• If your iPod mini is exceptionally low on power and you connect it to a USB 2.0 port, 
it may charge for up to 30 minutes before you can use it. Leave iPod mini connected 
at least until the battery icon animates.
• If you’re connecting iPod mini to a portable or laptop computer using the iPod Dock 
Connector to USB 2.0 Cable, connect the computer to a power outlet before 
connecting iPod mini.
