How to pair your battery to your Cloud-connected dash cam

To pair your battery with your Cloud-compatible dash cam, you must be within wireless range of your battery (for the initial pairing only). Once paired you will be able to access the battery data over the Cloud, as the dash cam will act as a relay between your phone and your battery. Of course, it is understood that your battery must be in range of your dash cam at all time.

1. Tap +Battery under your Cloud dash cam name.

2. Tap OK to confirm.

3. Select the battery to pair with your dash cam.

4. Confirm when prompted to pair the battery.

5. Once the pairing process is done, tap Continue.

6. Check your battery level in the Cameras tab.

Note on notifications:

The low-power Push Notifications are activated automatically by default once you pair the battery with your dash cam.
To manage the Push Notifications, sent by your BlackVue, tap the bell icon under your camera’s name to access the Notifications menu, then the gear icon –> Push Notifications –> scroll all the way down where you will find the Battery Capacity notification toggle.
