How do I start/stop an automatic recording with the Drive Recorder in my MINI?

Starting/stopping an automatic recording

If the vehicle sensors detect an accident or theft, the Drive Recorder starts recording automatically and then saves this recording.

– In the event of an accident, the Drive Recorder saves recordings up to 30 seconds before and after storage is triggered.

– In the event of theft, the Drive Recorder saves recordings after being triggered. Recordings are stored depending on the setting selected for recording duration.

When the alarm system is triggered, a message is sent to the MINI app. After saving the recording, the reduced quality video can be downloaded to a mobile device. If the vehicle accelerates rapidly, an automatic recording may be taken
