2 Answers
To adjust a dash cam, follow these steps: 1. Select a resolution of 1080p; 2. Choose a recording duration of five minutes to avoid too many files; 3. Turn off in-car audio recording to protect personal privacy; 4. Enable parking monitoring and motion detection features; 5. If using an external power source, turn off the dash cam after 24 hours to prevent battery drain. The functions of a dash cam include: 1. Protecting the driver's legal rights and avoiding extortion; 2. Providing accurate evidence for court cases involving road traffic accidents, ensuring fair sentencing and compensation; 3. Assisting traffic police in quickly and accurately handling accidents; 4. Reminding drivers not to violate traffic rules, thereby reducing the occurrence of accidents.
After buying a new car with a dash cam, the first thing I did was explore the settings. Hold the power button to turn it on, wait for the screen to light up, and enter the menu. Setting the resolution to HD 1080p is the most practical—images won’t be blurry. Calibrate the date and time, preferably connecting to GPS for automatic updates. Enable loop recording in 3-minute segments to automatically overwrite old footage, so you never worry about running out of storage. Set the microphone volume to medium to avoid harsh wind noise. Turn on parking mode as needed—useful for long trips but usually off to save battery. Test it by recording a short drive and reviewing the clarity. During car maintenance, check the dash cam settings to prevent time errors or malfunctions. Once properly set up, you can drive with peace of mind, knowing the footage will be invaluable when needed.
