Before you can install the adhesive mount onto your windshield, the ambient temperature must be from 21° to 38°C (from 70° to 100°F).

1 Clean the windshield using water or alcohol, and a lint-free cloth.

The windshield must be free of dust, wax, oils, or coatings.

TIP: The adhesive is extremely sticky. Avoid touching the adhesive to the windshield until the mount is

properly positioned and aligned.

Dash Cam Recording

NOTICE

Some jurisdictions regulate or prohibit use of this device. It is your responsibility to know and comply with applicable laws and rights to privacy in jurisdictions where you plan to use this device.

The dash cam records video to the camera memory card (Installing a Memory Card, page 1). By default, the device immediately starts recording video when it turns on, and it continues recording until it is turned off. If the memory card is full, the device automatically deletes the oldest unsaved video to create space for new video.

When the option to promptly delete unsaved video is enabled, the device continually deletes unsaved video more than three minutes old and deletes all unsaved video each time it is powered off. This feature is available only for specific regions. When the camera is set to a supported region, you can enable or disable this feature in the camera settings (Camera Settings, page 17).

You can save a video recording to prevent it from being overwritten or deleted (Saving Unsaved Video Footage,

page 8).
