NTRODUCTION
Gateway Lite BT
enables music playback from a
USB storage or iPod through your vehicle’s
entertainment system, using the buttons of the
car stereo for basic control.
This device also offers handsfree mobile call
handling via the original buttons of the Head Unit
(Radio).
Gateway Lite BT is designed to give easy to
manage control, in cars where it is not possible
to display text, therefore only basic control is
available (track skip functions and USB folder
browsing).

NSTALLATION
Fitting the microphone
The microphone will work best when it is kept
away from all noise sources (open windows or
speaker) and close to the speaker. So the best
place to ensure perfect sound is to install at the
central light cluster or rear view mirror in the
center of the wind screen. There are clips that
help you to do this.
The optimal place for the microphone depends
on many factors, so it is recommended that you
try different installation places before finally
mounting the microphone
