Starting Emergency Recording
Press the Lock Function Button: Locate the lock function button below the emergency recording icon on the main screen and press it. This is typically a quick shortcut to initiate emergency recording.
Automatic Emergency Recording: By default, the dash cam will automatically start emergency recording when it detects a collision. This recording mode captures crucial video evidence during critical moments.
Recording Process
Non-Interruptible: The emergency recording cannot be interrupted or stopped during the recording process to ensure a complete record of the event's occurrence.
Automatic Switch: Once the recording is complete, the dash cam will automatically switch back to the standard video recording mode to continue capturing routine driving footage.
Notes
No Recording While Connected to App: When the dash cam is connected to the KAWA AUTO app on a phone or other device, it will not record emergency videos. This is to prevent accidental overwriting of important videos during synchronization or settings adjustment.
Sensitivity Adjustment
Adjusting Sensitivity
Physical Button Settings: Press the function button below the settings icon on the dash cam to enter the settings menu. Navigate to "Video Settings" > "Emergency Video" > "Collision Detection Sensitivity" where you can select different sensitivity options.
App Settings: Open the KAWA AUTO app and connect to the dash cam. On the preview interface, tap the settings icon in the top-right corner and navigate to "Advanced Settings" > "Emergency Video" > "Collision Detection Sensitivity" to adjust the sensitivity.
Sensitivity Options
High Sensitivity: Selecting high sensitivity means the dash cam is more sensitive to collisions, and even minor vibrations or bumps may trigger emergency recording.
Low Sensitivity: Low sensitivity is less reactive, requiring a larger impact or collision to trigger emergency recording.
Recommendation
Choose an appropriate sensitivity based on your driving habits and road conditions. If you frequently drive on bumpy roads, you may want to reduce the sensitivity to avoid unnecessary emergency recordings. Regularly check the dash cam's settings and storage status to ensure the emergency recording function is operating properly and there is sufficient storage space for videos.
