Music Mode Practice Run

Start at your computer. You will need some MP3 or Ogg Vorbis music
files. If you need help ripping your CDs to these formats consult the
documentation for the CD ripper software.
1. Insert an MMC or SD Card in your iWAY and connect the iWAY to

your computer as described in the supplemental instruction sheet.

Turn the unit on and browse to the card.
2. Select a few of your favorite songs and copy them onto the card. For

now, copy only a few songs and place them in the card’s root directory.

Later, you might prefer to set up subfolders in the music drive and or-

ganize your music by artist, album or genre.
3. Once the songs are copied, disconnect the iWAY from your computer,

carefully observing the instructions in the supplemental document.

Move the iWAY to your car.
4. Turn the unit on by pressing the

POWER

key. Remember, when the

MMC card containing mapping data is removed the unit's map mode

will not work. You must have the MMC card with the mapping data in

the unit for the map mode to work.
5. If the Map Mode opens up press the

ENU

button in the top left corner

of the screen then choose the

USIC

button to switch to Music Mode.

6. Touch the screen inside the Now Playing box at the top of the screen

to see a list of the songs available on your card. These should match the

songs you just copied. Using the touch screen choose a song from the

list.
7. The song should begin to play.
8. Cancel the song currently playing by pressing

TOP

. To have iWAY

create a play list of all of the songs in the music folder press the

LAY

button with no song selected. The iWAY will begin playing the first

song in its music directory.
9. The buttons to the right of the Visualization Area control the Repeat

and Shuffle options. Press

HUFFLE

to toggle it on. The button should

turn yellow. Now press

EXT

ONG

and the iWAY will randomly choose a

song from the card.
10. Now you can return to your computer and add more songs or play

lists to your iWAY. To turn off the unit press and hold the

for three seconds.
