later through iTunes. When the onscreen TAG button (24) is
touched, the unit stores the title and artist song information
that can then be transferred to your iPod when connected to

the MediaLink
. A list titled "Tagged" will appear in iTunes,
allowing you the option to purchase your tagged songs.

Tagging Music
To begin tagging music, tune to an HD Radio station. The HD
icon at the top of the display must be illuminated, indicating a
digital station is being received. Touch the onscreen TAG
button or press the MENU/TAG button on the remote control.
"Adding Tag..." will appear in the display. The song
information is saved to the VM9423 memory until an iPod is
connected. When the first tag is successful, the bottom of the
screen displays "Tag Stored 1 of 64". You can tag up to 64
songs before the tags must be transferred to an iPod or
deleted. When the Tag memory reaches capacity (64 tags)
the bottom of the screen displays "Memory Full, Connect
iPod".
