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 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 the HD Radio tuner (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.
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.

3. Compatibility Notes
This section will inform you of the specic requirements for your factory radio
to be compatible with the Media Gateway. These notes will inform you of any issues or circumstances that can affect the compatibility of our product with your radio, audio system, or accessories. Not all Factory radios are compatible with the Media Gateway. The Media Gateway will only work on models equipped with
the specications listed below. Please read and understand these notes before
proceeding:
Vehicle Requirements
Vehicle must be trim level “EX” or above. Not compatible with “LX” or “RTL” trim levels. Not compatible with R.S.E. (Rear seat entertainment).
Radio Requirements
Radios must have a button labeled “XM” or “AUX” and be satellite radio ready. This indicates that the required connection is present on the rear of the head unit and that the radio has the necessary functionality to operate the Media Gateway.
Please visit www.peripheralelectronics.com to verify your vehicle’s compatibility.

5. Installation
1. When making electrical connections it is always recommended that the vehicle’s battery be disconnected from the electrical system before performing the installation.
2. Carefully remove the trim panels covering the 8mm bolts that secure the radio into the dash cavity. Remove these bolts, and carefully pull the radio from the dash of the vehicle. This will provide access to the factory radio connectors where you will connect the Media Gateway harness.
3. Disconnect the factory 14-Pin harness (if present) from the back of the radio. Disconnect the antenna from the radio.
4. Connect the 8-Pin iPod docking cable into the rst port on the Media Gateway
(farthest away from dipswitches). Carefully run the 11 foot iPod cable behind the dash to the location where the iPod will be mounted or stored (for example the glove box or center console). This location will vary based on the vehicle, and the customer’s prefrence. When running this cable through the dash be sure to secure it away from moving parts or sharp metal edges that may damage the cable.
5. If connecting the HD Radio Tuner (HDRT sold separartely), make the folllowing connections before connecting the PXAMG to the vehichle. Plug the 3 foot HD Radio Cable (8-Pin mini-din to 8-Pin mini-din) cable into the second port (closest to the dipswitches) on the Media Gateway. Connect the other end of this cable into the HD Radio tuner. Connect the factory antenna cable into the antenna connection on the HD Radio tuner (HDRT).
6. Plug the male connector on the PGHHD1 harness into the 14-pin port on the back of the radio. Next, connect the factory 14-pin harness (if present) into the female
connector on the PGHHD1 harness. Be sure to make a rm connection but do not force it. Plug the Black micro-t 24-pin connector on the PGHHD1 harness into the
PXAMG Media Gateway box.
7. To complete the installation secure the Media Gateway (PXAMG) and HD Radio tuner (HDRT if equipped) into the cavity in the dash behind the radio. Be sure that the cables and interface modules are not near moving parts or sharp metal edges as they may damage the cables. To prevent rattling noises inside the dash, use zip ties, tape, or other fasteners to mount the interfaces securely.
8. With all connections made, reconnect the vehicle’s battery, insert the key into the ignition, and turn the vehicle on. Check for proper operation of the Media Gateway and HD Radio tuner before reinstalling the factory dash panels.
9. Note: The rst time you access the Gateway, your radio may display “DEV INIT”
while the device is initializing. If this is displayed, please wait one minute then cycle the ignition off and on. Then access SAT mode again to begin normal gateway operation.
