videos before or after the chosen video file. Clicking either of these buttons will open up the list of files in your library that can be added. Once added, these will appear next to your original video file. The order of the video files can be altered by clicking and dragging a video. To remove a video, hover over the chosen file and a `Remove Video’ option will appear. Click to remove this video. Once you are happy with the video(s) selected, click on the continue button to move to step 2.
2. Trim Video Trimming the video allows you to shorten your selected clip to only include the incident or event that you are interested in. To the left of the Playback Timeline is a green marker, indicating the beginning of your video. To the right of the Playback Timelime is a red marker, indicating the end of your video. These can be dragged to a point on the Timeline of your choosing; when exporting, MyNextbase Player will create a single video file from the footage located between the markers. The white marker indicates your current playback position.
3. Annotate Video (Optional) During the video there may be an object or incident that you wish to highlight, annotating you video will allow you to do this. When you annotate a frame, your video will pause at the specified frame and display any annotations that you have added. The video will resume after 4 seconds.

To begin adding annotations, find the frame you
wish to annotate (using the white marker, and
left/right arrows to scroll through frames), and click
Annotation window
on the `Add Annotation’ button to open the annotation
screen. Along the top of the annotation screen you will see the annotation tools; Draw, Circle, Square,
Rectangle, and Text. Clicking any of these options will add an editable annotation to that frame.
This shape/text can be moved, resized, and rotated using the handles on the sides and corners of the
selected annotation.
When you have finished your annotation, click Save and Close’ to return to the Add Annotation screen, where more annotations can be added. When you have finished adding annotations, press
Continue’ to proceed.
4. Add Title Screen (Optional) Add a title screen to your video. The title will be displayed for 4 seconds at the start of your video. To add a title, click inside the white rectangle and type the desired title. Press `Continue’ to proceed.
5. Output Settings (Optional) The final step in the editing process allows
you to specify the quality of your video file and the data included.
The Video Resolution determines the quality of the video footage; by default
the Video Resolution will be set to output at the same quality as the original
files. Lowering the Video Resolution will produce lower resolution files but
will also reduce the size of the file and lower the time it takes to produce
the file. Stamps for GPS, number plate, and time can also be removed, as well
as the audio and GPS data from the video by ticking the corresponding box.
Once the data has been removed it cannot be added back into the edited video.
This will not affect the original file.
Lastly, you can specify the name of the file being created and the location
that you would like it saved. When you have chosen your output settings click
on the Confirm’ button and MyNextbase Player will begin processing your video. 6\. Process Video During step 6, MyNextbase Player will process your video clip(s) and edits, and produce a single file in the location specified. This can take some time and will depend on the number and length of video files being joined and video resolution. Once the video has been processed, it will be added to your MyNextbase Player file list. Video Sharing Videos can be shared to social media and insurers through the
Share Video’
button. When a destination is selected (i.e Facebook), the target web page
will open in your default browser. You will then be asked to sign into your
account, and once you are logged in, the browser will close and a pop up will
show your upload’s progress. When the file is finished uploading you will see
an option to view your uploaded file. Videos can also be upload to the
NextbaseTM server; you will be e-mailed a secure link to view or download your
video. This link can be sent to your insurer, without the need to transfer a
large video file. Videos will be automatically deleted 30 days after upload.
More Features
When a video is being played back in the Playback Window, press `Crtl + i’ to
open a window displaying all of the metadata for that video including
information such as: file name and size, resolution and frame rate, max and
average speeds, GPS information, and more.
Some functions, such as GPS data, are available only on select models.

or monitor to allow you to view your videos on a larger screen. You can
connect your Dash Cam to any television or monitor using an HD-Out cable.

Dash Cam. Connect the HD-Out cable (available from your nearest retailer)
between the Dash Cam and your external device (see diagram below), then turn
on the Dash Cam. The screen on the Dash Cam will be blank as the video image
is now being sent to the external device, the red power LED on the Dash Cam
will be lit indicating the unit is turned on. You can then proceed to use the
Dash Cam as you would normally. Make sure that the Dash Cam battery is charged
prior to use, as power is not supplied to the Dash Cam via the HD-Out cable.
For prolonged use, an external power supply may be required; use the supplied
USB cable with a 5Vdc/USB adaptor, of the type typically supplied with mobile
phones. Note: ENSURE that any external power sources are of the correct 5Vdc
output, otherwise damage
will be caused that is not covered under the manufacturer’s warranty.

I cannot insert the MicroSD card.
I cannot remove the MicroSD card. Video Files cannot be played on my computer.
Video File playback is jumpy.
The sound is not synchronised with video during playback. Video has no sound.
Photograph is blurred. I can only record a few minutes of video on my MicroSD

computer. I can’t delete files on my SD card within the Dash Cam.
Solution
Remove the protective lens cover, clean the lens, make sure the windshield is
clean and clear of grease, dirt, and debris. Ensure that the Polarising Filter
has been set properly see page 18 for instructions on how to set up the
Polarising Filter.
MicroSD cards are very small and require delicate use. Align the card with the
diagram shown upon the Dash Cam and insert the card until you feel a slight
spring resistance. You now need to push the card, using your finger nail until
you hear and feel a small click. Release pressure and the card will stay
retained within the Dash Cam. If you are having difficulty, use the edge of a
small coin.
With the card installed, using your fingernail, you now need to push the card
further inwards slightly, until you hear and feel a small click. If you are
having difficulty, use the edge of a small coin. Release pressure and the
MicroSD card will spring out far enough for you to take a hold of it.
The video files from the Dash Cam are in .MP4 format and may not be compatible
with your PC if suitable playback software is not installed.
Remove the SD card and format to remove non-contiguous files. For best
recording use a branded class 10 type (48MB/s), U3, or UHS type 1 micro SD
card of 8 to 128GB recommended size. PC may not be sufficient for the playback
task, try a different PC. Copy the recorded video files onto the PC / Mac for
playback directly rather than use the Dash Cam as a card reader, as the USB
system on your PC may be too slow for HD video playback.
The Codecs upon your PC may not be compatible or the latest standard. Download
the latest Codecs from: www.nextbase.com.
Ensure that Audio’ setting is turned ON within the Video Menu. Make sure the Dash Cam is still while taking the photo. The Dash Cam has a minimum focal range of around 2 meters. objects closer than this are likely to become blurred, Change the recording size (Video Length function) to a smaller size. Increase the size of the MicroSD card. Max 128GB. In the Setup Menu, ensure that Recording History is set to Maximum. Minimum limits the total number of recordings on your Dash Cam to 4. The Access Files function will work on both Windows and Mac. Restart the PC, as this may be required for the necessary driver to be loaded correctly. Disconnect and reconnect the Dash Cam. Be aware that you cannot transfer files to the Dash Cam in
Access Files’. Files can be transferred to the SD Card
using an SD Card reader. Correct, the Dash Cam is a read-only’ device. It is not recommenced to save files from other sources to the same memory that you will use for recording within the Dash Cam, as these may have a negative effect on the performance of the Dash Cam. Either the battery has gone flat, there is no power to the Dash Cam and the Auto Power Off period has been triggered or Parking Mode has been turned on and no vehicle movement has been detected for 5 minutes. The cigarette power cable is not working. Inspect the fuse in the Car Power Cable plug. Replacement fuse = 2A 32mm type. If the fuse is found to be blown, inspect the power cable for damage which may have caused the fuse to blow. Check to see if these files are
protected’. If so please follow instructions
to `un-protect’.

Solution
The screen saver is set to ON. Change settings to OFF if required. Default
setting is OFF.
The SD card has been formatted in another device and the Cluster size is not
compatible. Use the Setup Menu to format the SD card from within the SD card.
Ensure the Dash Cam is connected to a reliable power source and that the
supplied Car Power Cable is being used, with the blue LED lit.
The battery will only receive charge when the Dash Cam is connected to a power
source.
Charging takes approximately 2 hours and a full charge is indicated when the
blue LED on the Dash Cam goes out. To charge, take the camera indoors and
charge it for 2 hours; once fully charged, check to see if the problem
persists. If it persists, the car power supply may be causing the issue.
This is normal, the battery design allows the ‘Auto Power Off’ feature to
function in event of power loss within the vehicle. It is not intended as an
alternative power source to replace the supplied car adaptor.
The SD card has become unusable by the Dash Cam. Back up useful files to your
PC and then Format your SD card from within the Dash Cam setup menu.
The SD card has become full as there are too many protected files which cannot
be deleted to allow for further recording to take place. Transfer useful files
to your PC and delete unnecessary files, or Format the SD card from within the
Dash Cam setup menu.
The Dash Cam is not compatible with all TVs and monitors. Ensure that all
connections are correctly attached.
The Dash Cam will start a recording whenever motion is detected. To turn off
Parking Mode firstly shutdown the Dash Cam and remove the SD card, this will
avoid recording being activated accidentally. Switch the Dash Cam On and
within the Setup Menu, turn off the ‘Parking Mode’.
This is normal during recording. Stop the recording before pressing the MENU
button. If recording re-starts before you can press MENU, then see the Parking
Mode section above.
This is not a cause for concern, as this message will appear whenever new
software is downloaded from the internet. Simply go to the settings within
Google Chrome and turn off the malicious software protection temporarily to
download and install the playback software. Reinstate previous Google Chrome
settings afterwards.
Try multiple USB ports and an alternative mini USB cable (if possible). Please
ensure it is inserted into the USB port on the Dash Cam and not into the
mount.
It is normal for the camera to feel warm during typical use, especially when
it’s recording high definition video or communicating via Wi-Fi. Ensure that
you have both the Alexa App and the MyNextbase Connect app installed. We
recommend signing into Alexa through the MyNextbase Connect home screen to
ensure that the apps are successfully paired. Ensure that the volume is turned
up on your paired smartphone.
There is some variability in the effectiveness of QR Code scanning apps. If
yours is not working, try a different one. If the problem persists, you can
visit the Google Play Store/Apple App Store and search for MyNextbase Connect
or Amazon Alexa manually. Reset the Dash Cam to the default settings within
the Setup Menu and try again. Should the problem persist call the UK helpline
(02920) 866429 or call your local support centre, found at www.nextbase.com
Alternatively email: support@nextbase.com

CE Mark Information (Conformité Europénne)
The CE (Conformité Européenne) mark is a symbol (below) printed on products to
indicates it’s conformity with health, safety, and environmental protection
standards for products sold within Europe. It is used on many products across
many industries (for example, SD cards) as a mark of compliance with European
standards.
In recent years, many variations of this mark have appeared in the market. While similar, the mark above is the only variant that is associated with, and declares compliance with European standards. Other marks, like the ones below, do not guarantee that the product it is attached to or is compliant with European standards for sale in the European Economic Area (EEA).
The main difference between a legitimate CE mark and a misused CE mark is the spacing of the letters. The letters, C and E, tend to be formed identically, however the spacing between them is what separates the real from the false. The images below show how the letters should be spaced. There will never be additional markings such as a border or circle used on a legitimate CE Mark.
CE Mark
False CE Mark (too close)
False CE Mark (too far)
As products without the correct CE marking are not guaranteed to comply with European Health and Safety standards, those products are potentially less reliable and could pose a safety risk. Be aware of the CE marking when purchasing electrical products. The descriptions above of false CE markings are not comprehensive; be aware that new variations may appear on the market.

Warranty
Limited Warranty
This limited warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may have other
legal rights, which vary from state to state (or by country or province).
NextbaseTM does not exclude, limit or suspend other legal rights you may have
under the laws of your state (or country or province). For a full
understanding of your rights you should consult the laws of your state,
country or province.
Nextbase Liability extends to the cost of the Dash Cam alone. Any recordings
which have not taken place or recoverable from the SD card for whatever reason
are not covered by the product warranty. No liability for costs incurred due
to corrupt, missing, erased video recordings will be accepted. No claims for
additional costs outside the cost of the Dash Cam itself will be accepted.
Nextbase products are warranted to be free from defects in materials or
workmanship for one year from the date of purchase, with batteries warranted
to be free from defects in materials or workmanship for six months from the
date of purchase. Within this period, Nextbase will, at its sole option,
repair or replace any components that fail in normal use. Such repairs or
replacement will be made at no charge to the customer for parts or labour,
provided that the customer shall be responsible for any transportation cost.
This Limited Warranty does not apply to: (i) cosmetic damage, such as
scratches, nicks and dents; (ii) consumable parts, such as batteries, unless
product damage has occurred due to a defect in materials or workmanship; (iii)
damage caused by accident, abuse, misuse, water, flood, fire, or other acts of
nature or external causes; (iv) damage caused by service performed by anyone
who is not an authorised service provider of Nextbase; (v) damage to a product
that has been modified or altered without the written permission of Nextbase,
or (vi) damage to a product that has been connected to power and/or data
cables that are not supplied by Nextbase, or (vii) damage to a product that
has been connected to 12Vdc directly, having cut off the Cigarette Lighter
plug which contains the 12/24Vdc to 5Vdc adaptor. In addition, Nextbase
reserves the light to refuse warranty claims against products or services that
are obtained and/or used in contravention of the laws of any country.
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, the warranties and remedies
contained in this limited warranty are exclusive and in lieu of, and Nextbase
expressly disclaims, all other warranties and remedies, whether express,
implied, statutory, or otherwise, including without limitation any implied
warranty of merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose, statutory
remedy or otherwise. This limited warranty gives you specific legal rights,
and you may have other legal rights, which vary from state to state and from
country to country. If implied warranties cannot be disclaimed under the laws
of your state or country, then such warranties are limited in duration to the
duration of this limited warranty. Some states (and countries and provinces)
do not allow limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts, so the above
limitation may not apply to you.
In no event shall Nextbase be liable in a claim for breach of warranty for any
incidental, special, indirect or consequential damages, whether resulting from
the use, misuse or inability to use this product or from defects in the
product. Some states (and countries and provinces) do not allow the exclusion
of incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitations may not apply
to you.
If during the warranty period you submit a claim for warranty service in
accordance with this Limited Warranty, then Nextbase will, at its option: (i)
repair the device using new parts or previously used parts that satisfy
Nextbase’s quality standards, (ii) replace the device with a new device or a
refurbished device that meets Nextbase’s quality standards. Such remedy shall

warranty, whichever is longer.
