Sleep/Wake button). Then use a soft, slightly damp, lint-free cloth. Avoid getting moisture in
openings. Don't use window cleaners, household cleaners, aerosol sprays, solvents, alcohol,
ammonia, or abrasives to clean iPod nano.
Charging iPod nano To charge iPod nano, use only the included Apple Dock Connector to USB
Cable with an Apple USB Power Adapter, or a high-power USB port on another device that is
compliant with the USB 2.0 standard; another Apple branded product or accessory designed to
work with iPod nano; or a third-party accessory certied to use Apple’s “Made for iPod” logo.
Read all safety instructions for any products and accessories before using with iPod nano. Apple
is not responsible for the operation of third-party accessories or their compliance with safety and
regulatory standards.
When you use the Apple USB Power Adapter to charge iPod nano, make sure that the power
adapter is fully assembled before you plug it into a power outlet. Then insert the Apple USB Power
Adapter rmly into the power outlet. Do not connect or disconnect the Apple USB Power Adapter
with wet hands.
The Apple USB Power Adapter may become warm during normal use. Always allow adequate
ventilation around the Apple USB Power Adapter and use care when handling. Unplug the
Apple USB Power Adapter if any of the following conditions exist:
The power cord or plug has become frayed or damaged. Â
The adapter is exposed to rain, liquids, or excessive moisture. Â
The adapter case has become damaged. Â
You suspect the adapter needs service or repair. Â
You want to clean the adapter. Â
Avoiding hearing damage Permanent hearing loss may occur if the earbuds or headphones are
used at high volume. Use only compatible earbuds or headphones with iPod nano. Turn on the
audio and check the volume before inserting anything in your ear. You can adapt over time to
a higher volume of sound that may sound normal but can be damaging to your hearing. If you
experience ringing in your ears or mued speech, stop listening and have your hearing checked.
The louder the volume, the less time is required before your hearing could be aected. Hearing
experts suggest that to protect your hearing:
Limit the amount of time you use earbuds or headphones at high volume. Â
Avoid turning up the volume to block out noisy surroundings. Â
Turn the volume down if you can’t hear people speaking near you. Â
For information about how to set a maximum volume limit on iPod nano, see “Setting the
maximum volume limit” on page 24.
