Searching for a desired Song

An iPod can contain hundreds of songs. By keeping these songs
organized in playlists, the IVA-W505 can use these to ease song
searches.
Using the search mode’s individual hierarchy, you can narrow down
your search as shown in the table below.

iPod is changed, the search mode on this unit will also be changed.
