This range of Nextbase Dash Cams has been designed specifically with ease of use in mind; it is recommended NOT to change the default settings, which have been carefully selected to give the best performance for day to day use. Basic Operation A U3 type Micro SD card is required to use this Dash Cam. This is due to the very large data rate generated by high resolution recording. For best results, we recommend using our Nextbase branded SD cards with your Dash Cam. For use with Rear Cam attached, a U3 Card is required. Your Nextbase Dash Cam is set to record video, in files of just 1 minute in length. This means that each video file is a manageable size should you need to download and send to your insurance company. Eventually your MicroSD card will fill up with video files but don't worry, the camera automatically deletes the oldest file to make space for new recordings. This way you never run out of space and have plenty of driving data saved. Typically a 16Gb card will store the last 45 minutes of driving footage. The GPS will automatically adjust for Daylight Savings Time. Automatic Start / Stop Technology The Dash Cam will automatically power on and be ready to use once power is available. In some vehicles this will be when connections are made, for others the Dash Cam will power on once the ignition has been turned on. When power is cut off, the Dash Cam will perform an automatic shutdown process.
