iTunes® Tagging
The VM9413 offers iTunes® Tagging, which allows the user to "Tag" songs playing on HD Radio™ stations for purchase 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 MediaLink4. 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 VM9413 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”.

Downloading Tags to your iPod
To download tags to your iPod, plug an iPod into the iPod
jLink3 and then into the MediaLink4 iPod connector. All existing tags are automatically transferred to the iPod and deleted from the head unit's memory. If an iPod is connected when a song is tagged, the Tag will be immediately transferred to the iPod.
NOTE: When transferring Tags to an iPod, the VM9413 must remain in Radio mode until the “## Tag(s) Sent” message is displayed. To purchase tagged songs, you must sync your iPod to iTunes and then click the "Tagged" list on the left side of the iTunes software screen. Click the "view" button for purchasing information.
