Searching for a desired Song/Title
An iPod can contain thousands of songs. The unit for this reason can
make various searches using the search function us shown below.
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.
• You can select your preferred search mode. Refer to “iPod Search
Mode Setting” (page 25).
• For example, if the selected artist has only one album, the song
search mode is selected immediately, skipping the album search
mode.
