Dash Cam Recording
NOTICE
Some jurisdictions regulate or prohibit use of this device. It is
your responsibility to know and comply with applicable laws and
rights to privacy in jurisdictions where you plan to use this
device.
The dash cam records video to the camera memory card
(Installing a Memory Card, page 1). By default, the device
immediately starts recording video when it turns on, and it
continues recording until it is turned off. If the memory card is
full, the device automatically deletes the oldest unsaved video to
create space for new video.
When the option to promptly delete unsaved video is enabled,
the device continually deletes unsaved video more than three
minutes old and deletes all unsaved video each time it is
powered off. This feature is available only for specific regions
and is enabled by default for some of those regions. When the
camera is set to a supported region, you can enable or disable
this feature in the camera settings (Camera Settings in the
Garmin Drive App, page 3).
You can save a video recording to prevent it from being
overwritten or deleted (Viewing Videos and Photos on Your
Smartphone, page 3).
Turning Audio Recording On or Off
NOTICE
Some jurisdictions may prohibit recording audio in the vehicle or
may require that all passengers have knowledge of the
recording and provide consent before you record audio in the
vehicle. It is your responsibility to know and follow all laws and
restrictions for your jurisdiction.
The device can record audio using the integrated microphone
while recording video. You can turn audio recording on or off at
any time.

Event Detection
By default, the device uses a sensor to detect possible incidents

the detected event. The video footage is stamped with the time
and date of the event.
Saving Videos and Photos
By default, the device uses a sensor to detect a possible
incident and saves video footage automatically before, during,
and after the detected event. You can also save video files and
photos manually at any time.
Press .

before, during, and after you select .
TIP: You can press multiple times to save additional
photos and extend the length of the saved video footage.
The memory card has limited storage. After you save a video

recording to your computer or other external storage location for
permanent storage (Videos and Photos on Your Computer,
page 3).
