Newer iPod models, like iPod nano or Fifth Generation iPod, support additional features when connected through the dock.

Does the iPod Hi-Fi charge the iPod while running from batteries?
If you are using the iPod Hi-Fi with batteries (and not plugged into an electrical outlet) and you connect an iPod with a dock connector, the batteries in your iPod Hi-Fi provide a minimum charge to iPod. If the iPod is on, it charges for 30 minutes. If the iPod is asleep, it charges for 15 minutes. If you disconnect the iPod and reattach it, the charge cycle starts again. The best way to charge an iPod connected to the dock connector port is by connecting the iPod Hi-Fi to AC power.

How can I get the most out of the battery life for my iPod Hi-Fi?
When not in use, your iPod Hi-Fi enters a low-power standby mode to save battery life. However, if you don’t plan to use your iPod Hi-Fi for an extended period, you may wish to remove the batteries to extend battery life even longer. See "Tips and Tricks to get the most out of your iPod Hi-Fi's batteries" for more information.
Note: If you don’t want the batteries in your iPod Hi-Fi to expend power when iPod isn’t playing, remove iPod from your iPod Hi-Fi. If your iPod Hi-Fi is plugged into an electrical outlet, the iPod battery charges until it is fully charged.
Discharged batteries should be removed as soon as possible to avoid damage to iPod Hi-Fi from battery leakage.
