Powering the Product
The GPS system
Use the USB power socket alone. Overloading or splitting
the connection may lead to the abnormal generation of heat
or fire.
Hold the connector portion of the power cable when
unplugging. A damaged power cable may cause electric
shock or fire.
To prevent possible product failure, use this Product only on
cars built with a DC12V negative earth electrical system.
After the camera body is switched on, it may take up to
approximately 30 seconds to begin recording.
Depending on the ambient environment or geographical
factors, the Product may not be able to adequately receive
GPS signals or receive GPS signals at all.
In order to receive clear GPS signals, do not place
obstructive items around the Product.
GPS satellites are controlled by the U.S. Department of
Defense and their accuracy is subject to change without
prior notice.
When the Product is switched on, it may take time until it
starts receiving GPS signals. Allow between 30 seconds
to a few minutes, depending on the signal reception
environment, weather, vehicle conditions, and position of
the Product.
Do not use this Product near other GPS products or VICS
receiver units. Doing so may cause such products/units and
this Product to malfunction.
GPS signal reception may be hindered if the front
windshield of your car has been surface-treated with a
coating, etc.
In some cars with a start-stop system, the supplied voltage
may be reduced in order to restore the electric power for
restarting the engine. Due to this, the power supply to this
Product may be stopped.
The camera body
If the surface of the lens has attracted dirt, sand, fingerprints,
etc., wipe clean using a dry, clean and lint-free cloth.
If the camera body has become hot after using it for long
amount of time, to avoid potential burns, do not allow it to
come into direct contact with your skin.
To prevent product failure, do not touch the terminals on the
camera body.
When cleaning the camera body, do not use solutions
containing abrasive compounds, alcohols, or organic
solvents.
In some cases, your recorded images, video and/or data
may constitute an infringement on the legal rights of a third
party. Car Mate takes no responsibility for any matters with
regard to, and arising from, the content of the images,
videos and/or data recorded on this Product.
Recording performance and time may vary depending on
the object being recorded, or on the ambient environment.
This Product is not guaranteed to produce validity as
evidence for any accidents, or to identify the license plate,
model or color of any vehicle.
Keep the camera lens surface and all car windows clean.
Irregular light reflection and refraction caused by dust and
other foreign matter may affect recording quality.
This Product is not guaranteed to record in any and all
circumstances.
Car Mate takes no responsibility for any loss arising from
the use or failure of this Product, or from any damage to
any recorded video and/or data.
To record in highest possible quality in darkness, ensure
you turn on the headlights or fog lights of your car.
Recording quality may deteriorate at night, when backlit, or
when the ambient lighting changes sharply.
Troubleshooting
Due to the characteristics of the electrical components of
this Product, the surface/internal temperatures of the camera
may increase depending on the conditions of use.
When the ambient temperature exceeds the operating
temperature range, Product operation will be stopped for
protection.

operational modes by recognizing its electric power supply
source. Ensure you use only the add-on accessory products
included in this Product, or those sold separately. Some
third-party USB cables and USB power sockets may not be
compatible with this Product.
Using this Product near a TV antenna may cause a
deterioration in the reception sensitivity, flickering and/or
noise from the TV set.

designed to keep supplying electrical power to their cigarette
lighter receptacle, even with the engine turned off. If your car
falls into this category, unplug the Product when the engine
is turned off.
The actual position of your car is determined by microwave
signals broadcast from GPS satellites. Without receiving
such signals, the precise position of your car cannot be
determined.
Using
this Product
Safely

About energy saving mode
This Product is equipped with an energy saving mode, allowing for longer operation of the Product without putting strain
on your car’s battery. The camera will switch automatically to this energy saving mode when either Security mode has
been running for sixteen hours, or the camera body has reached a high temperature. When the camera switches to
energy saving mode, the switch button LED will turn off. In addition, if the ambient temperature exceeds the operating
temperature range, camera operation will be stopped for protection.
3 Turning on the engine
Turning on your car engine (turning on the ignition) with the security add-on connected will automatically
stop Security mode and momentarily switch off the camera. From here, the camera will automatically
switch on and change to Driving mode.

Preparation
Note: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B
digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules.
These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference
in a residential installation.
This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not
installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference
to radio communications.
However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation.
If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception,
which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged
to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
—Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
—Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
—Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the
receiver is connected.
—Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
Using
this Product
Safely
- The provided shielded USB cables must be used for connection to computer or
peripherals in order to meet FCC emission limits and RF interference suppression.
The available scientific evidence does not show that any health problems are
associated with using low power wireless devices.
There is no proof, however, that these low power wireless devices are absolutely safe.
Low power Wireless devices emit low levels of radio frequency energy (RF) in the
microwave range while being used.
Whereas high levels of RF can produce health effects (by heating tissue), exposure
of low-level RF that does not produce heating effects causes no known adverse
health effects.
Many studies of low-level RF exposures have not found any biological effects.
Some studies have suggested that some biological effects might occur, but such
findings have not been confirmed by additional research.
d’Action 360 (DC3000) has been tested and found to comply with FCC radiation
exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment and meets the FCC radio
frequency (RF) Exposure Guidelines.
