KZ-2 DASH CAM

Introduction

The Muvi KZ2 Drive Cam (VDC-003-KZ2) is the perfect solution to capture your journey in 4K. This manual will show you how to set up and operate the camera.

Please read and follow this manual carefully to ensure that you maximise every capability of your camera. Keep this manual safe for future reference.

Disclaimer: Veho cannot guarantee that all incidents will be captured by the Muvi KZ2 Drive Cam.

Important!
Tips on capturing the best footage
  • Position the camera so that it does not distract or obstruct the driver’s view (we recommend behind the rearview mirror).
  • Ensure both the inside and outside of the windscreen are clean and dry so the mount adheres securely.
  • The camera’s view should not be obstructed, ensure it is within the ‘wiper zone’.
  • Angle the camera so the amount of sky in the camera view is reduced. Too much sky will cause the camera to overexpose and make the road appear darker.
Tips on memory card performance
  • Before using a new microSD card you will need to format the card using the camera, you can do this in the camera settings.
  • We recommend formatting your microSD card at least once every two weeks, this will ensure invisible memory is cleared and reduce the risk of file corruption. Formatting the card will completely wipe all data from the card, back up any files you wish to keep before formatting.
  • Switch the camera off before removing the microSD card to prevent any damage to the card.
  • The Muvi KZ2 supports microSD cards with up to 128GB capacity. We recommend using a U3 grade card from a well-known brand such as SanDisk, Toshiba, Samsung.

DO NOT try to adjust the camera position or try to access or change the camera settings whilst driving. Use the camera safely and according to the laws in your country. You use this camera at your own risk.
