Battery States

When iPod is not connected to a power source, a battery icon in the top-right corner of the iPod screen shows about how much charge is left.

Battery about halfway charged

If iPod is connected to a power source, the battery icon animates to show that the battery is charging.

Battery charging

If you connect iPod to a power source and the battery icon does not animate, the battery is fully charged.

Battery fully charged (if not animated)

You can disconnect and use iPod before it is fully charged.

Note: Rechargeable batteries have a limited number of charge cycles and may eventually need to be replaced. Battery life and number of charge cycles vary by use and settings. For more information, go to www.apple.com/batteries.
