Any electrical work should be performed only by a suitably trained and qualified automotive technician with qualification applicable to your country/ region/ state; and with an expertise in installing and troubleshooting advanced onboard components, including multiplexed circuits. Lytx, Inc. disclaims.
Read and follow the instructions and precautions in this guide and all documents referenced in this guide when installing the Surfsight® dashcam device(s). Always refer to the vehicle manufacturer’s service manual for proper installation and wiring of any aftermarket devices, including the Lytx device. Failure to do so may result in property damage and/or personal injury.
Adherence to Applicable Local, State and Federal Laws
Warning
Some countries/regions/jurisdictions have adopted, or may in the future adopt, laws that prohibit objects from being mounted on a vehicle’s windshield or other locations in a vehicle. Always refer to any applicable laws that concern mounting devices on vehicle windshields before choosing a mounting location. You are responsible for complying with such laws, as Lytx, Inc. does not accept responsibility for your failure to do so.
Warning
In order to reduce the potential danger of injuries, the driver and front passenger must always be correctly seated with seat belts correctly fastened when operating the vehicle.
DISCLAIMER: The Lytx device is a driver aid only, not a substitute for a safe, conscientious driver. The Lytx device cannot compensate for a driver who is distracted, inattentive or impaired by fatigue, drugs or alcohol. Whether or not the Lytx device is in use, it is always the responsibility of the driver to take appropriate corrective action. Never wait for the device to provide a warning before taking measures to avoid an accident. Failure to do so can result in serious personal injury or death or severe property damage. Always, it is the driver’s responsibility to:
-
Use safe driving techniques
-
Exercise proper judgment
-
Maintain a safe speed and distance between vehicles
-
Take measures to avoid an accident
-
Comply with all applicable laws and regulations
Warning
The ability for the Lytx device to issue a warning, including a visual and/or audible alert may be limited. In certain conditions, including inclement weather, low visibility, certain road conditions (including poor lane markings, construction zones, dirt roads, heavy or complicated traffic, and curvy and winding roads), the Lytx device may have limited to no functionality. Further, certain factors within the vehicle, including the body positioning of the driver and/or passengers and other in-vehicle equipment, can impact the ability for the Lytx device to issue a warning. The Lytx device may not detect certain objects such as motorcyclists, bicyclists or pedestrians even in the most ideal conditions. Always keep the lens and view of the Lytx device unobstructed and properly calibrated so as not to inhibit function. Driving in certain conditions or any interference with the Lytx device can result in false, few or no warnings. The driver must always monitor traffic and surroundings and take measures to avoid an accident; failure to do so can result in serious personal injury or death or severe property damage.
Warning
The Surfsight® dashcams comply with the user-accessible surface temperature limits defined by the International Standards for Safety IEC 62368. However, they may become warm during normal use, and prolonged contact with warm surfaces can cause discomfort or injury. To minimize any potential heat-related issues, please avoid touching the dashcam's lens surface.
Warning
If the Lytx device is not functioning properly at any time, please contact your supervisor and have the device inspected immediately to correct the issue. Whether or not the Lytx device is functioning, it is the driver’s responsibility to maintain vehicle control; failure to do so can result in serious personal injury or death or severe property damage.
Caution
While cleaning the device or the vehicle cab, do not apply compressed air or cleaning solutions (such as Windex) to the Lytx device. Usage of these products may cause damage to the device.
Warning
The optional livestream feature may have an approximate delay of 10 seconds. Livestream should never be used to assist the driver in operating the vehicle. The driver is responsible for the safe operation of the vehicle at all times and must always take measures to avoid a collision.
