Select an SD card with appropriate capacity to ensure normal storage function. Press and hold the power button to turn it on. After the DVR is turned on, it will automatically enter the recording mode, with the recording indicator flashing. Press the OK button to stop during recording. Press and hold the power button to turn it off.
When I first got the Volkswagen OEM dash cam, I found it super simple and easy to use. It automatically starts recording when the car is ignited, with no manual operation needed. There's a dedicated button on the center console—just press it lightly to pause or start recording, and press again to switch modes, like the parking surveillance feature that captures movements even when the engine is off. Connecting to the phone app is even better. Download the official Volkswagen app, pair via Bluetooth, and you can view live footage or playback clips, plus adjust settings like resolution up to 1080p. The SD card slots in on the side—just format it regularly to ensure enough storage. I use it to record my commute, and with one button press, I can save emergency videos in case of accidents, making insurance claims a breeze. Remember to check and clean the lens monthly to avoid dust affecting the footage.
