iTunes Tagging The iTunes Tag button on this unit allows you to tag songs you like that are broadcast by HD Radio stations. Information about these tagged songs is stored by the receiver and transferred to your iPod. When you connect your iPod to your computer, iTunes automatically presents songs in a new Tagged playlist so you can preview, buy, and download them. iTunes Tagging is a great way to discover new music, and add it to your collection! Using iTunes Tagging You can save the name of a song broadcast on an HD Radio station to this unit with a few easy steps. After transferring the song information to the connected iPod using this unit, sync your iPod to your computer. These songs will show up in a "Tagged" playlist in iTunes, enabling easy preview or purchase of songs. For details on iTunes Tagging and the latest iTunes Tagging compatible models, check the iTunes website at - http://www.apple.com/itunes/ For details on purchasing a song using "Tagged" information, check the iTunes website at - http:// www.apple.com/support/itunes/ Retrieving song information The Tag indicator lights up when song information is broadcast on an HD Radio station. 1 Press (TAG) when it is lit. The TAG button starts blinking and the unit starts retrieving song information. After retrieving the song information, the unit starts saving the data, and "STORE" appears in the display for 2 seconds. The TAG button blinks while saving the song information. The TAG button light goes off after the unit completes saving the song information. The TAG button lights up again at the beginning of the next song. Notes • If the song information is not included in the HD Radio station broadcast, the Tag indicator does not light up. • It takes about 10 seconds maximum to retrieve song information. • If the TAG button is pressed right after the beginning of a song, the unit may retrieve the information of the previously broadcast song as well as the current song. • If the TAG button is pressed just before the end of a song, the unit may retrieve the information of the next song, in addition to the current song. 14 • The maximum number of tagged songs that you can save to this unit is 50. If you press the TAG button when 50 tagged songs are already saved, "MEMORY FULL" will appear in the display and song information will not be retrieved.

Notes • Do not remove the iPod or open the front panel while "TRANSFER" is blinking in the display.
