1. Placement: Ensure that the dashcam is installed in a location that does not obstruct the heated elements on the windscreen. It is recommended to install the dashcam either on the sides of the windscreen or closer to the rearview mirror area, where the heating elements are less likely to be present.
2. Power source: Dashcams typically require power from the vehicle's electrical system. Some dashcams have a separate power cable, while others use the vehicle's cigarette lighter socket (12V power outlet). Make sure that you connect the dashcam's power source without interfering with any wiring for the heated windscreen. Ideally, consult a professional installer or refer to the vehicle's manual for guidance on wiring and power connection.
3. Interference: Heated windscreen systems generate a mild electrical current that runs through the windscreen's conductive elements. While this should not directly interfere with the dashcam's operation, it is advisable to choose a dashcam model that has good shielding against electromagnetic interference (EMI) to minimize any potential signal disruption.
If you are uncertain about the installation process or worried about any potential issues, it is recommended to consult a professional installer or reach out to the manufacturer or authorized dealer for guidance specific to your Tiguan model.
