device. Also during the reading process, the Shuffle and Browse functions will be
disabled. This process is needed to ensure the full use of your iPod®features and
only happens the first time it is connected. After the first time, the reading process
of your iPod®will take considerably less time unless changes are made or new
songs are added to the playlist.
•The USB port supports certain Mini, Classic, Nano, Touch, and iPhone®devices. The
