KingSlim D5 Dash Cam-FAQs
Why is my KingSlim dash cam not working?
Ensure you are using the original car charger and check if the indicator light turns on. If the light works but the camera doesn’t, the dash cam may be defective. Contact customer support for further assistance.
What app do I need for the KingSlim dash cam?
Use the KINGSLIM App to connect your dash cam via built-in WiFi and manage recordings on iOS and Android devices.
Why is my dash cam unresponsive?
Your dash cam may not be working due to battery issues, power supply problems, a faulty memory card, or incorrect settings. Check these factors to troubleshoot the issue.
How do I know when my dash cam is fully charged?
Charge the camera for at least 4 hours with the device turned on. The blue charging LED will turn off once fully charged. If unplugged, the dash cam should shut down automatically.
Should I set my dash cam to 50Hz or 60Hz?
If you are in the United States, set the frequency to 60Hz for optimal performance. This setting helps reduce flickering in your footage.
How can I keep my dash cam powered continuously?
For constant power, consider hardwiring the dash cam to your vehicle’s fuse box. This provides a cleaner installation and allows the camera to stay on even when the car is parked.
What is the ideal loop recording setting for a dash cam?
A 5 to 10-minute loop setting is recommended. This keeps file sizes manageable while ensuring you don’t lose too much footage in case of an incident.
Is KingSlim a good dash cam brand?
Yes, the KingSlim D4 offers 4K resolution, GPS, WiFi, and a large touchscreen display. While the video quality is good, the 4K resolution may not be as sharp as expected.
