TROUBLESHOOTING
Help
- Problem: The Roadcam is unable to take pictures and record videos. Solution: Check if the MicroSD card has enough space and lock it.
- Problem: The Roadcam stops automatically when it is recording a video. Solution: Because HD video data takes a lot of space, please use a high-speed MicroSD card compatible with SDHC. High-speed MicroSD cards will have a U1 logo.
- Problem: During the playback of pictures and videos, a “file error” message prompts. Solution: When a MicroSD card storage error or incomplete file
occurred, please use the camera’s “format” function to reformat the MicroSD card. - Problem: The image looks foggy. Solution: Please check whether there is dirt or fingerprints on the lens. Clean the lens using lens cleaner or lens wiper before using.
- Problem: The image looks too dark. Solution: If the Roadcam captures an image that is too dark, adjust the exposure level to your desired brightness.
