Important: If a “Charging, Please Wait” or “Connect to Power” message appears on the
iPod classic screen, the battery needs to be charged before iPod classic can
communicate with your computer. See “If iPod classic displays a “Connect to Power”
message” on page 60.
If you want to charge iPod classic when you’re away from your computer, you can
purchase the Apple USB Power Adapter.
To charge the battery using the Apple USB Power Adapter:
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 classic.
3 Plug the power adapter into a working electrical outlet.
WARNING: Make sure the power adapter is fully assembled before plugging it into an
electrical outlet.
