01 Product Description
DR-03’s lightweight stature surpasses all similar products available on the market,
allowing for easy installation in your car, bicycle or motorcycle to keep a record of your
journey; it can also be installed in your house to be used for home security. In
addition to having outdoor recording and GPS functions, DR-03 is also combined with
a map, keeping a faithful record of your life. When recording photos and videos,
although images are kept, however, you can only keep other information by adding
additional remarks yourself as clues; as time passes by, these memories also become
harder and harder to recall.
DR-03 not only has recording functions, but also combines the precise information of
GPS, allowing users to easily and accurately combine images with location and other
geographic and travel information, faithfully recording your journey and making your
memories richer and more complete!

03 Caution Note
1. GPS Accuracy
The Global Positioning System (GPS) technology is developed and managed by the
U.S. Department of Defense. Based on policy or national security considerations, the
U.S. has the right to adjust the positioning accuracy of this system without prior
announcement. Users must consider the surrounding environment and judge when it is
appropriate to use this system in order to maintain personal safety.
2. Signal Reception
The GPS satellite receiver chip is located at the end of the main device body. When
used in a car, some car’s windshield or the material of the window film might affect the
product’s satellite signal reception ability; also, the signal source of a speeding radar
detector might interfere with the GPS signal as well and affect the operation of this
product.
3. Positioning Floating
When you are at a fixed location, your position on the device map might be floating.
This is because the satellite signal is unstable when there are buildings nearby and
because Google Maps is open source software and therefore could not lock onto your
location. Please rest assured as this is a normal condition.
4. Battery Usage
Battery usage time differs from brand to brand; after testing with a 1000mAh rechargeable battery, the usage time is approximately 2 hours.

06
Caution Note
5. Memory Condition (If File Overwrite is not checked, the device will beep)
When the memory card capacity has less than 175MB remaining, the recording
indicator will flash quickly and the buzzer will beep three times every two minutes until
the memory card only has 1MB left, then the system will force itself to shut down.
When the memory card capacity is <=32MB, this means that the memory card capacity
left is not enough to start recording a new file, and the system will be forced to shut
down. During this time if the user still tries to turn the device on, the system will still
force itself to shut down after it has started up.
6. Low Power Warning
When the voltage is less than 2.2 volts, the low power indicator (green) will start to flash
once every 0.5 seconds and the buzzer will beep three times; this warning will repeat
itself once every two minutes. When the voltage is less than 2 volts, the product will
automatically shut down. The number of times the warning repeats also differs between
different brands of batteries; it usually repeats between 2-5 times.
7. Video File
The system’s default file size for every video file is 175MB with a length of 10 minutes;
the file extension is AVI files.
