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

separately), enabling full control of these devices from the factory installed radio.
It also retains original system features such as satellite radio and rear seat
entertainment (if equipped).
2. Precautions
UPDATING iPod FIRMWARE

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

sharp metal edges or direct sunlight. We recommend securing the interface to a
suitable location using; double sided tape, VelcroTM or zip-ties.
