Instructions for Battery Replacement - Apple iPod™ SHUFFLE
These instructions come with no warranty or guarantee. Improper assembly or use of excessive force
may result in damage to your iPod™. The buyer assumes full responsibility for damages or problems
caused by use of these instructions. Installing this battery requires a moderate level of technical ability
and proficiency in the use of hand tools as well as a general understanding of electronic components.
Step 1
The top and bottom of the shuffle have white plastic caps held on by mild adhesive. Heat the
caps with a hair dryer and gently pry them both up. Make sure you don't pry the metal beneath
the caps up at the same time.
Step 2
Remove the shuffle / loop switch and the power switch. The shuffle / loop switch is a metal arm
about .5" long that extends along the bottom to a switch on the logic board in the center of the
Shuffle. Beneath each cap is a metal retaining bracket. Remove all 4 screws.
Step 3
Lift out the metal retaining brackets on either side of the Shuffle.
Step 4
Push the logic board through the case and out of the Shuffle.
Step 5
Replace the battery, slide logic board back in iPod™ and replace screws and caps.
Your new battery will need a minimum of three hours charge time before its first use.
