For standard operation of the Media Gateway, all four dip-switches need to be OFF
(up) prior to installation. This will provide connectivity for iPod, and HD Radio.

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 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 harness from the back of the radio. Disconnect the antenna
adapter from the radio.
4. Connect the 8-Pin iPod docking cable into the first port on the Media Gateway
furthest 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 customer’s preference.
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 separately) plug the 3 foot HD Radio
Cable (8-Pin to 8-Pin) 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 connectors on the PGHHY2 harness into the ports on the back of the
radio. Next, connect the factory harnesses into the female connectors on the PGHHY2
harness. Be sure to make a firm connection but do not force it. Plug the black micro-fit
24-pin connector on the PGHHY2 harness into the PXAMG Media Gateway box.
