7
Do not mount the camera where it can be a distraction if it
became loose and falls off the windshield while driving.
Do not expose this device to excessive heat, fire, or dust or

Ultimate USB Type-C Hardwire Kit and power cables to power
the ROVE R2-4K DUAL PRO dash cam.
This is NOT a toy. Keep away from children.

8
Some countries or USA states prohibit drivers from mounting
anything on a windshield or prohibit mounting on certain areas
of the windshield. It is the owner/operator’s responsibility to
mount and use this device in compliance with local laws.
The company is NOT responsible for the loss of any data or
your content during operation or in any circumstance.
Memory Card: A memory card is included in the box for use
with the dash cam. You can use up to 1TB microSD Card.
Before inserting the external memory card, make sure to
inspect the memory card for physical damage or cracks. Do
NOT use the memory card that shows the sign of physical
damage or cracks, as it can cause short-circuit and burn a
memory card, hence damaging the camera, and if you touch
the memory card, it can cause burns while removing it.
9
Make sure to always keep the camera plugged into the
power during its operation as ROVE R2-4K DUAL PRO uses
Supercapacitor (NOT an internal battery). You can plug the
camera into your home’s 110V outlet during set up. For the
power, you can use your cellphone’s USB Charger with
Type-C Cable. Just make sure that the USB charger has a
5V, 2.4 AMP power output, otherwise, the camera will not
work properly.
Before turning ON the camera, please ensure you insert the
memory card. Please insert the included ROVE PRO or a
genuine branded Class-10, U3, or higher-speed microSD
Card, up to 1TB max for reliable operation.
(We recommend ROVE Ultimate (Premium Choice) or ROVE
PRO (Everyday Affordable) microSD Card up to 1TB MAX.)
Before first time use, you MUST format the memory card in
the camera to prevent any errors and for smooth operation.

The camera comes with the default settings which allows you to
start using your camera right out of the box without changing
any settings. Make sure to format the memory card before first
time use. You can use either the suction mount or the sticky
mount to install the front/main camera. We recommend starting
with a suction mount installation first to test it out. Once you
find the proper installation place of your liking, we suggest you
switch to the sticky mount installation.
INSTALLATION
Installing and using the suction mount
Installation Position: Most people will install their R2-4K
DUAL PRO next to the rear view mirror and opposite side of
the driver. First, Stop the engine where there is some light
and in a safe place, and then remove the key.
1
Make sure to clean your windshield from dust particles and
evaporated grease from the dashboard surface.
Attach the ROVE R2-4K DUAL PRO with the suction mount. Set
the camera lens to point forward to the center when installing it.
2
3
NOTE
Make sure that the camera’s view is not obstructed by any window tint
or any other objects.
17
4
Press the suction mount against the windshield and
while pressing, turn the LOCKING Knob towards
the LOCK position to lock the mount in place.
To Lock The Suction Mount: Press & hold it tight towards
the windshield to remove any air between the suction mount
and the windshield. While pressing & holding towards the
windshield, turn the LOCKING Knob towards CLOCKWISE to
LOCK in place.
AVOID THIS
dot-matrix pattern, as
suction mount will
NOT be able to get a
strong suction, hence
it will fall down if you
mount on top of it.
5
Adjust the lens angle of the camera.
Simply rotate the
camera 360
o
to
record any direction
you prefer.
Loosen the screw
to adjust the
camera’s view/tilt
angle and then tighten
it to lock that angle.
18
Connect the 12FT USB Type-C Power Cable for front camera.
6
7
Hide the power cable inside the trim and use the included
cable clips for additional support to organize the cable if
needed so it does not interfere with the driver's vision.
WARNING:
If your vehicle has side curtain airbags please be very careful when
running any cables along your vehicle windows. Ensure that you are
not running a cable that passes any of the airbags as this can prevent
the airbags from deploying.
19
Install the rear camera at the
rear window. Before attaching
the rear camera in the rear
windshield, thoroughly clean the
rear windshield using included
cleaning wipe, and let it air dry.
8
Installing the rear camera
Securely attach the Rear
Camera to the rear windshield
on top of the static film, and
adjust the viewpoint.
10
Apply the Electrostatic film to
the rear windshield and use a
credit card to remove all the
air bubbles.
9
If your vehicle have defroster lines in the back, pick a spot where those
lines are further away to create a strong bond. Rarely it is NOT possible
to apply electrostatic film successfully as some cars might have too rigid
and closer defroster lines, and in this case, the electrostatic film will
NOT work for you. Most of the time, this is not an issue, as many
customers have already applied electrostatic film over the defroster
lines successfully.
NOTE
20
Now, please connect the rear
camera cable in the Type-C port
of the rear cam.
11
12
Plug the other side of the rear
camera cable into the rear
cam port on the front camera
and ensure the cable is firmly
connected.
Make sure to tuck up and route the rear camera cable neatly.
NOTE
Make sure only to plug in the rear camera when the main (front)
camera is turned OFF, otherwise it may damage the rear camera.
21
NOTE
The rear camera is NOT waterproof. Therefore it is only designed to
be mounted inside the vehicle.

Only use ROVE’s USB Car Charger, otherwise the camera may
frequently reboot or flicker LCD due to insufficient power.
CAUTION:
13
Now connect the power cable with the included ROVE's USB
car charger into your car's cigarette lighter socket.
Check the complete wiring at a glance diagram below to
ensure everything is connected properly.

accordingly.
14
Now start the car's engine and check if the dash cams are
working correctly.
16
Insert the microSD card into the dash cam before using it for
the first time.
(See page 38 to know more about inserting/
removing microSD Cards)
15
Make sure to remove the Plastic Lens Screen Protector from the
lens before recording videos. Otherwise, your videos will look blurry
and blocked.
CAUTION:
How to Install The Primary cam
with Spare Sticky Mount
OPTIONAL
First, turn OFF the car's engine.
1
Measure and decide the
applicable installation area
using the dash cam’s view
finder before you start
installing the dash cam. Look
at the front camera’s video
location by temporarily holding
the dash cam on the
windshield and make sure you
like the installation spot of your
choice before proceeding. Most
2
24
people installed their ROVE R2-4K DUAL PRO next to the rear
view mirror and opposite side from the driver.
Now thoroughly clean the
applicable area using the
included cleaning pad and
let it air dry.
3
Do NOT touch the area after cleaning, or finger grease will not allow
the electrostatic film to create a strong bond with your windshield.
CAUTION:
We strongly suggest that you use the included electrostatic
film when using the sticky mount on your car's windshield.
Electrostatic film is designed to give you a clean removal of
your sticky mount. If you ever need to remove the Mount,
then you can simply peel off the electrostatic film from the
windshield for an easy and clean removal.
Why use electrostatic film?
NOTE
Make sure that the camera’s view is not obstructed by any window tint
or any other objects.
25
Now, carefully peel off the RED side of the film from the mount
side (and again, making sure NOT to touch the glue with
fingers). Then gently stick the front camera on the windshield
over the electrostatic film. Then use both hands to apply even
pressure to the camera from both sides for about 30 seconds.
This should create a proper bond between Sticky-Mount &
6
Now peel off the “Step 1” side of the electrostatic film &
apply the exposed static side to the windshield. Apply
pressure to the film, use a credit card to slide and remove
any air bubbles for the strong bond with the windshield.
4
Now, let’s make sure the Mount is fully secured and locked
in place.
5
CAUTION:
After you peel off the top film, do NOT touch the applicable side of
the electrostatic film with fingers to test it. It is charged with electric
particles to create static bond. No need to touch it to test how
strong it is.
Avoid this
dot-matrix pattern
as the electrostatic
film will NOT stick
properly over the
bumpy pattern.
When applying the electrostatic film on the car's windshield, avoid the
car's dot matrix pattern for the sun block. Ensure all the bubbles are
removed properly by using the credit card to slide them out.
NOTE
26
mount to windshield over the electrostatic film, and adjust the
view angle accordingly.
Apply pressure
toward the
windshield.
Please ensure the camera's field of view (lens) is NOT overlapping the
electrostatic film. Otherwise, your video will look blurry.
IMPORTANT:
The CPL filter may reduce video quality in low-light conditions and
should be removed for night driving.
NOTE
ABOUT CIRCULAR POLARIZER LENS (CPL)
The ROVE R2-4K DUAL PRO includes a FREE Circular Polarizer
(CPL) Filter, designed to enhance video quality by reducing glare
from dashboards, sunlight, and reflections. This optional
accessory selectively blocks polarized light to improve color,
contrast, and overall video clarity while also protecting your
dash cam lens.
WARNING:
Before attaching the CPL filter to the dash cam, ensure the dash
cam is powered off.
Do not install or adjust while driving.
Always handle with care to avoid damage or smudges.
Clean the CPL with a microfiber cloth (included) or a lens
cleaning solution designed for optical glass.

Installation Steps
Power Off Dash Cam: Before installing the CPL filter, power
off and unplug your dash cam to avoid accidental damage.
Remove CPL Cover:
Carefully remove the
plastic lens cover from the
CPL filter. Avoid touching
the inside or outside of the
CPL lens to prevent
smudging or adding finger
grease, which can blur
your videos.

Clean the Lens: Use the
microfiber cleaning cloth
(included in the box) to
remove any dust or
smudges from the lens.
Ensure the lens is clean
before installing the CPL
filter to avoid blurry videos.

28
Adjust for Glare Reduction: Rotate the front part of the filter
while observing the camera viewfinder to minimize reflections.
Place White Paper: Place
a small white piece of paper
on the dashboard, under the
dash cam, and in the middle
(away from the windshield)
to create a reflection on the
windshield visible in the
camera's viewfinder.

LOOK FOR THIS WINDSHIELD REFLECTION

REFLECTION
While the CPL filter effectively reduces glare, complete elimination may
not always be possible due to specific lighting conditions.
NOTE
Fine-Tune Glare Reduction: Focus on the dash cam
display and gradually rotate the front side of the CPL filter.
Watch for any glare caused by the reflection from the white
paper in the viewfinder. Continue rotating the filter until the
glare is significantly reduced or disappears. Experiment with
different angles to find the optimal position that effectively
reduces glare while maintaining image quality.
Test the Filter: Take recordings in various lighting conditions
to ensure optimal performance.
Rotate clockwise to tighten by holding from
the Top & Bottom (BACK SIDE) of the lens.

Auto Power ON: ROVE R2-4K DUAL PRO Dash Cam is
designed to turn ON and start recording automatically when it
receives power. i.e. when the car engine is started.
Auto Power OFF: The camera is also pre-configured to turn itself
OFF automatically within a few seconds when the power gets
disconnected, i.e. when the car key is turned to LOCK position.
To manually turn ON: Press the power button once.
To manually turn OFF: Press and hold the power button for
at least 2-3 seconds
MANUAL POWER ON/OFF
Be sure to insert the Memory card before powering up the device. Do
NOT insert/remove the memory card while the camera is turned ON.
Only do so when it is turned OFF.
NOTE
Some trucks’ or cars’ 12V cigarette outlets are always HOT, which
means it provides constant power even when the car is turned OFF and
LOCKED. If this is the case for your vehicle, then the auto ON/OFF
feature will not work. And If you leave the camera continuously
recording when the car is turned off, then it will drain your car/truck’s
battery and you might not have enough power to start your car for next
time. To Remedy this situation, you can do one of the two options.
Hardwire your dash cam to your car’s fuse box with ROVE Ultimate
USB Type-C Hardwire Kit.
Visit www.rovedashcam.com to purchase one separately.
Change the connection in the fuse box for your 12V outlet to the socket
which only supplies power when the car key is turned to ACC or ON
position. (See this example-only video: https://youtu.be/F5VL-pUClnc)

ABOUT SUPERCAPACITOR
First, understand that all dash cams, regardless of which brand
the user uses, they either have very small Li-ion batteries or
built-in Supercapacitor (i.e., ROVE R1, R2-4K, R2-4K PRO, R2-4K
DUAL, R3) to save that last video file safely before shutting off
the dash cam, in case if the power gets disconnected due to
accident and also during daily turning off your vehicle.
Now, all dash cams must be plugged into the power at all times
for continuous recording, regardless of which brand you will
purchase.
ROVE R2-4K DUAL PRO uses a Supercapacitor instead of a small
internal battery.
Important Info
Firmware updates for ROVE R2-4K DUAL PRO are provided OTA
(over-the-air) using the ROVE Dash Cam APP for iOS and
Android Devices.

APP using the WiFi Feature. (See Page 43)
Click “Firmware Update” from the left navigation menu while
staying connected to R2-4K DUAL PRO using WiFi Feature.
Please follow on-screen directions to complete firmware updates.

NOTE

The main benefit of using a supercapacitor in a dash cam is that
it drastically increases the product’s life span compared to
internal battery dash cams, which are only good for as long as
the internal battery lasts. You can’t even replace the internal
batteries easily as they are built-in. Therefore super capacitor
dash cams last for years and they do not pose a risk of fire
compared to Li-ion battery dash cams.
Main Benefit
The secondary benefits of a supercapacitor dash cam are as follows:
Supercapacitor is more reliable because it is more heat resistant
compared to Li-ion batteries.
Supercapacitors don’t pose a risk of fire compared to Li-ion
batteries.

How does Supercapacitor work?
A capacitor uses conductive plates with an insulating barrier
(dielectric) in between them. The dielectric stops the electrical
current entering the capacitor, and this builds up a charge
which is stored between the plates.
It charges faster than a battery. The amount of charge a
capacitor can hold depends upon its capacitance or the charge
storage capacity.
ROVE R2-4K DUAL PRO’s Supercapacitor will hold the charge
for about 2 seconds.
Why Supercapacitor?
ROVE R2-4K DUAL PRO dash cam uses a supercapacitor, making
it a unique, reliable dash cam on power consumption and safety.
Moreover, it is more resistant to heat, unlike batteries, and it
extends the overall product life span of the camera.

WHICH MEMORY CARD SHOULD I GET?
We recommend
using the included ROVE PRO
128GB microSD Card. If you
like to upgrade your storage,
we strongly recommend ROVE
Ultimate or ROVE PRO Memory
Cards up to 1TB.
At ROVE, We
have higher standards, 1-Year
Hassle Free Warranty and we
have
specifically designed
our
Memory card is an important part of your dash cam setup. The
most important piece of evidence is collected in your memory
card which is the video evidence.
- Over the years of experience, we have recommended various
memory cards to our customers, because we thought a memory
card is a memory card, how bad it can be, especially from big
brand names. However, based on our experience since 2015, we
have learned that there are too many different types of memory
memory cards to work with our dash cams. In order to save time,
money, and hassle in the long run, we simply recommend our ROVE
microSD Cards. See a few details below to understand why?

FAQ ABOUT MEMORY CARDS:
WHY SHOULD I GET
ROVE MEMORY CARDS?
1
ANSWER:
Everyday
Affordable
Premium
Choice
35
NO, you can get any brand memory card as long as it is class 10,
U3 speed. We absolutely do NOT recommend Samsung or SanDisk
memory cards, based on our experience over the years helping
our customers with troubleshooting issues.
However, one thing to note is that if you get another brand card,
we can't say anything about its quality and how long it will last.
Generally, your return window closes within 30 days of purchase.
So, for example, if your other branded memory card becomes bad
after three months, etc., then you have to take the warranty with
them, and we can't promise how they will help with the
replacement process. Therefore, with that said, to save time,
cards there in the market. Some are cheap, some are expensive,
some are fast, some are slow, some are good and some are bad,
some will last for long and some will last short duration. There
are too many factors to consider when it comes to memory
cards, sizes, types, and their quality and reliability.
- Every now and then a customer will reach out to us stating their
dash cam didn’t record the video of an event that they were
involved in. This happens when the memory card has failed too
soon and they didn’t check. What’s the point of having a good dash
cam but a cheap memory card will fail you? Then the whole point
of investing in a peace of mind dash cam is simply to fail. That is
why, to save time, money, and hassle in the long run, we strongly
recommend you to invest in a ROVE Ultimate or ROVE PRO
microSD Card.
SHOULD I ONLY GET THE
ROVE MEMORY CARDS?

ANSWER:
36
money, and hassle on going back and forth fighting with which
card to get, we simply now recommend our ROVE Ultimate or
ROVE PRO microSD Cards. At ROVE, we have higher standards.
Because in the long run, we all want the camera and memory card
to just work without any issues because we need peace of mind,
and we have better things to do in life than fight to find a simple
memory card.
Most likely it will work just fine. However here are the lessons
learned over the years from helping our customers.
- You might get missing videos after some months of usage of
other brand memory cards. Why?
- Because after a certain write cycle, depending on the type of
flash memory being used inside, the data cell may become bad
sectors. When that happens, the dash cam might freeze up or may
have missing videos. Which is something we don’t want. Your dash
cam may also give you an error related to your memory card
stating the memory card speed is too slow or defective memory
card etc.
We hope this was helpful and informative in choosing the right
memory card. Please feel free to reach out to us if you have any
questions or concerns.
WHAT COULD HAPPEN IF I USE
A THIRD PARTY MEMORY CARD?

LOOP RECORDING
OFF- 4GB MAX 1-MIN (Default), 3-MIN, 5-MIN, 10-MIN
This feature allows the camera to continuously record loop by
loop so it can delete the oldest video files automatically when the
memory card becomes full so you don’t have to manually delete
them. This feature will split each video file to an appropriate
length based on your selection.
OFF: When you choose off, the camera will continue to record each
file 4GB in size until the memory card becomes full and then it will
give you a “Card Full” message. It will NOT record any further until
you either delete files to make room or format the memory card.
The logic for the loop recording feature is designed as follows:
Let’s say the total capacity of the memory card is 100%. When the normal
+ event videos reach > 90%, the dash cam will start the loop recording.
The pre-allocation of directory space for normal and event videos is as
follows:
Normal Videos = 60%, Event Videos = 30%
If the number of event files is less than 30%, then the normal video files
can occupy the unused space of the event allocation until it reaches 90%,
and then the loop recording begins.
When more event (Locked) video files are present, the space of the event
directory is reserved for a maximum of 30%.
If the event video files reach their max allocation of 30%, then the camera
will also delete your oldest locked video to add that new latest event video.
Therefore it is important to understand that you can’t lock unlimited videos
to your memory card. If you lock any videos files that are important, please
note that even lock videos will be deleted similarly to the loop cycle
function with the oldest file first so if an event occurs and if your locked
video allocation is exhausted, to ensure proper room for a new locked
event video in case of a real event. We recommend that you download
any locked video ASAP to prevent it from being deleted.
IMPORTANT:
55
VIDEO RECORDING G-SENSOR
While Video is Being Recorded: In the event when G-Sensor is
triggered due to physical or gravitational impact force on the
camera, the current loop cycle length of the video file will be
locked so it will NOT be deleted by the normal loop cycle function.
G-Sensor is a 3-axis impact gravitational accelerometer which is
designed to detect physical and gravitational forces on the camera.
In this menu, you can choose to enable High Dynamic Range
(HDR) for Front and Rear Cam. HDR enhances exposure by
merging overexposed and underexposed images into a single,
robust representation with a broader range of lighting and
increased image depth. This feature is available for both your Front
and Rear Cameras.
In the event of an accident please make sure you retrieve your footage
before using your camera again to prevent the loss of important video
files due to the loop cycle function, in case the force was minor and did
NOT trigger the G-Sensor to lock the video file automatically. It is a best
practice and recommended to you to retrieve all necessary video footage
after any event of an accident before using your camera to prevent the
loss of vital video files.

ROVE has custom-designed its parking monitor for the best user
experience and automation. Please see the details below.
24-HR AUTO PARKING MODE
Never connect the dash cam directly to your car’s 12/24V battery by
modifying wires. The dash cam is not designed to handle direct current
from the battery. It needs a step-down circuit in the middle (Hardwire Kit)
to adjust the current required by the dash cam. You must connect the
dash cam using the ROVE Ultimate USB Type-C Hardwire Kit and
connect it to the car’s fuse box (NOT to battery terminals directly).
CAUTION:
NOTE:
The camera has a built-in temperature sensor. During sunny afternoons
and direct sunlight with a locked car, the temperature inside the car
turns into a greenhouse effect, and depending on your geographical
location the temperature can exceed the recommended guidelines for
this product. When this happens, the camera will automatically shut
down to prevent damage to the unit to ensure longer product life.

ROVE R2-4K DUAL PRO has a built-in Parking Mode
Feature, allowing you to record in the following two ways after
parking your vehicle.
ANSWER
ROVE R2-4K DUAL PRO & PARKING MODE
HOW DOES IT WORK?
To utilize a 24-HR parking monitor, you need to provide
power to your dash cam while away from your car.
Hardwiring your dash cam to your car's fuse box is
necessary to give power to the dash cam. ROVE Ultimate
USB Type-C Hardwire Kit is NOT Included in the packaging.
Purchase separately.
We understand that not all users prefer the hardwire kit for
their specific installation needs. By not including it in the
default packaging, it allows us to keep the cost down and
minimize electronic waste mitigating the environmental
impact associated with unnecessary accessories.
The hardwire kit also monitors battery voltage, and it is
designed to cut off power to the dash cam when it detects
low voltage to preserve enough power in the car’s battery
for you to start your car next time.
ANSWER
Before we go into details, please NOTE that
the ROVE Ultimate USB Type-C Hardwire Kit
is required for the parking mode to work.
WHY DO I NEED TO PURCHASE
AN ADDITIONAL HARDWIRE KIT?

Then, when you turn OFF the car’s engine and turn the key
to the lock position.
Then the camera will STOP the continuous video recording
and it will go into the timelapse 1fps recording mode
automatically.
Now while this timelapse is being recorded, If someone
hits your car and the impact reaches the set G-Sensor
level, then the camera will stop the timelapse video > then
it will start to record a 1-min continuous video, save & lock
that video in the EVENT folder > then return to recording
the timelapse 1fps.

Now when you start your car for the next time, the camera
will automatically STOP the timelapse 1fps & G-Sensor
parking mode. Then it will go into normal video mode
automatically to start the continuous video recording.
(When the Parking Mode got activated, the camera will give you a voice
alert stating “Parking Mode got activated while you were away” when you
turn ON your car the next time. If you hear this, you should check the
locked videos to see what happened.)

STOP the Continuous Recording from the normal video
mode.
Then the R2-4K DUAL PRO will turn OFF. However, it
actively senses any impact while the car is turned OFF.
Now, if someone hits your car & if the impact reaches the set
"Parking Mode G-Sensor" level, then >> the dash cam will
turn ON and START RECORDING 1-min video. Then it will
LOCK & SAVE that video in the events folder and turn OFF.
Then the dash cam will be actively sensing any impact until
someone hits your car again (which we hope you won't get hit
twice in one day - LOL) or until you start your car's engine.
When you start your car's engine for the next time, the dash
cam will give you an alert stating that the "Parking Mode Got
Activated While You Were Away" (You will hear an audible
alert & also an on-screen pop-up).
HOW DOES THE "COLLISION DETECTION ONLY"
PARKING MODE WORK?

You will need to tap the OK button on the screen to
acknowledge that pop-up. Then you can check and see
what happened by going through the last event video.
However, let's say No One hits your car, and if the "Parking
Mode G-Sensor" didn't get activated, you will NOT get any
parking mode alert. >> In this case, when you start your
car's engine for the next time, the dash cam will switch to
the normal continuous recording mode, and it will say
"recording started" and the Parking + Timelapse icons will
disappear. This means that now your dash cam is in normal
continuous recording mode, which is what you want.
If you need to watch the activated parking mode videos,
you will find them under the Events folder.
NOTE
The parking mode time-lapse videos will NOT be saved under the
events folder. You can find them under normal video folders.
While in parking mode, the GPS and WiFi are designed to turn off
automatically to save power while in the parking mode.

When this feature is set to ON and ROVE Ultimate USB

Then, when you turn OFF the car’s engine and turn the key
to the lock position.
Then the camera will STOP the continuous video recording
and it will go into the motion detection mode and the camera
will stay ON and idle, but LCD will be off after some seconds.
Now the camera will only record video when it detects
motion in front of the FOV of the camera and then it will
record until there is no more motion is detected.
Now while the camera stays in Motion Detection mode, If
someone hits your car and the impact reaches the set
G-Sensor level, then the camera will stop the motion
detection mode > then it will start to record 1-min
continuous video, save & lock that video in EVENT folder >
then return back to the motion detection mode.
Now when you start your car for the next time, the camera
will automatically STOP the motion detection & G-Sensor
parking mode, and it will go back into normal video mode
automatically to start the continuous video recording.
When the Parking Mode got activated, the camera will give you a voice
alert stating “Parking Mode got activated while you were away” when you
turn ON your car the next time. If you hear this, you should check the
locked videos to see what happened.
NOTE
HOW DOES THE "MOTION DETECTION &
G-SENSOR" PARKING MODE WORK?
Motion Detection & G-Sensor: (See how this feature works)
64
This depends on your various factors and your
personal preference. We will discuss a few most common
scenarios to educate yourself.
For the Parking Mode G-Sensor setting, you can select between
1 to 9 different Gravitational Sensor (G-Sensor) levels.
Where 1 = Lowest (Smallest) Impact Detection and 9 = Higher
(Larger) Impact Detection.
ANSWER
WHAT LEVEL SHOULD I SET MY "PARKING
MODE G-SENSOR" SETTING AT?
1 = Triggers at Lower Impact
2
3
4
5 = Triggers at Medium Impact
6
7
8
9 = Triggers at Higher Impact
65
If you set your parking mode G-Sensor at 1, the dash cam
will be extremely sensitive. Even the lowest vibration, such
as hard tapping the LCD or Closing the Car's Door, will
activate the R2-4K DUAL PRO dash cam.
You would want this if you want your dash cam activated
with the slightest hit to the car.
However, there are downsides to this. Your dash cam will
activate even when you close the car's door while exiting
your vehicle. This will give you false parking mode got
activated alerts. However, the positive side of this is that
your car/dash cam is sensitive to minor bumps/hits to
your car.
If you set your parking mode G-sensor at just the right
setting, where it will NOT trigger the false alerts by closing
your car's door, you will NOT get false signals. Then when
you do get alerts, you know to check the last locked videos
to see what happened because you didn't anticipate the
false alerts.
However, the downside is that your dash cam is not extra
sensitive to more minor bumps/hits because you have set
your G-sensor to a higher level so that you may miss some
smaller bumps/hit events.
However, there is one more positive side; if you have
used time-lapse + collision detection, you should have
your parking mode time-lapse videos saved in normal
folders. So if you suspect someone might have hit your
car or something, then you can still always go look at the
time-lapse videos. We hope this made sense and was
helpful.

Voice guidance is the female voice feedback you receive on your

ROVE R2-4K DUAL PRO has an important failsafe voice feedback if the
camera is not recording the video when it is turned ON and sitting idle.
Therefore the camera will remind you every 30 seconds that it is NOT
recording the video. If you hear this feedback, then you should check and
investigate to see why your camera is NOT recording the video. This
prevents the missed video on an accident when you need the most
because your memory card can fail after a certain life cycle and if you
don’t check daily, you could possibly not know that the camera was only
turned ON but was not recording the video. Therefore to avoid this failure,
we strongly suggest that you keep the Voice Guidance turned ON.

Video is fuzzy
Cameras and they do NOT lag, we stand by our product and we
do extensive testing. Some customers simply thinks the
camera is bad or not stable, but that is NOT the case here. It’s
the Memory Card Issue. Please CONTACT US and we are
dedicated in resolving this for you ASAP.
Please make sure the lens of the camera is clean and there is
no dirt or grease on the windshield also. If the lens is out of
focus, we are extremely sorry in advance. This can be a
manufacturing defect. Please send us an email with a
screenshot or a sample video so we can get this resolved for
you ASAP.
Camera gets HOT
It is normal for your camera to run slightly hot. (Please see
temperature guidelines on page 13)
Please reset your camera. Try updating the firmware again to
see if this fixes the issue. If still having issue, please reach out
to customer care.
Camera turns ON/OFF frequently automatically.
My oldest video files are missing
Your ROVE Dash Cam has Loop Cycle Recording. When it is set
to either 1, 3, 5 or 10-mins, it will delete oldest files and record
newer files over and over when the memory card is full.
To test again: Set the date and time correctly, then FORMAT
the memory card, then do the continuous recording test again
and check if all videos are present.

microSD Card is crooked or not going in slot easily
My Video playback on PC is lagging.
Please change your G-Sensor Setting to higher setting. This
setting depends on type of car or truck you are driving and how
much vibration your car/truck is creating based on suspensions
and road condition.
Please make sure you align microSD card correctly with gold
contacts facing towards the Lens. (See Page 38)

purchased from trusted vendor such as Walmart, target,
best buy, Ship & Sold by Amazon etc. (there are many fake

Now go to camera's system settings and FORMAT your
memory card. (make sure to backup your videos first before
formatting the memory card.) After formatting memory card,
please press and hold power button to turn the camera off.
Now unplug power cable, and re-plug the power cable,
