1. Introduction Thank you for purchasing the iSimple® 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.
3. Compatibility Your vehicle MUST either be equipped with, or have the ability to support Satellite Radio. Please visit www.isimplesolutions.com for the most up to date application information and to verify your vehicle’s compatibility. 4. Dipswitch Settings All 4 dipswitches MUST be set in the OFF (up) position for proper operation.
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 7mm 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.
8. To complete the installation secure the Media Gateway (PXAMG) and HD Radio tuner (HDRT) 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 to the factory wiring or installed audio components. 9.
