Listening to Audiobooks

If the audiobook you’re listening to has chapters, you can press the Next/Fast-forward or Previous/Rewind button to skip to the next chapter or the beginning of the current chapter.

You can play audiobooks at speeds faster or slower than normal.

To set audiobook play speed:

mChoose Settings > Playback > Audiobooks and choose a speed, or press and hold the Center button from the Now Playing window.

Setting the play speed affects only audiobooks purchased from the iTunes Store or audible.com.

When you’re using iPod Radio Remote, you see a Radio menu item on the iPod nano main menu. For more information, see the iPod Radio Remote documentation.
