Quick Start

Four Steps to Playing Music on iPod mini

To set up iPod mini, you install software from the iPod CD, and import songs from your

music CD collection or purchase songs from the iTunes Music Store (available in some

countries only). Then you transfer the songs to iPod mini as the battery charges, then

start listening to music.

Step 1: Install the Software

Insert the iPod CD into your computer and install iTunes and the iPod mini software.

Step 2: Import Music to Your Computer

Complete this step if you haven’t already transferred music to your computer. You can

import music from your audio CDs, or if you have an Internet connection, you can buy

music online and download it to your computer using the iTunes Music Store. You can

browse over a million songs and listen to a 30-second preview of any song. The iTunes

Music Store is available in some countries only.

To import music to your computer from an audio CD:

Insert a CD into your computer. iTunes opens automatically and the CD is selected in

the iTunes Source list.

Uncheck songs you don’t want to transfer, then click Import.

Repeat for any other CDs with songs you’d like to import.

To buy music online:

Open iTunes and click Music Store in the Source list.

Click the Account button and follow the onscreen instructions to set up an account or

enter your existing Apple Account or America Online (AOL) account information (this

option is available in some countries only).

Quick Start

Step 3: Connect iPod mini to Charge the Battery and Transfer Music

Connect iPod mini to a high-power USB 2.0 port on your computer using the included

iPod Dock Connector to USB 2.0 Cable.

When you connect iPod mini to your computer, iTunes opens. Follow the simple

onscreen instructions to transfer songs and playlists to iPod mini.

To charge the battery:

When iPod mini is connected to your computer, the battery charges. Before

disconnecting iPod mini the first time, let the battery charge for at least an hour.

If you are connecting to a high-power USB 2.0 port,

use the iPod Dock Connector to USB 2.0 Cable. If you

are connecting to a FireWire 400 port, use an iPod Dock

Connector to FireWire Cable (available separately).

Quick Start

Important:

Be sure to connect iPod mini to a high-power USB 2.0 port directly on your

computer, or to a powered USB 2.0 hub that’s connected to your computer. iPod mini

won’t work if it’s connected to a low-power USB 2.0 port, such as those sometimes

found on keyboards or other peripherals.

If the battery icon in the upper-right corner of the iPod mini screen shows a lightning

bolt, iPod mini is connected to a high-power USB 2.0 port and the battery is charging

(see page 42 for more information).

If you’re using a portable or laptop computer with a high-power USB 2.0 port,

connect the

computer to a power outlet before connecting iPod mini for best results.

If your computer doesn’t have a high-power USB 2.0 port, but has a 6-pin FireWire 400 (IEEE

1394) port,

you can connect iPod mini using the optional iPod Dock Connector to

FireWire Cable, available at www.ipod.com/store.

If your Windows PC doesn’t have a high-power USB 2.0 port or a 6-pin FireWire 400 (IEEE

1394) port,

you can purchase and install a USB 2.0 card or a FireWire card.

For more information on cables and compatible USB and FireWire cards, go to

www.apple.com/ipod.

Safety and Cleaning 59

Avoid Hearing Damage

Do Not Use While Driving

Important: Use of headphones while operating a vehicle is not recommended and is

illegal in some areas. Be careful and attentive while driving. Stop listening to your

iPod mini if you find it disruptive or distracting while operating any type of vehicle or

performing any other activity that requires your full attention.

Connectors and Ports

Never force a connector into a port. If the connector and port do not join with

reasonable ease, they probably don’t match. Make sure that the connector matches the

port and that you have positioned the connector correctly in relation to the port.

About Operating and Storage Temperatures

•Operate your iPod mini in a place where the temperature is always between 0º and

35º C (32º to 95º F).

Warning Electrical equipment may be hazardous if misused. Operation of this

product, or similar products, must always be supervised by an adult. Do not allow

children access to the interior of any electrical product and do not permit them to

handle any cables.

Warning Permanent hearing loss may occur if earbuds or headphones are used at

high volume. You can adapt over time to a higher volume of sound, which may sound

normal but can be damaging to your hearing. Set your iPod mini volume to a safe

level before that happens. If you experience ringing in your ears, reduce the volume

or discontinue use of your iPod mini.

60 Safety and Cleaning

•Store your iPod mini in a place where the temperature is always between –20º and

45º C (–4º to 113º F). Don’t leave iPod mini in your car, since temperatures in parked

cars can exceed this range.

•iPod mini play time may temporarily shorten in low-temperature conditions.

•When you’re using your iPod mini or charging the battery, it is normal for the bottom

of the case to get warm. The bottom of the iPod mini case functions as a cooling

surface that transfers heat from inside the unit to the cooler air outside.

Avoid Wet Locations

•Keep your iPod mini away from sources of liquids, such as drinks, washbasins,

bathtubs, shower stalls, and so on.

•Protect your iPod mini from direct sunlight and rain or other moisture.

•Take care not to spill any food or liquid on iPod mini. If you do, unplug iPod mini
