Frequently Asked Questions - 10GW Praktica

How do I install the Praktica 10GW dash cam?

Attach the suction mount to your windshield, insert a micro SD card (up to 32GB, Class 10), connect the car charger, and mount the camera. Adjust the lens angle and turn on the device.

What video resolution does the 10GW record?

The Praktica 10GW records in Full HD 1080p at 30 frames per second for clear and detailed footage.

How do I enable loop recording?

Loop recording is enabled by default. It overwrites the oldest footage when the SD card is full. You can adjust the clip length (1/2/3/5 minutes) in the settings menu.

Does the camera have night vision?

Yes, the 10GW is equipped with built-in IR LEDs for improved recording in low-light conditions. However, it is not full darkness – some ambient light is recommended.

How do I format the SD card?

Go to the menu, select 'Format', and confirm. Format the card inside the camera, not on a computer. Regular formatting prevents file errors.

Can I use the dash cam while parked?

Yes, the 10GW supports parking mode. It will automatically start recording when motion or impact is detected, using the built-in battery or hardwire kit (not included).

The camera is not turning on. What should I do?

Check the power cable connection and ensure the car charger is working. Try a different USB cable or power source. If using battery, charge it via USB for at least 2 hours.

How do I view recorded videos?

Remove the SD card and insert into a computer, or connect the dash cam via USB cable. Videos are saved in .mov format in the DCIM folder. You can also play them on the camera's 2-inch screen.

What is the G-sensor function?

The G-sensor detects sudden impacts or sharp turns. It automatically locks the current video file, preventing it from being overwritten during loop recording.

Where can I download the user manual?

The manual is available for free download on notice-facile.com in PDF format. You can also request a translated version via email.
