Switch off iPod nano completely - how it works
If you don't want to use your iPod nano for a while, you can simply turn it off. We'll show you how it's done.
iPod nano: Turn off the music player
Note: For the following instructions, iPod nano must not be connected to power or another device:
- Press and hold the play / pause button for a few seconds until the display turns black.
- If you then lock the hold button at the top of the device, the device is switched to standby mode.
- Unfortunately, the iPod cannot be switched off completely. Here it only helps to let the battery run empty.
