entertainment system, using the buttons of the
car stereo for basic control.

mobile call handling via the original buttons of the
Head Unit (Radio).
Gateway Blue 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
The Bluetooth Dongle
The Bluetooth dongle is factory inserted to the
relevant USB port. Please do not remove or
replace the original dongle.
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
centre 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.
