  Fix the cord in place with tape or the like so that it does not interfere with driving.

Precautions for Use

• Do not block the camera lens, get dirt on it, or place a reflective object near it.
• When LED traffic lights are recorded, video in which they appear to be flickering or flashing may be recorded. JVC KENWOOD assumes no responsibility with regard to the distinguishing or recording of traffic lights.
• If coating is used on the windshield of the vehicle, recording quality may be affected.
• There is no guarantee that the device can record video in all conditions.

Cleaning the Device

• When the device is dirty, wipe it with a dry silicone cloth or other soft cloth. If the device is very dirty, remove the dirt with a cloth with neutral cleaner on it and then wipe off the cleaner. Wiping the device with a hard cloth or using using a volatile substance such as thinner or alcohol may cause scratches, deformation, deterioration, or other damage.
• When the lens is dirty, gently wipe it with a soft cloth dampened with water. Rubbing the lens strongly with a dry cloth may cause scratches.

Driving Support Function

• The driving support function is for providing driving support to drivers and not for preventing accidents. Furthermore, it does not provide notifications of all hazards.
• Please observe the traffic rules to ensure safe driving by paying attention to the distance to the vehicle in front, your surroundings and driving conditions, and applying the brakes when necessary. Furthermore, operation is not completely guaranteed even when the device is used correctly as described in the instruction manual. Please note that JVC KENWOOD bears no responsibility whatsoever for any losses incurred as a result.
• Due to the specifications of the device, a warning sound is also played when you change lanes on roads because the lane departure warning function is not linked to the turn signals.

• The driving support function may not operate correctly in the following cases.

• Location where GPS signals cannot be received correctly, such as in tunnels or where there are many tall buildings

• When lanes cannot be correctly recognized as a result of deterioration of the road surface, reflection during rain, etc.
• When the vehicle in front cannot be recognized as a vehicle due to its shape or paint color, changes in the amount of light, etc.
• Changes due to weather (rain, snow, heavy fog, etc.), time of day (early hours of the morning, evening, night, etc.), light from behind, and traffic conditions (traffic jams, pedestrians, etc.)

Monitor Screen

• Do not apply a strong impact to the screen part. Doing so may cause a failure.
• Prevent direct sunlight from shining on the screen. Prolonged use while direct sunlight shines on the screen will result in the screen becoming hot, causing it to fail.
• If the temperature becomes extremely high or low, display may become slow or dark, or afterimages may be seen. These phenomena are characteristics of LCD screens and are not an indication of a failure. The monitor will recover when the temperature inside the vehicle returns to normal.

• Small dots may appear on the screen. This phenomenon is typical of LCD screens and is not an indication of a failure.

• Display may be difficult to see depending on the angle at which the LCD is viewed due to the characteristics of LCD screens, but this is not an indication of a failure.

GPS

GPS positioning begins when the power of the device turns on. Positioning may take about 5 minutes to complete depending on the GPS positioning conditions.
- GPS satellite signals cannot pass through solid materials (except glass). GPS positioning cannot be used in tunnels and buildings. Signal reception may be affected by conditions such as bad weather and dense overhead obstacles (e.g., trees, tunnels, viaducts, and tall buildings). Speed, position, and other information will not be displayed correctly when GPS satellite signals cannot be received.
GPS positioning data is reference values.
GPS is managed by the U.S. government, which assumes full responsibility for its performance. Changes to the GPS system may affect the accuracy of all GPS devices.

Precautions for using SD cards

• When using a commercially available SD card, also check the instructions supplied with the SD card.
• Be sure to format (initialize) an SD card with the device before use.
• SD cards have a product lifespan, such as the number of times that writing can be performed. It is recommended to replace the SD card with a new one regularly depending on the usage conditions.
• When inserting and removing an SD card, confirm the orientation, do not bend it, and do not apply a strong force or impact to it.
• Do not directly touch the contact part with a hand or metal. The stored data may be damaged or lost due to static electricity.
• Be sure to back up (copy) the required files in the SD card to a PC or other device. The saved data may be lost due to the usage conditions of the SD card. Please note that JVC KENWOOD cannot compensate for any damages arising from the loss of saved files.

Requests Regarding Disposal or Transferring Ownership of an SD Card

• Using the SD card format and deletion functions of this device or formatting with a function of a PC just changes the file management information and does not completely delete the data in a SD card. We recommend either physically destroying the actual SD card or using commercially available PC data deletion software or the like to completely delete the data in the SD card before disposal or transfer of ownership. Manage the data in SD cards at your own responsibility.

Folder and File Structure

Recorded data is organized into a folder for each item, and file names are assigned automatically in order using dates and file numbers.
