1. Introduction
Thank you for purchasing the Peripheral Electronics® Media Gateway.
The Media Gateway is designed to provide endless hours of listening
pleasure from your factory radio. To ensure that your HD Radio tuner or
iPod performs correctly with your radio, we recommend that you read this
entire manual before attempting installation of the Media Gateway. The
Media Gateway allows connectivity for iPod and HD Radio (HDRT sold
separately), enabling full control of these devices from the factory installed
radio. It also retains original system features such as Satellite Radio
(if equipped).
2. Precautions
UPDATING iPod FIRMWARE
For proper operation of the Media Gateway, your iPod must be updated
with the most recent version of rmware from Apple. This is done on your
computer. To update the software on the iPod go to:
http://www.apple.com/ipod/download/.
Follow the directions on the website to complete the download. There is no
charge for this update.
PREVENTING DAMAGE TO YOUR VEHICLE OR iPod.
Some installations require you to make wiring connections. To eliminate the
risk of an electrical short, we recommend disconnecting the vehicle’s battery
prior to installation. If you do not feel comfortable making these connections,
we suggest you seek professional installation. We recommend that the iPod
be disconnected from the interface when the vehicle is not in use.
PROPER MOUNTING LOCATION
Securely install the interface in a location free from; heat, humidity, moving
parts, sharp metal edges or direct sunlight. We recommend securing
the interface to a suitable location using; double sided tape, VelcroTM or
zip-ties.
