USING YOUR DASH CAM
SET UP
Insert an SD Card into the SD Card Slot. You
should use a Class 6 SD Card or above (up to
64 GB), otherwise you may experience inter-
rupted recording when using your dash cam.
Place the camera in an area that does not ob-
struct the driver’s view, usually near or below
the rear-view mirror. Be sure to arrange the
cable so that it is out of the way and does not
interfere with driving. Adjust the cameras to
your desired angles by rotating them.
CHARGING
The CDC-629 has a built-in battery, meant to
extend the camera’s power time for an extra
few seconds. This is in case the power cord is
disconnected accidentally, so that the camera
can power down properly and protect the
recorded video les.
To ensure the best battery life, fully charge the
battery (about 1-2 hours) before your rst use.
You can do so by connecting the dash cam to
a computer using the included USB cable, or
connecting it to your car using the car charger.
The red indicator light will illuminate while the
dash cam is charging, and will turn off when it
is fully charged.

VIDEO MODE
Press the Power Button to start up the dash
cam. The CDC-629 automatically enters
Video Mode when powered on, and will start
recording. Press the REC/OK Button to stop
recording. Press and hold the REC/OK Button
to turn the night vision light on or off. Hold the
Left Button to switch between day and night
shoot modes, and hold the Right Button to
switch the lens combination (which cameras
appear on the Display Screen).
Access the Video Mode Menu by pressing the
Menu Button. There, you can change the video
resolution, and choose to enable or disable
sound while recording.
In case of an emergency, press the Lock
Button to save the current video. This will
ensure that, as the dash cam cycles through
its available memory, it will not overwrite the
locked le. Please note that locked les take
up space on the dash cam’s memory, so be
sure to clear your memory card regularly to
ensure recording space.
CAMERA MODE
Once the dash cam is powered on, press
the Mode Button to enter Camera Mode.
Here, you can take photos using the REC/OK
Button. In the Camera Mode Menu, you can
adjust the picture resolution.
4
PREVIEW MODE
Once the dash cam is powered on, press the
Mode Button twice to enter Preview Mode.
Here, you can play back recorded videos or
view photos on the memory card, delete les,
or lock and unlock les manually.
MENUS
In any mode, press the Menu Button once to
access that mode’s menu. While in the menus,
use the Left and Right Buttons to move
between the available options, and press the
REC/OK Button to select options or conrm
changes.
While in a menu, press the Menu Button again
to access the Settings Menu. Here, you can
adjust the dash cam’s settings, such as the
auto-off timer, the display language, the date
and time, and more. You can also choose to
format the memory card, which will erase all
les on the card, or to perform a system reset,
which will return the dash cam to its factory
default and reset all changes made in the dash
cam’s menus.

DOWNLOADING FILES
To save your les onto a computer, you must
either connect your dash cam to a computer
using the included USB cord, or use a card
reader to pull the les from the memory card.
The dash cam must be shut down to connect
to a computer. Simply plug the dash cam into
the computer, and move the desired les from
the memory card to your computer.
