Excellent quality but speaks too loud and much

Footage quality is excellent for this 4K dashcam but it speaks too loud in startups, even though you can shut it up, is there any 0.5 level of volume?

One of the best dashcams on the market Thinkware U1000

I bought this for a gift for my sister-in-law for Christmas. Based on my experience with my own U1000 it’s helps me feel comfortable driving the car having a silent witness. I recommend a dashcam to everybody out there. I think it should be standard equipment for cars just like a black box in a plane.
