Frequently Asked Questions - CDR 820C COBRA
How do I install the Cobra CDR 820C dashboard camera?
Clean your windshield area, attach the suction mount, press it firmly to secure, then slide the camera onto the mount. Connect the car charger to the 12V socket and route the cable neatly along the windshield.
What is the maximum memory card size supported?
The CDR 820C supports Micro SD cards up to 32GB. Use a Class 10 card for reliable Full HD recording. Format the card in the camera before first use.
Does the camera have night vision?
Yes, it features an enhanced low-light sensor and infrared LEDs to improve image quality in dark conditions, though it is not military-grade night vision.
How does loop recording work?
Loop recording automatically overwrites the oldest footage when the memory card is full, allowing continuous recording without manual intervention. Important clips are tagged by the G-sensor and are not overwritten.
Can I use the camera in parking mode?
Yes, the CDR 820C has a parking mode that uses motion detection or impact detection to start recording while the car is parked. It requires a continuous power supply (hardwire kit recommended).
How do I view recorded videos?
You can watch videos directly on the built-in 2.7-inch LCD screen, or play them on your computer via the USB connection. Use the playback menu to navigate files.
What is the battery life?
The internal 200mAh battery provides about 5-10 minutes of standby or temporary backup if power is lost. The camera is mainly designed for permanent connection to a power source.
How do I update the date and time?
Go to the system menu in the settings, select 'Date/Time', and adjust using the control buttons. The timestamp will be embedded in the video file.
Why does my camera keep turning off unexpectedly?
Check if the car charger cable is securely connected, and ensure the power outlet receives power while the car is turned on. If using battery only, the camera will shut down after a few minutes to protect the battery.
How do I clean and maintain the camera?
Use a soft, dry microfiber cloth to clean the lens and the LCD. Avoid excessive moisture. It is recommended to format the memory card every 4-6 weeks to prevent file corruption and ensure smooth recording.
