TROUBLE SHOOTING PROBLEM SOLUTION Video Image is blurred. Remove the protective lens cover, clean the lens, clean the wind deflector screen! I can not insert the Micro SD card. Micro SD card are very small and require delicate use. Align the card with the diagram shown upon the device and insert the card until you feel a slight spring resistance. You now need to push the card, using your finger nail, until you hear and feel a small latch.
TROUBLE SHOOTING (CONTD.) PROBLEM SOLUTION No power to my BikeCam, but it works upon my PC. The cigarette power cable or hard-wire cable is not working. Inspect the fuse in the Car Power plug / hard-wire. Replacement fuse = 2A 20mm type. If the fuse is found to be blown, inspect the power cable for damage which may have caused the fuse blow. The SD card in my BikeCam can not be read. Use a good quality branded SD card between 4GB and 32GB and format the card from with in the SETUP menu of the BikeCam.
TROUBLE SHOOTING (CONTD.) PROBLEM The LCD screen on my BikeCam gets condensation inside. SOLUTION Not a serious issue. This is due to a combination of warm air inside the BikeCam and the cold air outside, especially whilst riding with the wind chill. Leaving the BikeCam indoors overnight with the SD card slot uncovered in a dry environment will reduce the moisture inside the BikeCam.
