MEMORY CARD
* Memory Card required for operation
The NAVC-703FHD requires a Micro SD card (not included) to record video / image content. (see page 8
for a table showing SD card capacity and the relevant amount of video / image content able to be stored).
For optimal performance, we recommend using a minimum Class 4 Micro SD card (one of the most
common types) to ensure fast data transfer rates.

Power on/off function (auto on/off)
To turn on the NAVC-703FHD, press and hold the power button on the side of the device. To turn off,
press the power button.
Note: The current video will be saved automatically if you are in the middle of a recording and you need to
turn the camera off.
When connected to the 12v DC socket (cigarette socket) of your car, the NAVC-703FHD will turn ON and
OFF automatically when the car’s ignition is turned ON or OFF. If the NAVC-703FHD does not turn off
immediately it means the device is completing the file save process before turning OFF (usually, only a
few seconds).
If the 12v socket is “constant on” (like in some European vehicles), then the NAVC-703FHD will need to be
turned ON and OFF manually using the power button
Whilst connected to the car’s 12V DC socket (or from a powered USB hub or PC USB port) the LED
indicator will glow red (battery is charging) and will turn off once the battery is fully charged.
Auto Record when turned ON
When the NAVC-703FHD is turned ON (either by pressing the power button or by “Auto ON”) the device
will automatically begin recording. To stop recording, press the OK button or disconnect the power cable.
Installation on the car windscreen
The NAVC-703FHD works best when mounted centrally and high up on the windscreen (typically behind
or close to the rear vision mirror). Use the supplied windscreen suction mount to affix the NAVC-703FHD
to the windscreen and then adjust the mount until you can see a clear view of the road ahead on the LCD.
Recording
Turn on the NAVC-703FHD. Recording should start automatically. If not press the “OK” button. When
recording, the recording time and red recording “Dot” will appear on the LCD screen and the LED will
flash. The recorded file is saved onto the Micro SDHC Card. Stop recording by either pressing the OK
button or turning the car ignition off (stopping power to the device)
In the event of an incident / accident – STOP the Recording.
- Due to the “cycle recording” nature of this technology, older recorded files will be overwritten (depending on
the chosen resolution settings and the memory capacity of the Micro SD card). For example a 2GB SD card at
HD resolution will only offer you 20 minutes of record time before the files (2 or 5 or 15min sizes) start to get
overwritten
- Should you wish to KEEP the video footage of an incident from not being overwritten, stop the recording soon
after an incident has occurred (Either press “OK” or disconnect the power or remove the Micro SD card).
- Alternately use a larger capacity SD card or lower the recording resolution (eg; a 32GB SD card at VGA
resolution will offer you 640 minutes of record time) or otherwise use a second Micro SD card as a backup.

USB Connection
Connect the NAVC-703FHD to a Windows (XP or 7) PC with the USB cable (included). Under “My
computer” or “Windows Explorer” you should see a drive which will resemble a “Removable Disk (?:)”
(like a USB Flash drive or Hard drive). Recorded files are stored in the DCIM\Date\ folder, and the files are
named as the date and time of the recording. These files can be played back using Windows Media player
or a compatible .AVI media player or an image viewer (for images)
Note:
1) A Micro SDHC card must be inserted into the device before recording.
2) The NAVC-703FHD supports cycle recording in increments of 1/3/5/10 minutes. It will overwrite the
oldest video files with new ones. Depending on the size of the Micro SDHC card and the speed rating of
the card, there may be as much as a 3 second pause between a file finishing recording to when the
following file automatically starts recording. This pause time will not be recorded.
3) As the NAVC-703FHD has a DC5V input, please use the original car charger which will step down the
car’s 12V to 5VDC and fuse the circuit in the event of an overload.

the record cycle process. Ensure STOP THE RECORDING if you want to
keep a video/picture of an event otherwise it will be over written.
The device has frozen
/ stopped working.
Check the speed of your Micro SD card. We recommend class 4 for faster
transfer rates, especially If the record file size is bigger (say 10 min
recording increments at 720 HD).
Press the “reset” button with a paper clip to reset the settings back to
default
The date/time is

Ensure the windscreen and surface area of the suction cup is clean.
In wet or very hot weather, the suction cup mount may need to be
reapplied.
Can’t see the device
in my computer
Check the USB cable connection to the device and USB port. Try another
USB port, possibly directly to the PC/notebook (rather than through a USB
hub)
Once the wiring and installation of the NAVC-703FHD have been completed, please check the
following:
- With the car’s ignition on (or engine started), the red LED indicator on the NAVC-703FHD will light up and the
LCD screen should turn on. Recording should start automatically. This will indicate a successful installation –
- When the car’s ignition is turned off, the device should turn off within 20 seconds. If this doesn’t happen then
power is still being supplied to the car’s 12v socket and the device will need to be switched off manually.
