Searching for a desired Song/Title An iPod can contain hundreds of songs. By keeping these songs organized in playlists, the iDA-X001 can use these to ease song searches. Using the Playlist/Artist/Album/Podcast/Audiobook/Genre/Composer/ Song search mode's individual hierarchy, you can narrow down your search as shown in the table below. Hierarchy 1 Playlists Artists Albums Podcasts Audiobooks* Genres Composers Songs Hierarchy 2 Songs Albums Songs Episodes - Artists Albums - Hierarchy 3 - Songs - - - Albums Songs - Hierarchy 4 - - - - - Songs - - * Only when connected via USB. • E.g., if there is only an album in the selected artist when USB is connected, the song search mode is selected in such a way that the album search mode is skipped. • You can select your preferred search mode. Refer to "iPod Search Mode Setting" (page 22). For example: Searching by Artist name The following example explains how an ARTIST search is performed. Another search mode can be used for the same operation, although the hierarchy differs. 1 Press /SEARCH to activate the Menu Select mode. 2 Turn the Center Jog Dial to select the Artists, and then press ENT. The artist search mode is activated and an artist name is displayed. 3 Turn the Center Jog Dial to select the desired Artist, and then press ENT. The album search mode is activated and an album name is displayed. 4 Turn the Center Jog Dial to select an album, and then press ENT. The song search mode is activated and a song name is displayed. 5 Turn the Center Jog Dial to select a song and press ENT.

If you press and hold ENT for at least 2 seconds, all songs in the iPod are played back beginning from the first song listed. • "No Support" is displayed when text information is not compatible with the iDA-X001. • When a list is displayed, you can use the page skip or initial skip function. For details, refer to "Page Skip Function/Initial Skip Function (USB connection only)" (page 11). • During the search mode, if you select All and press ENT, you can search for all titles in the next hierarchy. If you select All, and press and hold for at least 2 seconds, all titles in the selected hierarchy are played back repeatedly.
