In Direct Mode: Search and select songs directly on the iPod.
3. Maintain current playlist when switching from portable use to in-car use.
4. Charge the iPod internal battery — and to prevent battery-drain, charging automatically ends one hour after iPod is paused

6. Plug-n-Play: This complete package includes installation cables, mounting screws and user’s manual.
