    Safety, Handling, & Support
    Important safety information
    WARNING:  Failure to follow these safety instructions could result in fire, electric shock, or other 
    injuries, or damage to iPod
     touch or other proper
     ty. Read all the safety information below 
    before using iPod
     touch.
    Handling  Handle iPod touch with care. It is made of metal, glass, and plastic and has sensitive 
    electronic components inside. iPod touch can be damaged if dropped, burned, punctured, or 
    crushed, or if it comes in contact with liquid. Don’t use a damaged iPod touch, such as one with 
    a cracked screen, as it may cause injury. If you’re concerned about scratching the surface of 
    iPod touch, consider using a case or cover.
    Repairing  Don’t open iPod touch and don’t attempt to repair iPod touch by yourself. 
    Disassembling iPod touch may damage it or may cause injury to you. If iPod touch is 
    damaged, malfunctions, or comes in contact with liquid, contact Apple or an Apple 
    Authorized Service Provider. You can find more information about getting service at 
    www.apple.com/support/ipod/service/faq .
    Battery  Don’t attempt to replace the iPod touch battery yourself—you may damage the 
    battery, which could cause overheating and injury. The lithium-ion battery in iPod touch should 
    be replaced only by Apple or an Apple Authorized Service Provider, and must be recycled or 
    disposed of separately from household waste. Don’t incinerate the battery. For information about 
    battery recycling and replacement, see www.apple.com/batteries .
    Distraction  Using iPod touch in some circumstances may distract you and might cause a 
    dangerous situation. Observe rules that prohibit or restrict the use of mobile devices or headphones 
    (for example, avoid texting while driving a car or using headphones while riding a bicycle).
    Navigation  Maps, directions, Flyover, and location based apps depend on data services.
    Charging  Charge iPod touch with the included cable connected to a computer or to an Apple 
    USB power adapter (available separately), or with other third-party “Made for iPod” cables and 
    power adapters that are compatible with USB 2.0 or later. Using damaged cables or chargers, or 
    charging when moisture is present, can cause electric shock. When you use the Apple USB Power 
    Adapter to charge iPod touch, make sure that the AC plug or AC power cord is fully inserted into 
    the adapter before you plug it into a power outlet.
    Lightning cable and connector  Avoid prolonged skin contact with the connector when the 
    Lightning cable is plugged into a power source because it may cause discomfort or injury. 
    Situations such as sleeping or sitting on the Lightning connector should be avoided.
    Appendix 
    						
    							 Appendix C    Safety, Handling, & Support 13 4
    Prolonged heat exposure  iPod touch and its power adapter (available separately) comply 
    with applicable surface temperature standards and limits. However, even within these limits, 
    sustained contact with warm surfaces for long periods of time may cause discomfort or injury. 
    Use common sense to avoid situations where your skin is in contact with a device or its power 
    adapter when it’s operating or plugged into a power source for long periods of time. For 
    example, don’t sleep or place a device or power adapter under a blanket, pillow, or your body 
    when it’s plugged into a power source. It’s important to keep iPod touch and its power adapter 
    in a well-ventilated area when using or charging them. Take special care if you have a physical 
    condition that affects your ability to detect heat against the body.
    Hearing loss  Listening to sound at high volumes may damage your hearing. Background noise, 
    as well as continued exposure to high volume levels, can make sounds seem quieter than they 
    actually are. Use only compatible receivers, earbuds, headphones, speakerphones, or earpieces 
    with your device. Turn on the audio and check the volume before inserting anything in your ear. 
    For more information about hearing loss, see www.apple.com/sound . For information about how 
    to set a maximum volume limit on iPod touch, see Music settings on page 57.
    WARNING:  To pre vent possible hearing damage, do not listen at high volume levels for 
    long periods.
    Apple headsets  The headsets sold with iPhone 4s or later in China (identifiable by dark 
    insulating rings on the plug) are designed to comply with Chinese standards and are compatible 
    with iPhone 4s or later, iPad 2 or later, and iPod touch 5th generation. Use only compatible 
    headsets with your device.
    Radio signals  iPod touch uses radio signals to connect to wireless networks. For information 
    about the amount of power used to transmit these signals, and about steps you can take to 
    minimize exposure, see Settings > General > About > Legal > RF Exposure.
    Radio frequency interference  Observe signs and notices that prohibit or restrict the use of 
    electronic devices (for example, in healthcare facilities or blasting areas). Although iPod touch 
    is designed, tested, and manufactured to comply with regulations governing radio frequency 
    emissions, such emissions from iPod touch can negatively affect the operation of other electronic 
    equipment, causing them to malfunction. Turn off iPod touch or use Airplane Mode to turn off 
    the iPod touch wireless transmitters when use is prohibited, such as while traveling in aircraft, or 
    when asked to do so by authorities.
    Medical devices  iPod touch contains radios that emit electromagnetic fields, and contains 
    magnets near the bottom. The included headphones also have magnets in the earbuds. These 
    electromagnetic fields and magnets may interfere with pacemakers, defibrillators, or other 
    medical devices. Maintain at least 6 inches (approximately 15 cm) of separation between your 
    pacemaker or defibrillator and iPod touch or the earbuds. If you suspect iPod touch is interfering 
    with your pacemaker or any other medical device, stop using iPod touch and consult your 
    physician for information specific to your medical device.
    Medical conditions  If you have any other medical condition that you believe could be affected 
    by iPod touch (for example, seizures, blackouts, eyestrain, or headaches), consult with your 
    physician prior to using iPod touch. 
    Explosive atmospheres  Do not charge or use iPod touch in any area with a potentially explosive 
    atmosphere, such as a fueling area, or in areas where the air contains chemicals or particles (such 
    as grain, dust, or metal powders). Obey all signs and instructions. 
    						
    							 Appendix C    Safety, Handling, & Support 13 5
    Repetitive motion  When you perform repetitive activities such as typing or playing games on 
    iPod touch, you may experience occasional discomfort in your hands, arms, wrists, shoulders, 
    neck, or other parts of your body. If you experience discomfort, stop using iPod touch and 
    consult a physician.
    High-consequence activities  This device is not intended for use where the failure of the device 
    could lead to death, personal injury, or severe environmental damage.
    iPod touch loop (available on some models)  To attach the loop securely, press the button 
    on the back of iPod touch to pop it up, slip the loop tab over the button, then pull the loop 
    to snap it into place. Certain activities when using the iPod touch loop may pose a risk of 
    injury, especially if the loop becomes caught or trapped—for example, while working around 
    machinery. Don’t swing iPod touch while using the loop, as the loop might come off, causing 
    injury or damage.
    Choking hazard  Some iPod touch accessories may present a choking hazard to small children. 
    Keep these accessories away from small children.
    Important handling information
    Cleaning  Clean iPod touch immediately if it comes in contact with anything that may cause 
    stains—such as dirt, ink, makeup, or lotions. To clean:
     •Disconnect all cables and turn iPod touch off (press and hold the Sleep/Wake button, then 
    slide the onscreen slider).
     •Use a soft, lint-free cloth.
     •Avoid getting moisture in openings.
     •Don’t use cleaning products or compressed air.
    The front of iPod touch is made of glass with a fingerprint-resistant oleophobic (oil repellant) 
    coating. This coating wears over time with normal usage. Cleaning products and abrasive 
    materials will further diminish the coating, and may scratch the glass.
    Using connectors, ports, and buttons  Never force a connector into a port or apply excessive 
    pressure to a button, because this may cause damage that is not covered under the warranty. If 
    the connector and port don’t join with reasonable ease, they probably don’t match. Check for 
    obstructions and make sure that the connector matches the port and that you have positioned 
    the connector correctly in relation to the port.
    Lightning cable  Discoloration of the Lightning plug after regular use is normal. Dirt, debris, and 
    exposure to liquids may cause discoloration. To remove the discoloration or if the cable becomes 
    warm during use or won’t charge or sync your iPod touch, disconnect the Lightning cable from 
    your computer or power adapter and clean it with a soft, dry, lint-free cloth. Do not use liquids or 
    cleaning products when cleaning the Lightning connector.
    Operating temperature  iPod touch is designed to work in ambient temperatures between 
    32° and 95° F (0° and 35° C) and stored in temperatures between -4° and 113° F (-20° and 45° C). 
    iPod touch can be damaged and battery life shortened if stored or operated outside of these 
    temperature ranges. Avoid exposing iPod touch to dramatic changes in temperature or humidity. 
    When you’re using iPod touch or charging the battery, it is normal for iPod touch to get warm. 
    						
    							 Appendix C    Safety, Handling, & Support 13 6
    If the interior temperature of iPod touch exceeds normal operating temperatures (for example, in 
    a hot car or in direct sunlight for extended periods of time), you may experience the following as 
    it attempts to regulate its temperature:
     •iPod touch stops charging.
     •The screen dims.
     •A temperature warning screen appears.
     •Some apps may close.
    Important:  You may not be able to use iPod touch while the temperature warning screen is 
    displayed. If iPod touch can’t regulate its internal temperature, it goes into deep sleep mode 
    until it cools. Move iPod touch to a cooler location out of direct sunlight and wait a few minutes 
    before trying to use iPod touch again.
    For more information, see support.apple.com/kb/HT2101.

    Configuration profiles define settings for using iPod touch with corporate or school networks or 
    accounts. You might be asked to install a configuration profile that was sent to you in an email, 
    or one that is downloaded from a web page. iPod touch asks for your permission to install the 
    profile, and displays information about what it contains, when you open the file. You can see 
    the profiles you have installed in Settings > General > Profiles. If you delete a profile, all of the 
    settings, apps, and data associated with the profile are also deleted.
    Back up iPod touch
    You can use iCloud or iTunes to automatically back up iPod touch. If you choose to back up using 
    iCloud, you can’t also use iTunes to automatically back up to your computer, but you can use 
    iTunes to manually back up to your computer. iCloud backs up iPod touch daily over Wi-Fi, when
