Notice
1. The user menu is to be set up in non-video mode. If the device is in video
mode, please proceed only after stopping the video recording.
2. Memory Card: Using a new MicroSD card always requires formatting it to
your device. Regularly clear the memory card, as continuous video recording
for an extended period of time may produce some protected files that are not
subject to long-term protection (these files may not be overwritten during
loop recording) and some storage fragments, which must be cleared regularly in
order to save usable storage space.
3. Time-lapse photography should not be enabled while driving. This function
captures images more slowly than normal but plays in speed-up mode, which may
affect the integrity and continuity of your video.
4. On-board Charger: The standard input voltage is configured to 12V. If a
voltage greater than 12V, contact store of purchase or our customer care via
care@rexingusa.com to replace it with a replacement charger.
5. The features described in this operation manual are available for all
products of the same type. The device you buy may be a model with optional or
additional functions. Menu operations may vary. Please refer to your actual
product.
6. Pay attention to the mounting position, which must not interfere with
driving or lead to unsafe driving operation. Make sure it is safely secured.
7. A standard 6-meter cable is provided for the rearview camera. It is not
recommended to install this type of dash cam if your car is larger than the
connection cable range.

Get Started
Memory Card Installation
Step 1. Insert a Memory Card You will need to insert a memory card before
beginning recording. Push the memory card into the slot until it locks in
place.
The M2 MAX PRO dash cam accepts memory cards with a maximum capacity of 256GB.
Depending on the memory card’s manufacturer and type, some cards may not be
compatible with the dash cam. Using an incompatible card may damage the
device, the memory card, or corrupt the data stored on it. For reliable
operation, use a Class 10 memory card with a capacity of at least 32GB.
Note: DO NOT insert or remove a memory card while the device is in operation.
It is recommended that you reformat the memory card every time images are
transferred to the computer, or at least once a month.
Reformatting a memory card keeps important elements of data and also a cleaned
file structure which helps to prevent error messages and missing images.
Reformatting also restores the memory card, which can help prevent it from
becoming corrupted.
8
Step 2. Formatting the Memory Card
1. Tap the icon to stop recording 2. Tap the icon to access settings 3.
Toggle down to Format 4. Tap OK to format the card
Please format the card on the dash cam before using it. Before formatting a
memory card, always remember to make backup copies of all important data
stored on the device. The manufacturer’s warranty does not cover loss of data
resulting from user actions.
Format SD Card
Formatting your SD card will delete all stored data. Sure you want to
continue

Cancel
Note
Removing the memory card
Before removing a memory card from your dash cam, you must first unmount it
for safe removal.
1. Tap the icon to stop recording 2. Press and hold the power button to turn
off the device 3. Gently push the memory card in and let go until it releases
Do not remove the memory card while the device is transferring or accessing
information. Doing so can result in data loss, corruption, or damage to the
memory card or device. Rexing is not responsible for losses that result from
the use of damaged memory cards, including the loss of data.

Dash Cam Installation
1. Strap the dash cam to the rearview mirror of your vehicle with the rubber
mounting strap. Adjust the angle of the cameras to ensure that it captures
your desired view.
2. Mount the rear camera as shown below and then connect the rear camera to
the main unit. Carefully route the power cable around the door and tuck in
under the trim. Rear camera wiring options Connected to the reversing light
A B
The rearview camera has two wire routing options as shown in the above figure.
The first part of both options is characterized with concealing the wire
routing against the edges of the door(s).
The device is configured with a streaming media rearview camera that provides
clear traffic view behind the car. To obtain clearer and more intuitive
images, it is recommended to mount the camera above the license plate (as
shown by option B).
3. The device will be automatically be powered on when plugged into a 12V
accessory socket or cigarette lighter and received a charge (i.e.: the vehicle
is started). To turn the device on manually, press and hold the Power button
for 3 seconds until the welcome screen appears. The dash cam will
automatically start recording when powered on.
10
4. The red wire of the rear camera cable provides a 12 Volt power to your
rear camera. It is not necessary to connect the red wire to the power supply.
But if you want to use the parking assist function, it’s recommended to
connect to the power source of your reverse lights, so the screen will display
the image of the rear camera automatically when the vehicle is in reverse. If
you need more installation information, please reach out to care@rexingusa.com
for assistance.
Red
Note: The optional rearview camera is mounted on the rear of the car. Pay
attention to its orientation during installation. Plug the rearview camera
connector into the corresponding port of the dashcam once the installation is
completed. Adjust the position of the lens to ensure that it aligns horizontal
with the ground. Start the engine to check the video functionality of the
device.
5. Plug the GPS module into the GPS port and secure the module to a position
close to A-pillar of the car. The antenna receiver side (the side without 3M
adhesive) faces the outside and the side with 3M adhesive faces down. It
should be properly secured. Location of GPS Module Power Supply Wiring

6. When connecting the charger to the vehicle’s 12V DC outlet, be sure to use
only a Rexing-approved charger. The charger should be at least a 2.5A charger
which is designed and supplied specifically for use with your device. Using an
incompatible charger can cause serious personal injury or damage to your
device.
Note: Due to unstable voltages caused by starting the car engine, a voltage
fluctuation in some vehicles may be especially obvious. If a flashing screen
or some other unforeseeable operating problem occurs when you start the
engine, it is recommended to unplug the device from the charger before
starting the engine, and then reconnect it after the engine is running.
Note: · Press the Power Button to turn On or Off the screen · Press and hold
the Power Button for 3 seconds to turn the device on or off

Outline
RCW refers to Rear-End Collision Warning. This warning system will trigger an
alert when an object or vehicle is detected by the rear camera. ADAS, or
Advanced Driver Assistance Systems, enhance vehicle safety and support the
driver during operation. Key features include forward collision and lane
departure warnings. BSD refers to Blind Spot Detection, which monitors in real
time any vehicle in the blind spots on both sides during driving. It gives an
alert so as to reduce the risk of traffic accidents that are likely to occur
when you intend to shift to another lane. It is also called LCA (Lane Change
Assist). RCW and BSD systems may be interfered with by sunlight, inadequate
lane lines, rain, and fog, Certain impacts may be affected by these
inaccuracies, and some collisions may not be avoidable. Currently, the RCW
provides a rate of accuracy between 80 to 90 percent during the daytime and 60
to 70 percent at night. BSD provides a rate of accuracy around 90 percent
during the daytime and around 80 percent at night.
Disclaimer: The system is a safe driving assistant system and it cannot be
used as a proof for the liability of traffic accidents.
ADAS / RCW / BSD Calibration
The Rexing M2 Pro MAX is equipped with an auto-calibration feature that
activates during the first few minutes of driving, optimizing device
performance.

This feature is on when you see the illuminated
icon in the status bar
on the video recording interface, and it is off when you see the
grayed-out
icon. When the parking monitor is activated, its standby
state will be activated after the engine is turned off. When the car is
shocked by an external force and the sensor detects the impact, the
system will begin video recording (Intelligent hardwire kit required).
The characteristics and precautions of the parking monitor are as the follows:
1. With the use of the smart hardwire kit (sold separately). After the car
engine is turned off, the smart hardwire kit detects the power loss and sends
a command to the host device. The system enters a standby state. The Type C
plug must always be kept connected to the USB port of the device so as to
ensure a constant power supply to the smart hardwire kit.
2. In parking mode, the dash cam will turn on, record a 15s video, lock the
video, and then turn off again. When a recording is started, the screen does
not light up and there is no booting sound.
18
3. When the engine is restarted and the parking monitor has been activated, a
prompt will be immediately indicated as shown below: Notice Crash happened
during parking. Please check the video.
4. Monitoring files are saved in the folders VIDEO_F_LOCK and VIDEO_R_LOCK.

Option 1
Vibration Detection Please select your preferred mode from the camera
settings, it will allow the dash cam to switch to parking mode automatically
if the vehicle’s engine turns off and switch back to the normal recording
after vehicle’s engine turns on. Rexing Smart Hardwire Kit with Type C port is
required (Package Included).

This feature will allow the dash cam to switch to parking mode automatically
if the vehicle’s engine turns off and switch back to the normal recording
after the vehicle’s engine turns on.

dash cam WITHOUT connecting a smart hardwire kit. They may cause a
malfunction.
22
Gravity Sensing Record The Gravity Sensing detects significant or sudden
movement (such as an impact or collision), it will trigger an event recording.
We suggest setting the “Gravity Sensing” to High sensitivity for Parking Mode
Recording.
Note If you do not use the parking mode function, please change the Gravity
Sensing sensitivity to low. Otherwise, the video will easily be locked and the
video cannot be deleted by the loop recording function. This will cause the
memory card to be full of locked videos and cause the recorder to fail to work
normally.
Option 2
Motion Detection To use this feature, you need to connect it with a Rexing
Intelligent Hardwire Kit with type C port (UPC: 810046604090, sold
separately). Make sure that the Parking Mode is turned off on your dash cam,
otherwise it may cause a malfunction.
Once the sensor had detected MOTIONS. The intelligent hardwire kit will power
up the dash cam automatically and start recording until the MOTION is cleared.

5. Backup Files If you intend to keep important and memorable videos and
pictures for a long time, we suggest that you make a copy of each file from
