Do not use while driving

Important

Use of headphones while operating a vehicle is not recommended

and is illegal in some areas. Be careful and attentive while driving. Stop listening
to your iPod if you find it disruptive or distracting while operating any type of
vehicle or performing any other activity that requires your full attention.

Using the power adapter
• Use only the power adapter that came with your iPod. Adapters for other

electronic devices may look similar, but they may damage your iPod.

• The only way to shut off power completely to your power adapter is to

disconnect it from the power source.

• Always leave space around your power adapter. Do not use this equipment

in a location where airflow around the power adapter is confined, such as
a bookcase.

• When connecting or disconnecting your power adapter, always hold the

power adapter by its sides. Keep fingers away from the metal part of the plug.

• Before connecting the FireWire cable to the power adapter, make sure there

are no foreign objects inside the adapter’s FireWire port.

• The power adapter for your iPod is a high-voltage component and

should not be opened for any reason, even when the iPod is off. If the
power adapter needs service, see “Learning more, service, and support.”

• Never force a connector into the power adapter FireWire port. If the

connector and port do not join with reasonable ease, they probably don’t
match. Make sure that the connector matches the port and that you have
positioned the connector correctly in relation to the port.
