User Manual

Introduction to your Dash Cam

This range of Nextbase™ Dash Cams has been designed specifically with ease of use in mind; it is recommended NOT to change the default settings, which have been carefully selected to give the best performance for day to day use.

Please check the firmware version of the Dash Cam, the version can be found in the Setup menu under System Info. The latest versions are available to download from our website, where you can download and update when necessary.

www.nextbase.com

First Time Use

Before you can use your Dash Cam, it is essential to make sure it is fully charged. Connect your Dash Cam via the USB port to a home power source such as a PC or home USB socket for approximately 2 hours.

Basic Operation

A U3 type Micro SD card is required to use this Dash Cam. This is due to the very large data rate generated by high resolution recording. For best results, we recommend using our Nextbase branded SD cards with your Dash Cam. For use with Rear Cam attached, a U3 Card is required. Your Nextbase Dash Cam is set to record video, in ﬁles of just 1 minute in length. This means that each video ﬁle is a manageable size should you need to download and send to your insurance company. Eventually your MicroSD card will ﬁll up with video ﬁles but don't worry, the camera automatically deletes the oldest ﬁle to make space for new recordings. This way you never run out of space and have plenty of driving data saved.

1. Tips for capturing best video footage:

1.1 Position the Dash Cam in the centre of the windscreen and ideally behind the rear view mirror so it is not a distraction to the driver.

1.2 Ensure that the area on the windscreen that the Dash Cam is looking through is clear of dirt and is within the wiper zone. This will ensure that your videos are as clear as possible.

1.3 Reduce the amount of sky in the picture, by angling the view of the camera towards the road. Too much sky will make the road appear darker due to the automatic exposure compensation.

1.4 Remove unnecessary items from your dashboard. If objects are placed on your dashboard these can cause reﬂections to be seen on the windscreen and these reﬂections may be captured during recording.

2. Tips for stable memory card performance:

2.1 Periodically format the memory card. Every 2-3 weeks we recommend that you format the memory card. This will wipe any ﬁles from the card and set it up afresh for continued use with your Dash Cam. Of course, you should only do this AFTER you've downloaded any ﬁles from the card that you may want to keep, as formatting the card will remove all content.

2.2 Format your memory card using the Dash Cam. This will make sure that the card is structured specifically for your camera. Within the Setup menu, select ‘Format SD Card’ and follow the on-screen instructions.

Typically a 16Gb card will store the last 45 minutes of driving footage.

The GPS will automatically adjust for Daylight Savings Time.

Automatic Start / Stop Technology

The Dash Cam will automatically power on and be ready to use once power is available. In some vehicles this will be when connections are made, for others the Dash Cam will power on once the ignition has been turned on. When power is cut off, the Dash Cam will perform an automatic shutdown process.

2.3 Switch off the Dash Cam before removing the SD card, to prevent the chance of damage being caused to the memory card or the ﬁles stored upon it.

Nextbase SD Cards

For best results, we strongly recommend using our Nextbase branded SD cards with your Dash Cam, available to purchase online from nextbase.com, or your nearest retailer. A card that is not made specifically for a Dash Cam may appear to work perfectly in the beginning, although failure tends to happen after prolonged use, this could be days, weeks, or months. In a worst-case scenario, you may only discover recording failure after your SD card fails to record a serious incident, therefore using a suitable SD card is imperative. See page 45 for more information on Nextbase SD cards.

Camera Legal Requirements Precaution

In some jurisdictions it could be considered an invasion of privacy rights to take or publicly display photographs or videos of people or their vehicles using this product. It is your responsibility to know and comply with applicable laws and rights to privacy in your jurisdiction and in any jurisdiction in which you may use this device. Video recordings made by this Dash Cam should be for personal use only.

Publication of the recordings on YouTube, the internet or other methods is subject to the data protection legislation and the requirements thereof must be adhered to. Such data protection legislation may prohibit the use and dissemination by you of Dash Cam footage or may impose restrictions on it – we recommend that you check the legal requirements with your legal advisor before disseminating any Dash Cam footage.

If the Dash Cam is to be used within a UK commercial environment, i.e. truck use, then the CCTV regulations apply in addition to the Data Protection Act regulations. This includes labelling to identify the use of CCTV is taking place, the omission of Audio recording and informing the relevant authorities of who controls the data. For use in a commercial environment in non-UK countries, please refer and adhere to local regulations and requirements. For non-UK operation, specific legal requirements may apply where Dash Cams are to be used in a commercial or employment context - again, we recommend that you check the legal requirements with your legal advisors prior to commencing use of Dash Cams in commercial or employment contexts.

G Sensor Notice

The G Sensor within the Dash Cam measures forces exerted upon it, with reference to one g which is the nominal force exerted upon us when stationary on the earth's surface. The G Sensor will also trigger to protect any recording currently in progress, if a pre-determined threshold of force is exceeded. The G Sensor protection will be adversely affected if the Dash Cam is NOT mounted in the vertical direction i.e. with the lens pointing to or from the direction of travel. G Force information derived from a G Sensor is not warranted to be totally accurate at all times, as it is derived from the G Sensor through a sampling method over time. The precision of the G Sensor value recorded depends upon when the acceleration took place at the instance of the sample taken. The thresholds to trigger the video protection rely upon a trigger value being exceeded between two successive samples, in any one of the three G Sensor axis. If the Automatic G Sensor protection does NOT trigger during an event, then the Protect button should be pressed, in order to protect the file. Protecting the file can also be performed using the Playback function upon the Dash Cam (models with LCD screens), or indeed through the MyNextbase Connect™ App for applicable Wi-Fi models.

- For best results, we recommend using Nextbase branded SD cards.

- Do not remove or insert the memory card when the Dash Cam is turned on. This may damage the memory card, or recordings within.

2. Remove dust cover from the Dash Cam

Remove the dust cover that is located on the front of the Dash Cam to gain access to the mounting point.

To remove the dust cover, lift the cover away from the body of the Dash Cam.

Note:

- If the Dash Cam is not to be used for a period of time replace the dust cover to help keep the components free of dust or other contaminants.

3. Attach the mount to the Dash Cam

622 GW

Place the mount in space under the dust cover on the Dash Cam. Once in place, magnets within the mount and camera will hold the two parts together.

See page 20 for more information on changing mounts attachments.

4. Connect car power cable

Connect the supplied car power cable to the Dash Cam Mount’s USB port. Do NOT connect the power cable to the USB port on the Dash Cam.

5 Plug the power cable into the 12-24Vdc outlet of your vehicle

The Dash Cam will automatically power on and start recording once power is available. In some vehicles this will be when connections are made, for others the Dash Cam will power on once the ignition has been turned on.

Also available to purchase is a Nextbase™ Hardwire Kit. This connects your Dash Cam directly to the vehicle’s fusebox to power it leaving your 12Vdc outlet available for Phone / Sat Nav charging. The Nextbase Hardwire Kit includes the necessary 12-24Vdc to 5Vdc convertor and battery protection circuitry. See page 9-10 of the Nextbase Accessories Manual for further information.

Route the power cable around the windshield to the 12-24Vdc socket, ensuring that your view is not obstructed, and that the cable is not a distraction. Use the cable fitting tool (bottom, left) included with your Dash Cam to more easily open the lining of your vehicle, within which you can stow the cable. See page 18, ‘Positioning your Dashcam’ for more details.

Note:

- Do NOT wire the Dash Cam directly to a 12Vdc supply by cutting the cigarette plug off the end of the cable, or permanent damage will result.
