1. Introduction

Thank you for purchasing the 

®

 Neo Gateway. The Neo 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 Neo Gateway.

The Neo Gateway allows connectivity for iPod and the HD Radio tuner (HDRT sold 

separately), enabling full control of these devices from the factory installed radio.  

It also retains original satellite radio (if equipped). 

2. Precautions

UPDATING iPod FIRMWARE

For proper operation of the Neo 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.
