Operating the Belkin TunePower

Time periods listed are for the 3G iPod. Other iPod models
may have slight time variances.

Green: The battery is fully charged.

Amber: The battery is partially charged.

Red: Less than 20 minutes remain.

Note: iPod mini and 4G iPod players will recharge their internal
battery from the TunePower device*, though the charging icon
will not be displayed on the iPod screen. After three to four
hours, the TunePower will be completely discharged and can
be removed from the iPod (while the internal iPod battery is
approximately 75% charged). TunePower provides 8–10 hours
of additional play time.

*Performance may vary based on Apple iPod firmware version
in use. Visit belkin.com for details.

Operating the Belkin TunePower

Once the Belkin TunePower is connected to the iPod, the
iPod will run off the battery pack instead of the internal
iPod battery (as long as there is enough power in the
battery pack).

The TunePower will provide 8–10 hours of additional
play time*

*Performance may vary based on Apple® iPod firmware
version in use. Visit belkin.com for details.

To check the remaining
battery power level, press
the button on the top
end of the TunePower
and let go. The button

Charging the Belkin TunePower

Approximate charging times are as follows:

TunePower (whether connected to iPod or not): 2 hours

iPod fast-charge time (while connected to the TunePower):
2 hours for iPod and 1 hour for iPod mini (charges up to 80%
of battery capacity)

Full-charge time (for iPod and iPod mini): 4 hours

If the LED charge indicator flashes at any time during
charging, a FAULT has occurred. Simply disconnect the
Belkin TunePower from the supplied cable for approximately
30 seconds, and reconnect the cable. Charging should begin
automatically.

Notes: The Belkin TunePower will supply power to the iPod
whenever it is connected. When not in use, it is helpful to
disconnect the Belkin TunePower from the iPod, or make sure
that the iPod is in the OFF and LOCKED position to conserve
power.

The iPod can be charged at the same time as the Belkin
TunePower. Doing so should not increase the length of time that
it takes to charge the iPod.

Charging the Belkin TunePower

For additional power and charging,
connect the DC plug end of the
included cable into the DC jack on
the top of the TunePower.
Connect the FireWire® end into
the AC wall charger that ships
with your iPod, or to any FireWire
port on a laptop or desktop
computer.

The LED charge indicator will illuminate when the Belkin
TunePower is charging. This indicator will turn off when
the battery has been charged to approximately 90%. To
maximize charge, leave the battery pack connected for 10
minutes after the indicator turns off. Disconnecting the
Belkin TunePower before this time, or leaving it connected
for longer periods, will not damage the TunePower.

While the iPod is connected to the TunePower, both the
iPod and the TunePower can be charged simultaneously.
After the TunePower is completely charged, the charging
cycle will continue to charge the iPod.

Helpful Hints

The Belkin Battery Pack has a life cycle of 400–500 cycles.
Temperature can reduce the life cycle of this product. Belkin
recommends 0–30 degrees Celsius for charging and 0–50
degrees Celsius for discharge (storage above 40 degrees
Celsius can reduce life cycle).

The Belkin TunePower does not have to be completely
discharged (LED red or off) before charging. The Belkin
TunePower can be charged at any charge level. This will not
reduce the life cycle of the TunePower.

Helpful Hints

As with all rechargeable lithium-ion batteries, the TunePower
will slowly discharge over time, even when not connected
to the iPod. High temperatures will increase the rate that the
Belkin TunePower will self-discharge.

When storing the Belkin TunePower for more than one
month, Belkin recommends:

1. The TunePower should be discharged—the LED indicator

should be red. If stored in any other state (including no
LED), the Belkin TunePower may lose some of its capacity,
which may or may not be recoverable in the future.
The Belkin TunePower should NEVER be stored for long
periods of time when fully charged.

2. Store the TunePower in a cool dry location. The best

temperature range for storage is -20–40 degrees Celsius.

3. It is recommended that the TunePower be charged for 10–

15 minutes every six months (being stored) to decrease
the risk of lost capacity.

Helpful Hints

The Belkin Battery Pack has a life cycle of 400–500 cycles.
Temperature can reduce the life cycle of this product. Belkin
recommends 0–30 degrees Celsius for charging and 0–50
degrees Celsius for discharge (storage above 40 degrees
Celsius can reduce life cycle).

The Belkin TunePower does not have to be completely
discharged (LED red or off) before charging. The Belkin
TunePower can be charged at any charge level. This will not
reduce the life cycle of the TunePower.
