Please consult your car service station for device installation
assistance to prevent the violation of your car warranty rules
and conditions.
Files protected from overwriting by the G-sensor are recorded
in a loop taking up 30% of the total storage space.
Files protected by pressing a special button use the same
storage space but cannot be overwritten.
It is strongly recommended to back up the recordings stored
on your memory card to a computer or other media to prevent
data loss (this happens when the memory card is full).

Note: Gazer H714 MVR must be connected to the car’s onboard
electrical system. For correct MVR installation, please contact
your car dealer or service station. To prevent the violation of
your car warranty rules and conditions, please consult with the
car service station authorized to perform warranty maintenance.
Connect the black wire (GND) to the car ground line. Connect the
yellow wire cable (BATT +) directly to +12V car battery terminal or

car’s +12V ACC power line (ACC power goes ON and OFF
automatically when the car engine is ON or OFF).
This connection guarantees that the MVR turns on and starts
recording automatically when your car engine starts. The MVR
continues recording for one hour (set by default) after the engine is
switched off and only then the system shuts down. You can change
these settings (recording duration after the engine is off) by pressing
«Auto-off time» and «Parking Mode» icons in the settings menu.

Usage
MVR installation
Warning! Wipe the surface of the windshield before installing. Make sure
the installation place is dry and clean. Do not install the mount on 3M
scotch tape at temperature below +5°C. Because of such low
temperature and the difference between the temperature inside the car
and outdoors, the 3M scotch will lose its adhesive properties and will not
be able to fix the mount properly.
Prior to installing, determine the exact
MVR position on the windshield. Mark the
installation place. Remember that once
the mount is installed on the car
windshield, you cannot change the
horizontal position of the device (side to
side), only vertical position (up and down)
can be changed afterwards.
Make sure that the device is installed
in a position from which hit can be
conveniently removed later. Fix the
mount so that other objects do not
prevent you from monitoring status
indicators, removing the memory card
or pressing any of the buttons.
By vertically turning the MVR frame point
the lens down at about 15°.
Remove the protective film from
3M tape.
Mount the device on the car windshield.
To remove the mount from the 3M
tape on the car windshield, take a
ruler or credit card and push it gently
between the mount and the
windshield.

You can use the MVR for security recordings when the car is parked.
ENG
When the ACC powers off the MVR will continue recording for the
period set in the «Auto-off time». Only after that will it shut down.
If «Never» setting is selected, the MVR continues recording and
shuts down only when the battery voltage drops below the value set
in the «Car battery protect» menu. This prevents the car battery
from complete discharge.
Note: Before adjusting the «Car battery protect» setting consult
with your car service station.
When the ACC power is off, the MVR can operate in two modes that can
be selected in the «Parking Mode» menu.
1. MVR operation with the «Parking Mode» off.
In this mode, once the ACC power is turned off, the MVR continues
recording for one hour (set as default) but its recording speed is
reduced to 10 frames per second to save space on your memory
card. If the G-sensor detects an impact, this recording will be
automatically protected to prevent accidental overwriting. The
G-sensor can be adjusted in the «Shock Sensitivity» menu where 10
is maximum value and 2 - minimum. Power consumption in this mode
is 90mA.
2. MVR operation with the «Parking Mode» on.
In this mode, once the ACC power is turned off, the MVR stops
recording the video and switches to the standby mode. If the
G-sensor detects an impact, the system will record a 60-90 sec
video at the speed of 30 frames per second. The resulting video file
will protect the file from overwriting. If the «Shock Sensitivity» is
disabled and the engine is off the G-sensor default sensitivity is 5.
Power consumption in this mode is 80mA.

Preparing Memory Card
Preparing MVR ready
Connecting with a display
One must adjust the MVR settings before using the device. The main
settings are optimal by default (factory settings) but in any case, you
must set the exact time and date. This is necessary for correct
functioning in the recording mode and further analysis of recorded
video sequences.
For the correct adjustment of settings, we recommend connecting the
MVR to a display. You can use the Gazer monitor, Gazer Rearview Mirror
with a built-in monitor, or any other display with a composite video input.
Do not connect the MVR to the power supply yet. First make sure that
all the indicators are off and then insert the memory card.
The memory card is inserted with connectors towards the display.
Connect the MVR to a display and plug in the power supply.
The recorder will ask to format the memory card if it is used for the
first time. This way the MVR will be able to write Gazer Player software
on the memory card for future video viewing.
If you want to access the setup menu, press the • REC button and stop
the recording first (the recording mode will take some time to shut
down as it is closing and saving the current file), then press and hold
the RIGHT button for 5 seconds. Use LEFT and RIGHT buttons while
navigating the menu, press OK to go to the submenu and select the
setting, long press the RIGHT button to exit from the menu.
Connecting without a display
Insert a memory card into the slot and connect the MVR to a power
supply. After a few seconds the recorder will turn on and ask to format
the memory card. In this case, the PWR (Red) indicator will be
constantly on and the V indicator (blue) will flash. To start formatting,
press the RIGHT button once and then click OK. The formatting
process will take a few seconds, and then the MVR will automatically
switch to the recording mode. In this case, the indicator PWR (red) will
flash and the V (blue) indicator will be always on.
Before using the MVR, it is important to format your memory card
ENG
using specialized tools. We recommend using a free SD
Formatter utility. Use a search engine to find and download it
from one of many Internet resources or from the web portal
http://www.sdcard.org.
Formatting is necessary to optimize the memory card access
speed. The system formats the card in accordance with SD
Memory Card Format Specification, which allows the MVR to
access the card faster. This cannot be done with regular Windows
formatting tools. SD Formatter also (by selecting option of
Format Size Adjustment = ON) creates an optimal file system
structure (cluster size, etc.).
If you use an unformatted memory card, the MVR may fail to
record or record incorrectly (long pauses between the videos).
