BASIC FUNCTIONS
Resume Play
The “Resume Play” feature allows the iPod to play the cur-
rent musical selection (Play queue) when connecting to the
Interface Kit. If the play queue was empty, the Interface Kit
plays the entire iPod.

edly until another selection is made.
Music Search
The user can make media selections from the iPod from a
preselected list of categories (Playlist, Artist, Album, Genre,
Podcast and Audiobook). The radio SAT controls coincide
with similar functions on the iPod.
Text Display
The interface utilizes the same text elds provided for the
satellite radio. For each song, the radio displays a track num-
ber, artist name and song title information. This corresponds
to the SAT channel number, artist name and song title re-
spectively.
