Searching for a desired Song
An iPhone/iPod can contain hundreds of songs. By keeping these songs
organized in playlists, the iXA-W404R 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.

• You can select your preferred search mode. Refer to “iPod Search
Mode Setting” (page 18).
