may 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 mini-din to 8-Pin mini-din) into the second port (closest to the dipswitches) on the Neo Gateway. Connect the other end of this cable into the HD Radio tuner. Connect the factory WHITE antenna cable into the antenna connection on the HD Radio tuner (HDRT). For best performance of the HDRT use an amplified antenna adaptor to make this connection. We recommend the use of a Best Kits BAADIN22 or equivalent. If the Tan connector is connected into the HDRT it will not receive any AM reception.

6.Plug the male connector on the VW1 harness into the port on the back of the radio. Next, connect the factory harness into the female connector on the VW1 harness. Be sure to make a firm connection but do not force it. Plug the black micro-fit 24-pin connector on the VW1 harness into the

Gateway Neo Gateway box.

7.To complete the installation secure the Neo Gateway (Gateway) and HD Radio tuner (HDRT) into the cavity behind the dash. 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, or electrical tape, or other fasteners to mount the interfaces to the factory wiring or installed audio components (for example under the factory Satellite tuner (if present).

8.With all connections made, reconnect the vehicle’s battery, insert the key into the ignition, and turn the vehicle on. Check for proper operation of the Neo Gateway and HD Radio tuner before reinstalling the factory dash panels.

9.When first powering up the vehicle with the radio reconnected, “CODE” may appear on the screen. This is a safety feature of the VW radio. If you see this message, DO NOT enter a code, simply let the radio sit on this screen for about 10 seconds, then turn the vehicle off. Disconnect the gateway harness from the vehicle. Reconnect the gateway harness to the vehicle. Normal operation should resume.

10.NOTE: The first time that you access the Gateway, your radio may display “DEV INIT” while the device is initializing. If this is displayed, please wait one minute the cycle the ignition off and on. Access “SAT” mode again to begin normal gateway operation.
