Installing the Drive Cam
- Ensure both the inside and outside of the windscreen are clean and dry, this will ensure the mount sticks securely, and that the camera’s view is not obstructed.
- Position the camera so that it will not obstruct the driver’s view (we recommend behind the rear-view mirror).
- Stick the mount into position, ensuring it is fully secure.
Charging the Drive Cam
We recommend fully charging the Muvi Drive Cam before its first use. To charge the camera use the 12v cable supplied, and attach the corresponding ends to the corresponding ports. We recommend leaving the camera connected to a power source at all times when in use.
Using the Drive Cam
Power on/Power off
Press the ‘Power Button’ once to power on the camera; a solid red indicator light will appear and the device loading screen will turn on. When using the camera for the first time you will be prompted to set the language, time, and date. The GPS will sync automatically. Once on, press the Power Button once to view the ‘Path Analysis’ screen. This will show you the statistics of your drive.
Powering off the camera is done by pressing and holding the ‘Power Button’ for approximately two seconds; the red indicator light will disappear and the screen will shut down before the camera turns off.
Video recording
When on the home screen to begin recording press the ‘Record Button’ for approximately one second; the indicator LED will flash slowly and the timer will appear on the screen. The camera will also automatically switch on and begin recording when connected to the power source. To stop recording press the ‘Record Button’ once again, and the file will be saved to the microSD card automatically; the LED indicator will turn solid red and the timer will stop. The camera automatically loops records, overwriting the oldest footage on the card and replacing it with new footage. If you wish to save footage from the SD card, you will need to save it externally.

Press the ‘MIC Button’ to mute or unmute the microphone. A microphone icon will appear on the screen indicating whether the microphone is on or off. You can also use the ‘MIC Button’ to turn the display on or off by holding it down for two seconds.
playback footage on the camera press the ‘Mode Button’ once, this will bring up the latest recorded file; use the up and down arrows to scroll through all the saved footage. To play footage press the ‘OK Button’, to pause the footage at any point please press the ‘OK Button’ again. To get back to the home screen press the ‘Menu Button’.
MicroSD card
Before using a new microSD card you will need to format the card in the camera settings. We recommend formatting your microSD card at least once every two weeks, this will ensure invisible memory is cleared and also reduce the risk of file corruption. Formatting the card will completely wipe all data from the card, ensuring that any files you wish to keep are saved externally. If formatting through a computer ensure the card is in FAT32 format. Supports microSD cards up to 128GB. Please note Veho is not responsible for the loss of any data.
