Multi-Touch screen
The Multi-Touch screen displays a wealth of info, entertainment, and creativity, all at your 
fingertips. A few simple gestures—tap, drag, swipe, and pinch—are all you need to explore  
and use iPod touch apps.
Buttons
Most of the buttons you use with iPod touch are virtual ones on the touchscreen. A few physical 
buttons control basic functions, such as turning on iPod touch or adjusting the volume.
Sleep/Wake button
When you’re not using iPod touch, press the Sleep/Wake button to lock iPod touch. Locking 
iPod touch puts the display to sleep, saves the battery, and prevents anything from happening 
if you touch the screen. You can still listen to music and adjust the volume using the buttons 
on the side of iPod touch, and receive FaceTime calls, text messages, alarms, notifications, and 
other updates.
Sleep/Wake button
iPod touch locks automatically if you don’t touch the screen for a minute or so. To adjust the 
timing, go to Settings > General > Auto-Lock. 
Turn on iPod touch. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
Unlock iPod touch. Press the Sleep/Wake button or the Home button, then drag the slider.
Turn off iPod touch. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the slider appears, then drag 
the slider.
For additional security, you can require a passcode to unlock iPod touch. Go to 
Settings > Passcode. See Use a passcode with data protection on page 37 .

To limit the volume for music and videos, go to Settings > Music > Volume Limit.
Note:  In some European Union (EU) countries, iPod touch may warn that you’re setting the 
volume above the EU recommended level for hearing safety. To increase the volume beyond this 
level, you may need to briefly release the volume control. To limit the maximum headset volume 
to this level, go to Settings > Music > Volume Limit. T o prevent changes to the volume limit, go 
to Settings > General > Restrictions > Volume Limit. 
Use Control Center to adjust the volume. When iPod touch is locked or when you’re using 
another app, swipe up from the bottom edge of the screen to open Control Center.
Do Not Disturb, also available in Control Center, is an easy way to keep iPod touch silent. See Do 
Not Disturb
 on page 31 .
You can also use either volume button to take a picture or record a video. See  Take photos and 
videos
 on page 81 .
