I haven't become familiar with the info format until now.
As acceptable workaround even for long manuals I usually
search for the keyword as first word in a line (where it
likely introduces the paragraph describing it).

In this case it works as well:
/<blank><blank><blank>@


Quite interesting dilemma, that while you are (well, at least me)
thinking of $VAR, it's usually about VAR outside of nerd writing :)
