Plug the power adapter into a working power outlet.

Rechargeable batteries have a limited number of charge cycles. Battery life
and number of charge cycles vary by use and settings. For information, go to
www.apple.com/batteries.

Checking the Battery Status

You can check the battery status of iPod shuffle when it’s connected to your computer
or disconnected. The status light tells you approximately how much charge is in the
battery.

If iPod shuffle is on and not connected to a computer, check the battery status without
interrupting playback by quickly turning iPod shuffle off and then on again. You can
also use VoiceOver to hear battery status information.

WARNING:

Make sure the power adapter is fully assembled before plugging it into a

power outlet. Read all safety instructions about using the Apple USB Power Adapter
on page 33 before use.
