• Text stored within audio and video les
stored on your iPod (not all iPod models
support this feature).
• An automatic dimmer function reduces display
brightness in dark rooms while maintaining good
legibility in bright light.
• The i755 has a built-in energy storage device that
maintains the current time accurately without AC
power for up to ve minutes.

(like portable digital music and cassette players) or

variety of adjustments (Bass and Treble, Snooze time
and Text display modes, among others).
