TURN ON /OFF YOUR CAMERA
You may turn on the camera by pressing the power button when external power (cigar charger or hardwire kit) already connected.
You may turn off the camera by holding the power button for 2 seconds.
The camera is also pre-configured to auto turn on and start recording once it receives power, e.g. when the engine is started with a cigar charger to power the camera.
The camera is also pre-configured to auto stop recording and turn off once it loses power, e.g. when the vehicle engine is stopped.
The camera is also pre-configured to auto turn off if it is in standby mode for a long time without any button operation.
There is no lithium battery built in the camera so it can’t be power on without external power supply.
STORAGE CARD PREPARATION
The camera supports single microSD card up to 512GB. It must be high speed microSD SDXC card to avoid storage problems. Kinds of High Endurance cards are recommended.
Dash cameras write data to the microSD card in high speed so there will be file segments created; it is recommended to re-format the microSD card monthly to keep the file system tidy.
Please be noticed the camera was pre-set to high bit rate recording so the lower speed storage card will cause many recording problems.
ROUTE CABLES
There are power cable and rear camera cable need to be connected to the front camera. The cables need to be routed into vehicle roof then power cable go down to cab through A pillar and the rear camera cable continue go to rear windshield. Cable clips and ZIP ties will be useful when you route the cables.
Please be noticed there is high frequency signal transferred on the rear camera cable so it should be routed far away from a remote control receiver or DAB/GPS antenna to avoid signal interference.
Please be noticed over bent or flatten on the rear camera cable can cause impedance change which will bring signal transmission incoherent.

TEMPERATURE
TEMPERATURE IN VEHICLE
When a vehicle parked in direct sunlight, the vehicle inside temperature will
dramatic increase in the first 10 minutes and then stable after 25 minutes
baking. Please refer the figure below to find out the temperature difference
between inside and outside of the vehicle.
The air temperature can achieve 70°C (158°F} or even higher in parked vehicles
under direct sunlight in summer, it is dangerous for all consumer electronics.
Expose a dash camera in strong sunlight with Motion Detection mode or Parking
Guard mode recording may cause the dash camera malfunction or damaged.
TEMPERATURE PROTECTION
The temperature protection function in this camera which shut the camera down
when the camera temperature reach 95°C (200°F) will help to reduce the risk
and still protect your vehicle all the time even under sunlight, with Parking
Guard or Motion Detection function.
Please be noticed the temperature protection is just a auxiliary method, keep
the camera recording in high temperature condition will be on yourself risk.
Air temperature & in vehicle temperature & camera mainboard temperature figure please notice this is a reference figure, the curves will be different in different condition.
MOUNTING
The dash camera is designed for easy& quick mounting to your windshield with VHB sticker pad.
1st, insert the camera to the sticker mount with power cable plugged into either the mount or camera body;
2nd, simulate the unit on your windshield with the camera powered on, rotate the camera vertically to find the best mounting location;
3rd, you may need to fit the wedge(s) if you want to mount at an offset location from the top center of the windshield; just screw the wedge(s) to the mount bracket or use the VHB pads in the accessory bag. (screws KB1 .4•6mm also in the accessory bag);
4th, clean the stick surface on both GPS mount and windshield with organic solvent such as alcohol or other, make sure there is no water or grease on the surfaces;
5th, stick the VHB sticker pad to the mount bracket or wedges, and attach to your windshield, hold the mount for a few seconds to ensure good adhesion;
6th, power on the camera and check the camera display again.
when you want to demount the camera, just slide the camera out from the mounting bracket; no need to take the sticker mount down from windshield.
When you want to remove the sticker mount from your windshield, please use the thin cord (in accessory bag) with a sawing action to cut between the VHB sticker and your windshield and pull the cord to break the mount off from your windshield; then remove the sticker residual with WD-40 spray.
Please don’t break off the sticker mount with a rigid crowbar, which may damage the sticker mount or your windshield.
If you have to place the camera offset from top center of windshield, you need to use the wedges to adjust the camera view direction. There are two wedges attached in accessory bag, one is 2° angle and another is 4° angle. With those you can mount the dash camera at a 2°, 4° or with both together 6° offset location. You can use the attached VHB pads or KB1 .4•6mm screws to mount the wedges to the sticker mount.
TIPS
If your VHB pads are run out, you can purchase 1.1 inch width 3M VHB heavy
duty mounting tape from local or internet and cut it to 1.45 inch long to
instead the original mounting pads.
It is recommended to be 0.06 inch thickness and black color.
POWER SOURCE
The dash camera can be powered by cigar lighter charger (standard accessory) or hardwire kit (optional accessory).
Cigar lighter charger is a easy & fast connecting method for cameras, the only thing you need to do is plug the charger into the cigar lighter socket in your vehicle. The camera will be powered once the vehicle engine started.
The disadvantage is cigar lighter charger is it will engage your cigar lighter socket, and maybe alignment difficulty for the long cable.
Hardwire kit is used to solve the problem above. The 12V/24V leads are connected to the car fuse or car battery and the SV lead is connected to your camera. The output power from Parking Guard Hardwire Kit can be constant to support the Parking Guard function of your camera. There is Battery Drain Protection in Parking Guard Hardwire Kit to protect the vehicle battery from drain.
You may need some professional skill to install the Parking Guard Hardwire Kit.
ACCESSORIES
All the accessories listed in this page are optional.
CPL filter
Reduce the reflection from shiny surface like vegetation, sweaty skin, water surface, glass, road, and let the natural color come through at the same time.
Some of the light coming from the sky is also polarized to give a more dramatic sky and high contrast clouds, rendering outdoor scenes crisper with deeper color tones.
Align the white line on CPL with the dot on camera and rotate for best reflection reducing effect.
CPL filter is highly recommended for mini0906 series cameras.
Parking Guard Hardwire Kit
The Parking Guard Hardwire Kit can be used on mini0906 and other cameras which support Parking Guard function, to protect your vehicle when it parked.
It also can be used as a high quality common hardwire kit on no Parking Guard function cameras, to power the camera and protect your battery from drain.
INPUT:12V/24V
OUTPUT: 5V 2.5A
Battery Drain Protection: (optional 4 levels)
11.8V /12.0V /12.2V /12.4Vor 23.6V /24.0V /24.4V /24.8V
optional Piggy-back Fuses for easy install.
Advanced Intelligent Power Management System
TROUBLESHOOTING
Camera stop record and turn off?
Please use a high speed microSD SDXC card, because the video stream (bit rate)
of high resolution video is huge, it is a big challenge for low quality card.
we recommend High Endurance cards for recording.
“File Error” prompt while playback a video?
The camera use a super capacitor as backup battery to save the last video when
engine stop, it can only power the camera for seconds; the capacitor need at
least 5 minutes to recharge to half-full. If you power on & off the camera
frequently there is not enough power in capacitor so the last file will be
corrupted. The File Error problem may happen after continual short driving.
Image is blurred?
Please check if there is dust, fingerprint or something else on the lens; use
the lens cleaner to clean the lens before using.
Please remember to remove the lens protecting film before first using.
And please notice the definition will be effected by extreme temperature;
there will be definition decrease when the camera inside temperature reach
70″C(158″F) at the meantime the vehicle air temperature is 40″C(104″F). Please
refer the temperature cure chart.
Camera and image freeze?
Please check the rear camera cable connection and the extending cable itself.
If there is bad connection or over-bent /flatten it will be a big impact to
the high speed digital signal transmission. And please make sure you are using
the qualified power source and qualified microSD storage card. An old card
with many bad section will also block the writing speed a lot.
Camera automatically re-boot?
Please check the power supply first. It is recommended to use the attached
cigar charger in packaging box or a qualified hardware kit to provide enough
power. The second possibility is a low quality or dying microSD card which can
not endure the big video flow. The temperature protecting function will auto
shut down the camera if the main-board is too hot and auto boot up when it is
cooling down, if you parked the vehicle under direct summer sunshine. And the
drain protecting of Parking Guard hardwire kit will cut off power supply also,
when it detected the vehicle battery voltage is lower than setting value, you
may set the protecting voltage lower.
Camera can’t power on?
Please check the power supply in advance. It is recommended to use the
attached cigar charger in packaging box which provide enough power. And you
may check if it can power on without rear camera. Please make sure the reset
button is not press & hold which will block the camera power. A firmware re-
upgrade may solve many slight strange problems.
How to perform a full private installation for parking recording?
it is recommended to use the Parking Guard hardwire kit to power the camera.
It will drive the camera to parking mode automatically after vehicle parked.
The camera will turn off LCD display and LED indicators automatically in
Parking Guard mode.
Any maintenance should be performed?
The camera record videos in high bit rate so there will be file segments
