Step 1: Adding the Dash Cam to the KAWA AUTO App
1. Install and Open the KAWA AUTO App:
- Ensure that you have the latest version of the KAWA AUTO app installed on your phone.
- Open the KAWA AUTO App.
2. Add the Dash Cam:
- On the app's main page, find and tap on the plus icon (usually used for adding new devices).
- Select the image that matches your dash cam's model from the list of devices.
3. Connect to the Dash Cam's Wi-Fi:
- Follow the on-screen instructions to connect to the dash cam's Wi-Fi hotspot in your phone's WLAN settings.
- The Wi-Fi hotspot name is typically "KAWA_DXX_XXXX," please check the device label for the specific hotspot name.
- Enter the default password "12345678" or the password provided on the device label.
4. Complete Authorization:
- Follow the on-screen prompts to complete the authorization process.
- Once added successfully, the dash cam's home screen will be displayed within the KAWA AUTO app.
5. Troubleshooting
- If unable to connect, check that the password entered is correct.
- Try turning off and on your phone's Wi-Fi switch.
- Ensure that you have followed the on-screen prompts to complete authorization.
- If issues persist, try forgetting the dash cam's Wi-Fi hotspot in your phone's WLAN settings and reconnect.
6. Unbinding the Device (if needed):
- Open the KAWA AUTO app.
- Tap on the more icon (usually three dots) on the dash cam card.
- Select "Unbind Device" from the options that pop up.
Step 2: Connecting to an Already Added Dash Cam
1. Connect to Wi-Fi:
- When the KAWA AUTO app has already added the dash cam and displays its device information, turn on your phone's Wi-Fi.
- Find and connect to the dash cam's Wi-Fi hotspot in your phone's WLAN settings.
2. Ensure Wi-Fi Hotspot is Available:
- If your phone cannot find the Wi-Fi, ensure that the dash cam is on and its Wi-Fi hotspot is enabled.
- In the dash cam's settings, you can enable the "Wi-Fi Always On" option so that whenever the dash cam is turned on, the Wi-Fi automatically turns on. (This is usually turned on by default.)
3. Return to the KAWA AUTO App:
- Once connected, return to the KAWA AUTO app.
- You should now be able to see the connected dash cam in the app and access its related features and data.
