2. Using your dash cam in a vehicle
Note:
The dash cam should be placed near the rear-view mirror to ensure optimal camera angle and video quality.
For your own safety, do not operate the controls of the product while driving. Using this product does not
exempt the driver from taking full responsibility for his/her driving behaviour, which includes observing all
traffic rules and safety regulations.
Make sure the dash cam is mounted at a location that does not obstruct the driver’s view or airbag
deployment.
Make sure that the camera lens is not blocked and no reflective material appears near the lens. Please keep
the lens clean.
Video quality may degrade if the vehicle's windscreen is tinted.
The system will automatically calibrate the G-sensor during start-up. If the device's viewing angle or installa-
tion position was changed from the original position after start-up, please turn the device off and on again to
recalibrate the G-sensor. Otherwise the G-sensor may malfunction and impact other features of the device
(such as event-driven recording and Parking Mode).
The dash cam is designed to stay connected with the vehicle power adapter at all times. The internal battery
is designed to allow the dash cam to save the last recording in case the vehicle’s power system fails during
an incident. The internal battery is not the primary power source.
Mounting the dash cam
Make sure that your car is parked on level ground. Follow the instructions below to securely mount your dash cam in a
vehicle.
1. Before attaching the device mount to the windscreen, it is recommended to clean the windscreen with rubbing
alcohol and make sure that the installation area is free of dust, oil and grease.
2. When adjusting the angle of mounting, make sure that the camera’s view is parallel with level ground and the ground
to sky ratio is about a 50/50 split.
3. Connect the vehicle power adapter to the cigarette lighter. Route the cables through the ceiling and the A-pillar so that
it does not interfere with driving. Make sure that the cable installation does not interfere with the vehicles airbags or
other safety features.
Note: The installation illustrations are for reference only. Device and cable placement may vary depending on
the vehicle model. If you encounter any problems during installation, contact a skilled installer (such as the service
personnel of the vehicle) for assistance.
3. Using a memory card
In order to record video footage, Navman dash cameras need a microSD. It is very important to use a microSD
card specifically designed to be used in dash cameras. It will ensure the card will be more reliable and last
longer; the wrong type of card has a greater chance of failing, even after a short period of time. Please visit
www.navman.com.au/memory-card or www.navman.co.nz/memory-card for more information on
recommended SD cards.
To insert the SD card, hold its edges and gently insert it into the slot as shown in the
illustration.
To remove a card, gently push the top edge of the card inwards to release it and pull it
out of the slot.
Formatting a card
To format the memory card (all data will be erased), press > Format.
Note:
l
DO NOT apply pressure to the centre of the memory card.
l
Navman cannot guarantee product compatibility with memory cards from all manufacturers. Please always
check the specifications/warranty to ensure the memory card can be used in dash cameras and loop recording
devices.
l
Please format the memory card to avoid recording errors caused by missing system files or folders.
l
You may need to format your memory card periodically to ensure it remains in good working condition.
l
You should use separate MicroSD cards for the dash cam and other electronic products (such as a digital
camera).
l
You are advised to turn the device off before removing the memory card.
4. Turning the dash cam on/off
Complete the installation according to the instructions in the “Using your dash cam in a vehicle” section. Once the
vehicle engine is started, the dash cam will turn on automatically.
When you power on your dash cam for the first time, follow the on-screen prompts to complete the following:
l
Select your preferred language.
l
Select your local timezone.
l
Set the preferred distance unit.
Shutting down the dash cam
Occasionally you may need to perform a hardware reset when the dash cam stops responding or if it appears to be
“frozen” or unresponsive. To shut down the dash cam, press and hold the Power button until the system powers off.
If you cannot turn the dash cam off by using the Power button, insert a pointy object
such as a straightened paper clip into the Reset Button to restart the dash cam.
5. Recording videos while driving
Continuous recording
Continuous recording will automatically commence shortly after the system is powered up. The system indicator will flash
while recording is in progress. Recording can be paused by pressing . Press to return to the recording screen and
resume recording.
Videos taken during continuous recording are divided into multiple clips and saved under the "Normal" folder,
but recording will not stop between video clips. Once the folder has reached its allocated capacity, the system will
automatically record over the oldest video saved under this folder.
Event-driven recording
During continuous recording, if a sudden event has been detected, such as running over a road bump, vehicle collision,
high-speed driving, or making a sharp turn, the G-sensor will prompt the dash cam to record the event.
Note: The sensitivity level of the G-sensor can be adjusted by going to > Video Recording > G-sensor
Sensitivity.
The actual recording will begin three seconds before and end 12 seconds after the event has taken place. Video recording
will continue if the sensor is triggered again while recording an event. Event-driven recordings are saved in the "Event"
folder. Once the folder has reached its allocated capacity, the system will automatically record over the oldest video saved
under this folder. You can also press to manually activate event-driven or emergency recording while continuous
recording is in progress.
6. Recording videos while parked
Note: The dash cam cannot operate in Parking Mode by relying on its internal battery power. An
additional accessory such as an uninterruptible power cable or the Smart Box is required. Please visit
www.navman.com.au/mivue-smartbox or www.navman.co.nz/mivue-smartbox for purchasing
information and consult a skilled installer for assistance.
Parking Mode is disabled by default. Before enabling Parking Mode, please check your device memory storage allocation.
Go to > System > Storage Allocation to set a proper allocation for parking recording. Changing memory
allocation will erase the contents on the memory card, so save any videos or photos to your computer first.
You can enable the function by selecting > Parking Mode > Parking Mode then choosing either Smart Mode
(Recordings are triggered when vibrations or moving objects are detected) or Low Power Mode (Vibrations trigger
the dash cam to wake up and start recording. Less power is used as the dash cam is in hibernation). When movements
or vibrations are detected while Parking Mode is active, the system will save the duration from three seconds before the
event until 12 seconds after the event. Parking Mode recordings are saved in the "Parking" folder. Once the folder has
reached its allocated capacity, the system will automatically record over the oldest video saved under this folder.
Once enabled, the dashcam will automatically enter Parking Mode once the vehicle’s ignition is turned off. You can also
enter Parking Mode manually by pressing the button on the recording screen. The system will automatically turn off
the screen once Parking Mode is activated. Press any button to turn the screen back on.
Note:
Parking Mode recording is triggered by the G-sensor and motion detection. You can change the sensitivity levels by
selecting > Parking mode > Motion Detection/G-Sensor Sensitivity.
To exit Parking Mode (and resume continuous recording), turn on the vehicle’s ignition. You will be prompted to view any
saved recordings.
7. Taking photographs

image. Photos captured by the dash cam are stored in the “Photo” folder.
