I am a Toyota owner living in Finland. I found this community through Googling.
I checked https://www.toyota.co.uk/new-cars/corolla-touring-sports and it fortunately has the same name as the car I own.

I bought a new 2023 Corolla Touring Sport 1.8 model. While checking the information to install the dash cam, the fuse box inside the room is too unfamiliar with the information I usually know, so I am asking here.

I have attached a map of the interior fuse box for reference by other users as well.

I have to choose BAT power and ACC power, but I plan to use 'DOME' for BAT power. I think 'DOME' means indoor ceiling light. Then the problem is the ACC power, but I can't decide which one to use as ACC. What is printed here is too concise for a clear understanding of its meaning.
So I would like to ask here which ones can be used as an ACC power source.

Can you help me please?

 

I guess 'P/Outlet' is for you ACC power. I guess..... P/Outlet mean plug outlet port(cigar jack).......

 

Thank you in advance.

ACC means accesory power but this will switch off when you lock the car.

Its only live when you in accesory mode or power on to drive vehicle.

I prefer a seperate power source for Dashcam using its own Battery but one that can pick up a charge from accesory socket.

Some dashcams have provision for a internal Battery to give you lets say 10 minuites recording time after you park up.

You dont want it to run down your normal 12 car Battery to find it wont start one day.

Thanks for commenting.

I also have experience in the past where the vehicle Battery was discharged due to the operation of the dash cam.
The Dashcam I bought this time has a function to automatically cut off the power of the Dashcam when the Battery voltage drops below a certain level, so I think I can rest assured.
Since I can select whether to record continuously, I can turn off continuous recording if long-term leaving is expected.

I mean ACC, which refers to the power normally used in the car, where the power is also turned off when the vehicle engine is turned off.  🙂
