Frequently Asked Questions - TUNEPOWER POUR IPOD #F8Z088EA BELKIN

How do I install the TunePower on my iPod video?

Choose the sleeve suitable for your iPod (30GB or 60GB). Insert the TunePower's dock connector into the bottom of the sleeve, then attach the battery pack by snapping the tabs. Slide the iPod into the sleeve from bottom to top, then plug the dock connector into the iPod's port.

How do I check the battery charge level?

Briefly press the button on the top of the TunePower. The indicator color tells you: green = full charge, amber = partial charge, red = less than 20 minutes remaining.

What is the battery life of the TunePower?

It provides up to 10 hours of additional audio playback and up to 6 hours of additional video playback, depending on the Apple firmware version.

How do I recharge the TunePower?

Plug the supplied cable into the DC jack on the top of the TunePower, then into a mains charger. The light turns on during charging and turns off when the battery reaches about 90%. Leave it plugged in for an additional 10 minutes for a maximum charge.

Can I use the iPod while it is connected to the TunePower?

Yes, the iPod then runs on the TunePower's battery, preserving its internal battery. You can also charge both simultaneously.

What does a flashing indicator during charging mean?

A flashing light indicates an error. Unplug the TunePower from the cable, wait 30 seconds, then reconnect. The charging process should resume normally.

How should I store the TunePower when not in use?

For storage longer than one month, discharge the battery until the indicator turns red, then store it in a cool, dry place (between -20 and 40°C). Recharge it for 10 to 15 minutes every 6 months to preserve its capacity.

Is the TunePower compatible with all iPods?

No, it is specifically designed for the iPod video (30GB and 60GB models). Two different sized sleeves are provided to fit these two capacities.

What is the battery life of the TunePower?

The lithium-ion battery has a lifespan of 400 to 500 charge/discharge cycles. Extreme temperatures can reduce this lifespan.

Is the product warranted?

Yes, Belkin offers a limited 3-year warranty against defects in design, materials, and workmanship. To make a claim, contact Belkin customer service within 15 days of the issue.

Charging the Belkin TunePower

For additional power and charging, connect the DC plug end of the included AC wall charger into the DC jack on the top of the TunePower. Connect the AC wall charger into any US wall outlet.

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

Charging the Belkin TunePower

Approximate charging times are as follows:

TunePower (whether connected to iPod video or not): 2 hours Full-charge time: 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 video whenever it is connected. When not in use, it is helpful to disconnect the Belkin TunePower from the iPod video (recommended), or make sure that the iPod video is in the OFF and LOCKED position to conserve power.

The iPod video 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 video.

The Belkin TunePower charging cable must limit its power consumption at times. In some instances, the iPod video will have a higher charge current. At those times, the charger will limit the amount of current going into the TunePower batteries, while delivering full charge power to the iPod video. This increases the total charge time of the TunePower to up to five hours.

Charging the Belkin TunePower

Helpful Hints

As with all rechargeable lithium-ion batteries, the TunePower will slowly discharge over time, even when not connected to the iPod video. 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.

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.
