SD card

About the SD card

The dashcam records all journeys made by the vehicle, including up to 10 minutes after the journey ends. All dashcam recordings are stored on the SD card.

When the free storage space on the SD card is full, older recordings are overwritten. If the SD card has not been backed up manually, the older recordings will be lost.

The SD and SIM card slots are located on the side of the dashcam under a protective cover.
