Direct Search Function
The unit’s direct search function can be used to search for an album, 
song, etc., more efficiently. In Playlist/Artist/Album/Song/Podcast/ 
Genre/Composer mode, you can quickly target any song.
In the search mode, press any one of the preset 
buttons (1 through 6) to quickly skip over a 
designated percent of your song content. 
Song search example:
If there are 100 songs in your iPod, they are divided into 6 
groups using percentages (shown below). These groups are 
assigned to the preset buttons (1 through 6).
Example 1:
Suppose the song you are searching for is located at around 
the middle (50%) of your library: press button 4 to jump to the 
50th song and turn the Rotary encoder to find the desired 
song.
Example 2:
Suppose the song you are searching for is located near the 
end (83%) of your library: press button 6 to jump to the 83rd 
song and turn the Rotary encoder to find the desired song.
