But that did not work at all.
I then tried the same procedure on my Oasis and the Calibre Reader with the same book. Here it worked as expected.
Is it not possible to search for a specific word/phrase in a Kobo Reader?

The books on my Kobo reader are epubs converted to Kepub using the KoboTouchExtended plugin.
Have a look at the code in the eBook and see what may be going on. You will need to look at the KePub.

Another thing to try is loading the ePub and not converting to KePub and try searching.
