take up to 10 minutes to find the three satellites required to achieve a stable

signal. Reception can also be affected by atmospheric conditions and the

proximity of buildings / trees obscuring the sky.

Turn iN-CAR CAM off and on to restart GPS search procedure.

Remove the protective lens cover, clean the lens, clean the windscreen

inside and out.

Remove the SD card and reformat to remove non-contiguous files.

For best recording use a branded class 10 type (30MB/s) SD card of

8 to 32GB recommended size. Playback PC may not be sufficient for the

playback software, try an alternative PC.

Ensure that “Record Audio” setting is turned ON within the Video Menu.
