Basically you use your pen and click with it on the screen. The circle shows the area it's searching on, so you have to click around to see the whole screen, plus walk around every so often to search on other places. ^^ Where the two lines meet is where you are, and you use this to find the item.
The most common thing to happen when an item is found is for a big dot to show up within the circle, so you move until you're in front of the spot that the item is on.
Another thing to happen is for a smaller dot to come. Those are harder to spot on the Pokétch, so look closely.
A third thing to happen is for the circle to come up over and over and over again without you doing a thing. In this case you have to search. You can click on many places on the screen to see where about the item is. Where the circle comes often and where not, then just look.
