WARNING:

Failure to follow these safety instructions could result in fire, electric shock, injury,

or damage to iPod nano or other property. Read all the safety information below before using
iPod nano.

Important safety information

Handling Handle iPod nano with care. It is made of metal, glass, and plastic and has sensitive
electronic components inside. iPod nano can be damaged if dropped, burned, punctured, or
crushed, or if it comes in contact with liquid. Don’t use a damaged iPod nano, such as when the
screen is cracked, as it may cause injury. If you’re concerned about scratching, consider using
a case.
Repairing Don’t open iPod nano and don’t attempt to repair iPod nano yourself. Disassembling
iPod nano may damage it or may cause injury to you. If iPod nano is damaged, malfunctions or
comes in contact with liquid, contact Apple or an Apple Authorized Service Provider. You can find
more information about getting service at

.

Battery Don’t attempt to replace the battery in iPod nano yourself as you may damage the
battery which could cause overheating and injury. The lithium-ion battery in iPod nano should
be replaced only by Apple or an Apple Authorized Service Provider, and must be recycled or
disposed of separately from household waste. Don’t incinerate the battery. For information about
battery recycling and replacement, go to

Distraction Using iPod nano in some circumstances can distract you and may cause a
dangerous situation (for example, using headphones while riding a bicycle). Observe rules that
prohibit or restrict the use of headphones.
Charging Charge iPod nano with the included cable and optional power adapter or other third-
party Made for iPod cable and power adapters that are compatible with USB 2.0 or later. Using
damaged cables or chargers, or charging when moisture is present, can cause, fire, electric shock,
injury, or damage to iPod nano or other property. When you use the Apple Lightning to USB
Cable to charge iPod nano, make sure that the AC plug or AC power cord is fully inserted into the
adapter before you plug it into a power outlet.
Lightning cable and connector Avoid prolonged skin contact with the connector when the
Lightning to USB Cable is plugged into a power source because it may cause discomfort or
injury. Situations such as sleeping or sitting on the Lightning connector should be avoided.
