PARKING SURVEILLANCE MODE
*Requires Hardwiring Cable or OBD II Power Cable and installation for Parking Surveillance mode. Professional installation is recommended.
Parking Surveillance mode is automatically activated when you turn off the ignition, and captures footage when a motion or impact is detected so you have video evidence of mishaps like hit-and-runs while you are away from your vehicle.
Radar Parking Mode
Radar Parking Mode uses low-power front and rear radars to monitor motion, ensuring extended parking surveillance with minimal power consumption. When the radar detects movement in the selected range, the dash cam wakes up from a low-power state and records a 20-second video clip.
