I've tried c-x and m-x and > not sure how this one works. First, bravo for trying, and then asking for help. `i' is bound to command `Info-index' when in Info mode. So to use it you need to first be visiting a manual (in this case, the Elisp manual) in Info mode. To do that: `C-h i' invokes command `info'. Then choose the Elisp manual. Then use `i' to find something that is in the index, in this case `interactive'.
