3.3 Орнотуу кадамдары

  1. Унааңыздын сактандыргыч кутучасын табыңыз: Refer to your vehicle's owner's manual to find the fuse box location, typically under the dashboard, in the glove compartment, or under the hood.
  2. Identify a Suitable Fuse Slot: You will need to identify a fuse slot that provides constant power (always on, even when the ignition is off) for parking mode functionality. You may also need an accessory fuse (power only when ignition is on) depending on your dash cam's requirements. Use a circuit tester to confirm constant power.
  3. Determine Fuse Type: The AUTO-VOX Hardwire Kit comes with a MINI type fuse adapter. Verify that your vehicle uses MINI fuses. If your vehicle uses a different fuse type (e.g., ATM, Micro2, ATO), you will need to acquire the correct fuse tap adapter separately.

  5. Install the Fuse Tap:
    • Carefully remove the existing fuse from the chosen constant power slot.
    • Insert the removed fuse into the lower slot of the fuse tap.
    • Insert a new fuse (e.g., 5A for the dash cam) into the upper slot of the fuse tap.
    • Plug the fuse tap into the empty fuse slot in your vehicle's fuse box. Ensure the fuse tap is oriented correctly (the 'LOAD' side should be towards the device, and the 'DRAW' side towards the power source).
  6. Жерге туташтыруу зымын туташтырыңыз: Locate a metal bolt or screw on the vehicle's chassis near the fuse box. Loosen the bolt, slide the U-shaped terminal of the hardwire kit's black ground wire under it, and tighten the bolt securely. Ensure a good metal-to-metal connection.
  7. Кабель маршруту: Carefully route the long Micro USB cable from the fuse box to your dash camera's mounting location. Tuck the cable neatly along the vehicle's trim, headliner, or A-pillar to conceal it.
  8. Dash Camга туташуу: Plug the Micro USB connector into your dash camera's power input port.
  9. Байланышты текшерүү: Turn on your vehicle's ignition and check if the dash cam powers on. Then, turn off the ignition and remove the key. The dash cam should remain powered on (if configured for parking mode) or enter parking mode, indicating a successful constant power connection.
