- User Manual
- Windscreen Mounting Bracket
- Mini USB Cable
- Vehicle Power Adaptor
MICRO SD MEMORY CARD
Your Dash Cam requires a Micro SD Memory Card to
be inserted to record video or still photos. We
recommend the use of a high speed (Class 6 or higher)
Memory Card for best results. Your Volkano Dash Cam
will operate with memory cards up to 32GB in size.
To insert the memory card, ensure the Dash Cam is
turned off then gently insert it into the Micro SD Card
Slot with the arrow pointing toward the slot and push it
until it clicks into place. To remove it, gently press on
the back of the card until it clicks and then release.
The spring mechanism will eject the card.
Typical usage times for a 32GB Memory Card are 120
minutes on Full HD (1080P Wide) Mode, 180 minutes on
Full HD (1080P) Mode, 280 minutes on HD (720p) Mode,
400 minutes on VGA Mode.

FITTING YOUR VOLKANO DASH CAM
Attach the windscreen mount to the top of the Dash
Cam by sliding it into place and then tightening the
locking nut. Do not over-tighten the nut or angle
adjusting mechanism.
To attach the suction cup to the windscreen, flip the
lever so the suction cup is flat, place it in the desired
position on the windscreen and flip the lever up 90
degrees. To remove it, flip the lever down 90 degrees
and gently ease the suction cup off the windscreen.
PLEASE NOTE: DO NOT place your Dash Cam in any area of the
windscreen where the Dash Cam or Power Cable will obstruct
your view of the road while driving.
When setting up your Dash Cam on the windscreen, we
recommended attaching it as high up as possible with
a slight downward angle. This will help reduce glare
from sunlight or approaching vehicle headlamps.
Be aware that some vehicle windscreens have a tinted
area at the top which may affect the image quality. If
this is the case on your vehicle, simply attach the Dash
Cam to a different area on your windscreen.
PLEASE NOTE: DO NOT adjust the camera position or angle
while driving.

OPERATING YOUR DASH CAM:
1. Charging:
A. Using the built-in rechargeable lithium battery:
Charging options:
1. Connect it to the vehicle 12V outlet using the
supplied charger.
2. Connect it to a 5V USB charger or a computer or
power bank.
- To indicate the unit is charging, the indicator light
on the top right of the Dash Cam will change from
blue to red. When fully charged, it will change back
to blue.
- When charging the Dash Cam, a power display
icon on the bottom right of the screen will flash,
indicating the Dash Cam is charging.
B. Connecting the Dash Cam to the vehicle charger:
When the Dash Cam is plugged into the vehicle 12V
outlet, the Dash Cam automatically turns on when
the vehicle ignition is turned on. The Dash Cam will

When the vehicle is turned off, the Dash Cam turns
off automatically, unless Parking Mode is activated.
If your 12V outlet stays active when the vehicle is
