6. Is it necessary to use only original accessories provided in the package?

7. Can I use a micro SD card with a capacity greater than 32GB?
If you use a micro SD card capacity > 32GB, please change the micro SD card format to FAT 32 on PC (a 32GB card is included in the package). Class10 (10MB/sec) is required.

8. What should I do if my cigar power port is ACC?
If your cigar power port is ACC (if the cigarette lighter is still charged after the car is turned off), please use the hardwire kit or unplug the car charger after the car is turned off to avoid exhausting your car's power supply. Note: This happens in some Ford/Audi cars and electric cars.

9. Can I use the reversing system of the mirror dash cam as an aid if my car has its own reversing assist system?
If your car has its own reversing assist system, please ignore the reversing line of G840S. The reversing system of the mirror dash cam can only be used as an aid. Unlike the usual reverse assist system that displays a 72-degree view, the mirror recorder can display a 180-degree view, so the rear image will be larger. If you mind, please buy with caution.

12. How can I flip/mirror the rear camera image?
If you want to install the rear camera more conveniently on pickups, SUVs, or even on the top roof, please adjust the "Upside Down of Rear Camera" and "Rear Cam Mirror Image" menu to adjust the rear image vertically or horizontally.

13. What should I do if my rear camera is not detected?
Before installation, please turn on the power to see if the front and rear cameras are working. If the rear camera cannot be detected, please check the AV connector and 4 pin connector first (4 pin connector may be loose, you can tighten it and reconnect it) and reconnect the AV connector to check whether the rearview camera can be detected. If it still doesn't work, please contact customer support for assistance.
