Setup

1. Unboxing and Initial Charge

Upon unboxing, ensure all components are present: the M65 RGB Ultra Wireless mouse, USB-C to USB-A cable, SLIPSTREAM WIRELESS USB receiver, and adjustable weights. It is recommended to fully charge the mouse before first use. Connect the mouse to a USB port on your computer using the provided USB-C cable.

2. Connecting Your Mouse

The M65 RGB Ultra Wireless offers two primary connection methods:

• SLIPSTREAM WIRELESS (2.4GHz): For the fastest, sub-1ms wireless transmission speeds, plug the included USB receiver into an available USB-A port on your computer. The mouse will automatically connect.
• Bluetooth: For wider compatibility with various systems and devices, switch the mouse to Bluetooth mode. Pair it through your device's Bluetooth settings.

3. Installing iCUE Software

To unlock the full potential of your M65 RGB Ultra Wireless mouse, including custom DPI settings, button remapping, macros, and RGB lighting synchronization, download and install the Corsair iCUE software from the official Corsair website (www.corsair.com/icue).

4. Weight Tuning

The M65 RGB Ultra Wireless features a tunable weight system, allowing you to adjust its center of gravity and overall weight from 110g to 128g. This customization helps you find the perfect balance for your grip and play style. The mouse comes with up to six included weights that can be added or removed from the underside of the mouse.

Operating Instructions

1. Button Functions

The M65 RGB Ultra Wireless features 8 fully programmable buttons. By default, these buttons perform standard mouse functions, but can be customized via iCUE software:

• Left Click: Primary action.
• Right Click: Secondary action/context menu.
• Middle Click/Scroll Wheel: Scroll up/down, click for middle button function.
• DPI Up/Down Buttons: Adjust DPI sensitivity on-the-fly.
• Forward/Back Buttons: Navigate web pages or folders.
• Sniper Button: Reduces DPI to a very low setting for precise aiming in games (default).

2. DPI Adjustment and MARKSMAN Sensor

The mouse is equipped with a CORSAIR MARKSMAN optical sensor, offering an astonishing native 26,000 DPI. You can adjust the DPI in single-DPI steps using the dedicated DPI buttons or through the iCUE software. The sensor also provides 650 inches per second (IPS) tracking at up to 50G acceleration for precise movement capture.

3. Sensor Fusion Control and Tilt Gestures

The integrated six-axis gyro enables ultra-low lift-off distance, ensuring accurate tracking even when repositioning the mouse. This technology also allows for programmable tilt gestures, where you can map common in-game actions (like weapon reload) to simple mouse movements, providing an intuitive control method.

4. Battery Life

The M65 RGB Ultra Wireless offers up to 120 hours of battery life on a single charge, allowing for extended gaming sessions without interruption. Battery status can be monitored via the iCUE software.

Maintenance

1. Cleaning Your Mouse

To maintain optimal performance and hygiene, regularly clean your mouse. Use a soft, dry, lint-free cloth to wipe down the surface. For stubborn dirt, slightly dampen the cloth with water or a mild, non-abrasive cleaner. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.

2. Glide Pad Replacement

The M65 RGB Ultra Wireless features 100% PTFE replaceable glide pads on its underside. If you notice increased friction or wear, replacement glide pads can be purchased from authorized Corsair retailers. Ensure the mouse is powered off before attempting to replace the pads.

Troubleshooting

1. Connectivity Issues

• SLIPSTREAM WIRELESS: Ensure the USB receiver is securely plugged into a working USB port. Try a different USB port. Verify the mouse is switched to SLIPSTREAM mode.
• Bluetooth: Ensure Bluetooth is enabled on your device and the mouse is in pairing mode. Remove the mouse from your device's paired devices list and attempt to re-pair.
• General: Ensure the mouse is charged. Try connecting the mouse directly via the USB-C cable to confirm functionality.

2. Tracking Problems

• Clean the optical sensor on the underside of the mouse with a soft, dry cloth.
• Ensure you are using the mouse on a suitable surface (e.g., a mouse pad). Highly reflective or uneven surfaces can affect tracking.
• Perform surface calibration using the iCUE software.

3. iCUE Software Not Detecting Mouse

• Ensure iCUE is updated to the latest version.
• Restart your computer and the iCUE software.
• Try reinstalling the iCUE software.
