12 Chapter 1 iPod nano Basics
If the battery icon on the iPod nano screen shows a lightning bolt, the battery is
charging. If it shows a plug, the battery is fully charged.
If you don’t see the lightning bolt or the plug, iPod nano might not be connected to a
high-power USB port. Try another USB port on your computer.
If you want to charge iPod nano when you’re away from your computer, you can
purchase the iPod USB Power Adapter.
To charge the battery using the iPod USB Power Adapter (available separately):
1 Connect the AC plug adapter to the power adapter (they might already be connected).
2 Connect the iPod Dock Connector to USB 2.0 Cable to the power adapter, and plug the
other end of the cable into iPod nano.
3 Plug the power adapter into a working electrical outlet.
Note: If you have an optional iPod Dock Connector to FireWire cable, you can also
connect iPod nano to a FireWire port on your computer or to an iPod Power Adapter
(with a FireWire port) that’s plugged into an electrical outlet. You can use FireWire only
for charging the battery and not for downloading songs and other files to iPod nano.
Warning: Make sure the power adapter is fully assembled before plugging it into an
electrical outlet.
