which has already been randomly indexed during the indexing process.

all of the music has been indexed by SYNC. Depending on the size of the
material, this may take a few minutes.
Bluetooth enabled cellular phone:Any cellular phone which has the
Bluetoothwireless technology which will enable the phone to connect
with SYNC and exchange information wirelessly.

signify any of the following media devices: iPod

device” players, and most USB drives (thumb drives, flash drives, PEN
drives, etc.)
Discoverable mode:A mode which allows otherBluetoothenabled
devices to find yourBluetoothenabled device.
Discovery mode:A mode which allows yourBluetoothenabled device
to search for other ‘discoverable’Bluetoothenabled devices.
In-band ringing:This is a phone dependent feature. If yourBluetooth

process is used to generate a link key that is used for authentication
purposes during subsequentBluetoothconnections between the two
devices.

(sometimes referred to as a passkey) will be shown in the radio display
