Function introduction

1. Motion Detection: in standby, detect object is moving front of camera, camera will record video automatically, press OK button to stop and turn off the function
2. Loop recording: to select video time in 1/3/5 minutes, it will delete the first file automatically to keep recording

3. G-sensor: It is one of the most important functions of a car camera. It is a sensor that evaluates all the forces that act on the car while driving and maneuvering on the road, and as a result of road incidents. In a situation where the forces detected by the sensor are higher than those in normal use, sensor sends a signal to the camera and blocks the recorded video from being deleted. For example, in the event of a collision by another car, or a collision while parking, the G-Sensor's response automatically saves and blocks the recording. Thanks to this function, we have irrefutable evidence of who was at fault on the road and what were the circumstances of the event, and thus may be used as possible evidence in a case for compensation or proving guilt.

4. Parking mode: turn on Parking mode in menu. Than in standby mode, once camera detect any impact, it will turn on automatically, record and secure the video.
