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. The Media Gateway allows
connectivity for iPod, Sirius Satellite Radio tuner (SCC1 sold seperately)
and 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 firmware 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, Velcro
TM or
zip-ties.
