1. Hold the card by the edges and gently insert it into the slot with the label facing the
rear side of the recorder.
2. To remove card, gently push the top edge of the card inwards to release it, and pull it
out of the slot.
CAUTION:
DO NOT apply pressure to the centre of the memory card.
You are advised to use a Class 6 memory card with at least 8GB capacity. The

Navman does not guarantee the product’s compatibility with memory cards from all
manufacturers.
Before you start recording, please format the memory card to avoid malfunction

computer or on the recorder (by selecting Settings Menu > Format).
You are recommended to turn the device off before removing the memory card.

Using your recorder in a vehicle
1. Make sure that your car is parked on a level ground.
2. Follow the instruction below to mount your recorder in a vehicle securely.
3. Connect the car charger to the
cigarette lighter. Route the cables
through the top ceiling and the
A-pillar so that it does not interfere
with driving. Ensure the cable
installation does not interfere with
the vehicles airbags or other safety
features.

4. When adjusting the angle of mounting, make sure that the camera’s view is parallel
with the level ground, and the ground/sky ratio is close to 6/4.
5. When not using the recorder, follow the instruction below to remove the recorder from
the holder.
NOTE:
To ensure the highest quality recordings, you are advised to place the recorder near
the rear view mirror.
Select an appropriate location for mounting the device in a vehicle. Never place the
device where the driver’s field of vision is blocked.
If the car’s windscreen is tinted with a reflective coating, it may be athermic and
impact the GPS reception. In this instance, please mount your device where there is a
“clear area.”
The system will automatically calibrate the G sensor of the device during boot up.
To avoid G sensor malfunction, ALWAYS turn the device on after you mount it in the
vehicle properly.
