CHENSIVE 3 Dash Cam Installation

How to install the front camera?
( Please install the camera after turning off the car engine.）

1. Install the driving recorder on the glass near the rear-view mirror
2. Connect the power cord to the machine and plug the cord into the
   intersection of the ceiling and the glass
3. Go down the power cord along the seam of the A-pillar
4. Run the power cord along the door seam to the bottom of the
   storage box
5. Run the power cord along the bottom of the storage box towards
   the cigarette lighter and insert the cigarette lighter plug into the cigarette lighter hole.

Here are some suggestions for installing the dashcam.

1. It should be installed near the rear-view mirror of the car, but not obstructing the driver’s view.
2. Make sure that the lens is within the range of the windshield wipers so that the video can monitor road conditions clearly when it rains.
3. Please not touch the lens with your fingers, to prevent fingerprints from affecting the clarity of the video.
4. If you need to remove the suction cup holder from the windshield, be careful as it may damage the adhesive and cause the dashcam to fall off.

How to install the rear camera?
(Note: please ensure that the view of the rear camera is normal before installing your rear camera. The length of the rear camera cable is 18ft, supporting car and SUV for five seats. )

There are two installation methods:

1. The rear camera is installed above the inner of the rear windshield. (It can be installed by yourself, the reversing visual function cannot be achieved, and it can only record rear videos)
2. The rear camera is installed above the license plate frame by a professional or yourself. And connect the camera to the reversing light power supply, which can achieve the reversing visual function. (The red power wire on the rear camera can be connected to the reversing light power supply.)
