Using your dash camera in the car
When using your dash camera while driving it is essential that you drive with due
care and attention. Never modify the settings or program your dash camera while
driving. Only look at the screen when it is safe to do so. When mounting the dash
camera in your car make sure that it does not obscure your view or impede the
operation of any driving controls.
Battery
Your dash camera device uses a Li-polymer battery. Do not use it in humid, wet
or corrosive environments. Do not operate or store your dash camera in high
temperatures (>60°) or in direct sun light. Do not pierce or break the battery
casing.
Failure to follow these cautions will invalidate the warranty and may
cause the battery to leak acid, become hot, explode or ignite and
cause injury or damage.
If you come into contact with leaked battery acid wash the contact
area thoroughly and seek medical attention.
The Li-polymer battery contained in this unit must be recycled or
disposed of properly.
Do not dispose of in household waste or burn.
