Q&A
Q: Why does the blue light on the drive controller not light up (or
sometime)?
A: Please check if your drive recorder has GPS function. Blue light will
stay OFF for the host device without GPS function; this is a normal
phenomenon. For the host device with GPS function, blue light not
lighting up means GPS is positioning. GPS signal will be affected by
such factors as weather conditions, tunnels, and basements; the
signal might be strong, weak or no signal, and this phenomenon will
not affect the function of drive recorder, please be patient or go to
open space to complete positioning.
Q: Why does the red light on the drive recorder keep blinking?
A: This is the signal indicating error on the memory card. Please check
whether your memory card is installed properly (See page09);
otherwise, the data of the memory card is possibly full, please switch
on the Recycle Record of the host device (See page24), and press
FORMAT button on the host device (See page34) to solve the issue.

Q: How to achieve the best quality resolution?
A:
1. Keep the windshield and the lens clean (Please see page46).
2. Please adjust the following parameters in Image Param (Please
see page15).
Video resolution 1920x1080 30P
Digital effect Vivid
EV -1.0
Contrast Hard
Sharpness Hard
Q: Why doesn‘t lights of the drive recorder react after inserting the
power?
A: Possibly it could be caused by the following circumstances:
1.Vehicle not started. 2. Vehicle power cable falls off, or bad
connection. 3. Check if the fuse of the vehicle power is broken. If the
abovementioned methods do not solve the problem, please contact
our dealer or factory for product repair.
Q: How to play MOV file? Why is there only audio but no video?
A: It is because your computer does not have the encoder needed to
play high definition video. Please search “K-Lite Codec Pack” in search
engines, download and install the encoder; you will be able to play
the file after installation.
45
Page 47
Q: How to maintain the lens? Can we use alcohol on it?
A: Please do not use toilet paper, alcohol, stain cleaner, and gasoline,
etc. to rub the lens. On the lens is a thin plating film, which is to
prevent unnecessary light wave from entering the camera. Improper
rubbing will cause tear or scar on the lens.
Please use lens wiper or clothe with minimum clean liquid specified
for lens and wipe in concentric circles.
