Does the ipod automatically go off when you turn the car off?

Does the 1 turn off the ipod when you turn the car off to preserve the battery of the ipod? I couldn't tell as it just has that checkmark on the ipod, so couldn't tell.

Thanks!

Yes, the iPod will pause when the source is switched or vehicle is turned off.

I wouldn't worry about battery life, I've been using a 4th Generation monochrome iPod since the beginning (my favorite) with no ill effects on the battery using it every day in the car, office and in the gym.
