From unboxing and charging to preparing a microSD card, installing the device, connecting to the app, and checking recorded footage, this guide covers the essential steps required before you begin using the device.

For more detailed settings and specifications, please refer to the User Manual.

Introduction

What Is the AKY-730PRO?

The AKY-730PRO is a wireless 4K quick-release camera designed for motorcycles and bicycles.

It features a Sony STARVIS 2 image sensor, image stabilization, water resistance, GPS, and a touchscreen display. With clear and stable footage, it records important moments during your ride, including lane changes, overtaking, intersections, road conditions, and unexpected incidents.

Designed specifically for real-world road use, this riding camera is easy to install, protects important recordings, and allows you to review and download footage through the app.

The device is equipped with a touchscreen, GPS, a microSD card slot, a USB Type-C port, a waterproof charging port, LED indicators, and a reset hole.

Before use, make sure that you have the following items:

• AKY-730PRO main unit
• Waterproof charging cable
• A mount suitable for your riding environment
• Safety tether
• microSD card
• AKEEYO smartphone app

For first-time use, we recommend fully charging the device, checking the microSD card, installing the device, and then connecting it to the app.

• To record while charging, a power source with an output of at least 1.1W is required.
• When using a power bank, make sure that it has sufficient remaining capacity and output.

About Fast Charging

Fast charging is supported when the waterproof charging cable is connected directly to a USB Type-A port.

When using a USB Type-C adapter to connect the cable to a Type-C power source, fast charging may not work properly depending on the specifications of the power source.

GPS

GPS Positioning Is Not Complete and the Speed Indicator Continues to Flash

A flashing speed indicator means that GPS positioning is still in progress.

• Move outdoors to an open area with a clear view of the sky.
• Avoid tall buildings, tunnels, roofs, and metal structures.
• Keep the device turned on and wait approximately 5 to 15 minutes.
• GPS positioning is complete when the speed display stops flashing and the displayed number begins to change.
• Until positioning is complete, the speed, travel distance, and direction may not be displayed correctly.

GPS Positioning Takes a Long Time

GPS positioning may take longer when the device is used for the first time or has not been used for an extended period.

This is not a malfunction. Wait approximately 5 to 15 minutes in an open area with a clear view of the sky.

The Speed Display Shows 0 km/h Inside a Tunnel

This is normal.

Because GPS signals cannot be received inside a tunnel, the speed display may show 0 km/h.

The display will recover automatically after leaving the tunnel and receiving a GPS signal again.

Videos Recorded Inside a Tunnel Are Saved as Emergency Recordings

If vehicle vibration is detected while the GPS signal is lost, impact detection may be activated and the video may be saved as an emergency recording.

If this happens frequently, reduce the impact detection sensitivity in the app.

Device Temperature

The Device Becomes Warm During Recording

The device may become warm during high-resolution recording because the video-processing chip is operating.

This is normal.

However, observe the following precautions:

• Do not touch the heat-dissipation area on the bottom of the main unit for an extended period.
• Avoid using the device under intense sunlight or in an enclosed space.
• If the device behaves abnormally after prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, stop using it and allow it to cool completely.
• If the device remains excessively hot, reduce the recording resolution and check whether the condition improves.

Mounts and Accessories

The Garmin-Standard Quick-Release Adapter Has Come Loose

• Check the adapter mounting screws on the bottom of the main unit.
• Check whether the screws on the mount side are loose.
• Retighten the screws.
• If the adapter or mount is damaged, deformed, or detached, stop using it.
• Contact customer support and provide photos.
