GKU Manuals & User Guides

GKU is a consumer electronics brand specializing in automotive safety devices, primarily high-performance dash cameras. The company offers a range of recording solutions, including 4K front and rear dual-channel cameras, mirror dash cams, and compact recorders designed to capture crystal-clear footage day or night.

GKU products are known for integrating modern features such as Sony STARVIS sensors for superior night vision, built-in GPS for tracking speed and location, and 5GHz WiFi connectivity for seamless video transfer via the GKU GO app. Additionally, the brand provides dedicated hardwire kits to enable 24-hour parking surveillance, ensuring vehicle security even when the engine is off.

• How do I format the SD card on my GKU dash cam?

  Most GKU dash cams require the SD card to be formatted directly within the device or via the GKU GO app before first use. Navigate to Camera Settings > Format SD Card while connected to the camera's WiFi.

• How do I connect the GKU dash cam to my phone?

  Turn on the camera's WiFi in the settings menu. On your phone, connect to the WiFi network (e.g., GKU_D600_XXXX), enter the default password '12345678', and open the GKU GO app to access videos.

• Does the GKU dash cam record while parked?

  Standard recording stops when the car is turned off. For 24-hour parking monitoring, you must install a dedicated hardwire kit (connected to the car's fuse box) to provide continuous power and enable collision detection or time-lapse modes.

• Why does my screen turn off while driving?

  This is likely due to the 'Screensaver' setting, designed to prevent distraction at night. You can turn this feature off in the settings menu if you prefer the screen to stay on.

• What app does GKU use?

  Most models utilize the 'GKU GO' app available on the App Store and Google Play. Some specific models may reference the 'YUTUCAM' app; check your user manual for the specific requirement.
