Does the Fengon 580 have a dash cam?
2 Answers
The Fengon 580 is equipped with a dash cam. A dash cam is a device that records images, sounds, and related information during vehicle travel. After installing a dash cam, it can record the entire driving process, including video and audio, which can serve as evidence in the event of a traffic accident. Precautions for installing a dash cam: Before installation, carefully read the manual to fully understand the buttons and functions. Choose an installation location that does not obstruct the driver's view—the best position is the upper center of the windshield, near the rearview mirror. Ensure it is within the wiper's working area; otherwise, during rain or snow, the exterior glass may become dirty, and the wiper may not clean it, leading to unclear footage. Adjust the dash cam's field of view so the lens faces forward, with the car's hood appearing at the bottom of the frame (but not exceeding one-third of the screen). The A-pillars on both sides of the car should be positioned at the lower edges of the frame. Dash cam motion detection function: The motion detection feature is designed to record only when there is movement in the frame. However, in situations with minimal movement, such as traffic jams or waiting at traffic lights, enabling this feature may cause the camera to miss critical footage. Therefore, it is recommended to turn off this function while driving. For loop recording duration, dash cams offer settings of 1, 3, 5, 10, or 15 minutes. For long-distance driving, a 10-minute loop setting is recommended.
The Fengguang 580 SUV typically does not come with a built-in dashcam as a factory-installed feature, so you'll need to install one yourself after purchasing the vehicle. Having driven the Fengguang 580 for a while, I've found a dashcam particularly useful—for instance, in minor collisions, it can capture footage to prove liability, preventing false accusations. I recommend opting for a compatible rearview mirror-style or discreetly hidden dashcam. Installation is quite straightforward, either by plugging it into the cigarette lighter or using the OBD port, and you can even view real-time footage via an app. It adds a sense of security while driving, especially during rainy days or at night when visibility is poor, so choosing a resolution of 1080p or higher is advisable. Regularly backing up video files to your phone or cloud storage is also crucial—don’t wait until the memory card is full to discover any issues. In short, while the car doesn’t include one by default, adding a dashcam significantly enhances driving safety.
