Xiaomi 70mai Rearview Mirror Dash Cam - Installation

Preparation

Insert the microSD card into the slot on the dash cam before inserting the power cord into the DC/IN interface on the dash cam.

Installation

As shown in the figure below, attach the dash cam to the rearview mirror of your vehicle and adjust its position as appropriate to ensure that the camera is not blocked. Use the fixing straps in the packing box to fix the dash cam.

Connecting the power supply

As shown in the figure below, run the power cord along the front windshield, A-pillar, and co-pilot storage compartment to the cigarette lighter. Insert the car charger into the cigarette lighter receptacle.

* You can use the cable crowbar in the box to hide the power cord underneath a rubber sealing strip.

* As the positions of cigarette lighter receptacles vary with vehicles, the specific routing of power cords depends on the actual conditions. The preceding figure serves as a reference only.

Adjust the camera angle

Start the vehicle or rotate the key to the ACC gear position to supply power to the cigarette lighter. The dash cam will be turned on automatically.

The camera supports universal angle adjustment, with a rotational range of ±4°. Please adjust the angle according to the preview screen to ensure that the camera is forward-facing.

Startup/Shutdown - Xiaomi 70mai Rearview Mirror Dash Cam

Startup

Use any of the following ways to start the dash cam:

- Press the power button.

- Connect the cigarette lighter and start the vehicle. The cigarette lighter will be powered by the vehicle and the dash cam will be turned on automatically.

- Enable the parking surveillance function. The dash cam will be turned on automatically when any collision or movement of the vehicle is detected in parking surveillance mode.

* If no external power supply is connected and the built-in battery has a low capacity, the dash cam will not be started.

Shutdown

Use any of the following ways to shut down the Xiaomi 70mai Rearview Mirror Dash Cam:

- Press and hold the power button.

- Connect the cigarette lighter and turn off the vehicle. When the power supply from the vehicle to the cigarette lighter is discontinued, the dash cam will be turned off automatically.

The dash cam will be automatically turned off in any of the following circumstances:

- If no external power supply is connected and the built-in battery has a low capacity;

- If no external power supply is connected and the ambient temperature exceeds the discharge temperature limit of the built-in battery;

- If the dash cam is working under high temperature that exceeds its operating temperature limit;

- If the microSD card is removed while the dash cam is working;

- When the engine is turned off and there is residual power in the cigarette lighter, if the vehicle is kept stationary for 20 minutes and the dash cam is left untouched, the product will switch off automatically. If the parking surveillance function is enabled, the dash cam will enter the parking surveillance mode.

* Some vehicles are still powering cigarette lighters after their engines have been turned off. To avoid the loss of battery power due to prolonged operations of the dash cam, please make sure to manually power off the dash cam or remove the car charger if the parking surveillance function has been disabled.

* Once the dash cam has been manually powered off, it needs to be manually powered on the next time you start your vehicle. The Company shall not be liable for any loss that results from your failure to switch off the dash cam manually.

Voice Control

The dash cam supports quick control by voice commands. When the dash cam is turned on, you may issue a shortcut command to trigger the corresponding function.

The dash cam supports the following voice commands:

Take picture - Quickly capture a photo.

Record video - Start recording an emergency video.

Turn on screen - Turn on the screen backlight and enter the dash cam screen.

Turn off screen - Exit the dash cam screen and turn off the screen backlight.

Due to the complex sound environment within the vehicle and the diversity of user accents, we do not guarantee that every voice command will be able to trigger the respective function accurately, nor do we guarantee the complete avoidance of accidental triggering.

If you do not wish to use the voice control function, please disable this function under Settings > Advanced Settings.

Recording mode

Once the Xiaomi 70mai Rearview Mirror Dash Cam is turned on, it automatically enters the recording mode to record videos. A flashing red dot in the upper-left corner of the screen indicates that a video is being recorded.

The dash cam is not in the recording mode and video recording is suspended in any of the following circumstances:ﾠ

- When the dash cam is providing operating guidance after you start it for the first time;

- When the microSD card is being formatted;

- When the dash cam is being upgraded;

- When the dash cam is restoring its factory settings;

- When the dash cam is receiving its upgrade package from 70mai app;

- When you perform any operation after accessing the album either from the dash cam itself or from the mobile phone app.

When the dash cam returns to the main interface or exits the preceding procedure, it reverts back to video recording automatically.

Emergency video recording

You may choose one of the following ways to record an emergency video:

1. Press the key below the “” icon on the main interface to record an emergency video;

2. Start the dash cam so that it can automatically record an emergency video when it detects any collision.

The process of recording an emergency video cannot be interrupted. When the emergency video recording is completed, the dash cam automatically enters the normal video recording mode.

You may adjust the sensitivity of the sensor that triggers the emergency video recording mode under Settings > Collision Sensitivity. The higher the sensitivity, the easier it is to trigger the emergency video recording mode. If you do not want the dash cam to automatically enter the emergency video recording mode, you may disable this function under Settings.

You may view the recorded emergency video in the emergency video directory in the album.

Due to the complexity of road conditions, the dash cam may not save every emergency video to the emergency video directory. If you are unable to locate an emergency video in the emergency video directory, please search the normal video directory. 

The system allocates specific storage space for emergency videos during the process of microSD card formatting. When the storage limit is reached, the earliest emergency video will be deleted if a new emergency video is added. Please export important emergency videos to your mobile phone or computer for backup in a timely manner.

Parking surveillance

The parking surveillance function is disabled by default. You may enable this function under Settings > Advanced Settings.

Once the parking surveillance function is enabled, the dash cam enters the parking surveillance mode automatically when the vehicle is parked and turned off. In the event of a collision whilst the vehicle is parked, the dash cam automatically records a video and saves it to the parking surveillance video directory. The device will remind you to view the video the next time you start the vehicle.

The parking surveillance function is ineffective in any of the following circumstances:

1. If no external power supply is connected when the dash cam is turned off and the built-in battery has a low capacity, the parking surveillance mode cannot be enabled.

2. When the dash cam enters parking surveillance mode for a long time without an external power supply, it will deplete its built-in battery. When the battery is low or completely depleted, the dash cam will not be able to record parking surveillance videos in the event of a collision.

3. When the dash cam enters parking surveillance mode, and there is no external power supply while the temperature inside the vehicle is below 0 ℃ or above 50℃ , the built-in battery cannot work, and the dash cam will not be able to record parking surveillance videos in the event of a collision.

If your vehicle is parked but continues to supply power to the cigarette lighter, the dash cam will enter the parking surveillance mode after 20 minutes and the parking surveillance function shall consume the storage battery of your vehicle. When your vehicle is kept idle for a prolonged period of time, this may result in reduced storage battery power. For such circumstances, it is recommended that you use the parking surveillance cord with the storage battery protection function.

The parking surveillance function relies on an acceleration sensor to detect collision of parked vehicles. Due to the complexity of the environment, we are unable to guarantee that every collision of your parked vehicle can be accurately identified. In addition, there may be missing or false alarms. If frequent false alarms are given due to vibration rather than collision, you may disable the parking surveillance function under Settings.
