5. Configuració i instal·lació

Follow these steps carefully to install your ssontong Dash Cam Hardwire Kit.

5.1 Identifying Fuse Box Location

1. Locate your vehicle's fuse box. Common locations include under the dashboard (driver or passenger side), in the glove compartment, or in the engine bay. Refer to your vehicle's owner's manual for the exact location.
2. Use the included pry bar to carefully remove the fuse box cover.

5.2 Selecting the Correct Fuse Adapters

1. The kit includes various fuse adapters (Low-Profile Mini, Mini, ATO, Micro2) to fit different car models. Compare your vehicle's existing fuses with the provided adapters to select the correct type.
2. Each fuse tap has two slots: one for the original fuse from your car and one for the new fuse provided with the hardwire kit. Ensure both fuses are correctly inserted into the tap.

Figura 4: This image displays the four types of dual-slot fuse holders (ACZ/Micro2, ACS/Mini, ACN/LP Mini, ACU/ATO) included in the kit, designed for wide compatibility with various vehicle fuse boxes.

5.3 Connexió dels cables

1. Cable groc (BAT+): Connect the yellow wire to a fuse slot that provides constant power (always on), even when the vehicle is off. Use a multimeter or circuit tester to identify such a fuse.
2. Cable vermell (ACC): Connect the red wire to a fuse slot that only receives power when the vehicle's ignition is on (ACC power). Use a multimeter or circuit tester to identify this.
3. Cable negre (terra): Connect the black wire to any unpainted metal part of the vehicle's chassis or a designated ground screw.

Important: Before connecting the hardwire kit, ensure the vehicle's engine is off and disconnect the negative terminal of the battery to prevent a short circuit.

5.4 Routing the Cable

1. Connect the Type C connector of the hardwire kit to your dash cam.
2. Carefully route the 13ft power cord from the fuse box to your dash cam's mounting location. Use the included clips and pry bar to tuck the cable neatly along the vehicle's interior panels, such as the windshield gap, A-pillar, and headliner.
3. Ensure the cable does not interfere with airbags, pedals, or other moving parts.

5.5 Final Test

Once all connections are made and the cable is routed, reconnect the negative battery terminal. Start your vehicle to ensure the dash cam powers on correctly and switches to parking mode when the ignition is turned off.

6. Instruccions de funcionament

6.1 24-Hour Parking Surveillance

With the hardwire kit correctly installed, your dash cam will receive continuous power, allowing it to monitor your vehicle even when the engine is off. This enables features such as collision detection and motion detection during parking.

Figura 6: An illustration showing how the hardwire kit provides 24/7 power to the dash cam, enabling continuous recording and parking surveillance features like collision and motion detection.

6.2 Vol baixtage Protecció

The hardwire kit is equipped with a sensitive voltage sensing switch. It continuously monitors your car battery's voltage. Si el voltage drops below 11.4V (for 12V systems) or 23.2V (for 24V systems), the kit will automatically cut off power to the dash cam. This ensures enough power remains to start your vehicle's engine and protects your battery from excessive discharge.

Figura 7: This image highlights the low-voltage battery drain protection feature, showing how the system automatically shuts down when input voltage drops below critical levels to protect the car battery. It also lists other protections like over-current, short-circuit, reverse connection, and overheat protection.
