INSTRUCTION MANUAL
2 x 1080P FULL HD DUO DASHCAM
Congratulations on your purchase of your new Cansonic UltraDuo Z2 camera! We’d like to thank you for your purchase. We strive to bring you the highest quality products, allowing you to capture every memory. We know you’ll love using your Cansonic UltraDuo!
With new technology readily available, the creators of Cansonic have developed an easy to use camera for everyday use. The Cansonic UltraDuo Z2 allows its user to record files in 1, 3, or 5 minute lengths. These files are easy to download to your home desktop or personal laptop. In most instances, the video files are easily played on your mobile device. While most cameras traditionally use the entire capacity of the Micro SD card until it is removed, CANSONIC automatically deletes the oldest file to create space for the new video.
Cansonic UltraDuo Z2 offers three modes:
1. Video Mode: Video mode will set to default when camera is active.
2. Photo Mode: The UltraDuo Z2 setting takes still photographs.
3. Playback Mode: Users can view all previously recorded videos and photos taken.
EASY TO USE
The Cansonic UltraDuo Z2 lets users adjust camera settings to get the perfect shot. For a great photo every time, here are a few tips from the designers:
FEATURES:
Automatic Start/Stop Technology: Maintain full focus on the road! The vehicles ignition will let the camera turn on while connected to your vehicles cigarette lighter socket. When the vehicle is turned off, the camera will automatically shut down, preserving camera power for those moments you are not connected to a direct line of power.
1. Reduce the amount of sky in the picture. By adjusting the camera towards the road, the automatic exposure compensation will be focused on the road and not the light from the sky.
2. Position the camera in the center of the dash. If you place the camera behind the rearview mirror, you will avoid all distractions from the road.
3. Remove any objects that will obstruct your shot such as the protective lens cover. Clear vision will allow you to record everything in one shot.
ADDITIONAL TIPS
Full optimization of memory card:
1. Before removal of the memory card from the UltraDuo Z2, be sure to turn off the camera. Leaving the camera on while removing its memory card may lead to eased or corrupt files.
2. Format memory card to UltraDuo Z2 settings by clicking MENU button twice, then choosing the format option. You will now be able to fully use all the memory power your Micro SD card is set to hold.
3. By reformatting your memory card every 2-3 weeks, your memory card will continue to be fully utilized. Only do this AFTER you've downloaded any files from the card to your computer, as formatting the card will remove all content.
