POWER SOURCES  
Power this player by inserting 2 size “AA” fresh alkaline batteries.  
Using with Batteries  
BATTERY OPERATION  
1. Slide the OPEN button to open the CD DOOR, then  
open the BATTERY DOOR.  
2. Insert 2 size “AA” fresh alkaline batteries as shown.  
NOTE: Player will not work, and batteries will be  
drained, if not inserted as shown inside the  
Battery Compartment.  
3. Close the BATTERY DOOR.  
TIPS ON BATTERY USE  
Reversing polarities will damage the batteries and possibly your set. Be sure to  
follow polarity ( + and - ) as indicated.  
Do not mix different types together (Alkaline, Carbon-Zinc, Nickel-Cadmium etc.),  
or old batteries with new ones.  
When not in use for an extended period of time, or while internal batteries will not  
be used, remove them to prevent possible acid leakage or corrosion resulting in  
damage to your player.  
When the batteries have become discharged, they must be disposed of in a safe  
manner that complies with all applicable laws.  
Installation of batteries should only be done by an adult (for safety).  
ALKALINE BATTERY LIFE  
Bear in mind that battery life expectancy is based upon volume and bass listening  
levels.  
Maximum battery power consumption happens at maximum settings. Typical life  
for 2 size “AA” alkaline batteries is above 8 hours of continuous use for CD play.  
WHEN  
SHOWS IN THE DISPLAY  
If the alkaline batteries are weak and discharged, this symbol “  
” shows or  
flashes in the display, then the power automatically turns off. If this occurs, replace  
the alkaline batteries (also if the display does not show anything, the batteries are  
dead).  
NOTE: You may use rechargeable batteries on this set. However, because  
rechargeable batteries generally have lower voltage (1.2 volts instead of  
1.5 volts). Your playing time will be much less than normal fresh alkaline  
batteries.  
AC Adaptor (optional)  
You can also power this CD player by connecting an optional AC adaptor.  
Before you buy an AC Adaptor, please note, the only AC ADAPTOR suitable for this player  
is DC 4.5V 700mA (or greater mA), with plus center polarity  
. Others may damage  
the player. Please check voltage & current (mA) before buying an AC ADAPTOR.

ESP PLUSTM ANTI-SKIP SYSTEM  
This set is designed with the latest 60 second ESP PLUSTM (Electronic Skip Protection)  
for CD play and 120 second for MP3 - which allows virtually unlimited gentle skip  
protection above the normal shock protection.  
The ESP PLUSTM function prevents the sound from skipping by using a buffer memory  
that stores music data. This new ESP PLUSTM system can store more music than  
normal anti-skip systems.  
This new design allows gentle swaying of the set (as in walking) without music skipping.  
This function may not work during heavy jogging.  
The ESP PLUSTM function will turn on automatically when the  
PLAY/PAUSE button is pressed.  
When the PLAY/PAUSE button is pressed, the “  
” (memory  
basket) indicator will appear in the display, the digital data  
(music) is stored in the “read-ahead” memory buffer before  
it is decoded and played.  
EMPTY  
MEMORY  
The “  
” mark changes to the “  
” mark, indicating that the  
memory buffer (basket) is full.  
If the set is subject to a shock or a bump during play, the  
data stored in memory continues to be decoded and played.  
This gives the pickup time to stabilize and continue  
reading new music. As the data is used from memory, the  
indicator changes from “

and the display changes back to the “ ” mark.

MEMORY

If the set is subject to repeated shocks and all the data  
stored in memory is used up, the “ ” mark is displayed  
and the sound will skip or stop for a brief period until the  
memory basket has time to fill up again.  
ALL MEMORY  
USED UP  
NOTE:  
- The music may stop if the player receives continuous  
shocking or shaking.  
- You may hear noise or skipping if the DISC is dirty or  
scratched.  
- During ESP play, if you press SKIP/SEARCH button, or  
10+ / ALBUM button, the memory basket will empty itself  
temporarily in order to read ahead.  
NOTE: During CD play, the ESP PLUSTM function can be turned off or on if  
you press and hold the 10+ / ALBUM button for 2 or 3 seconds.

Basic Introduction to MP3  
MP3 files are music files which have been compressed into the MP3 format. The  
CD-965 plays MP3 files which have been written onto a CD disc.  
The first thing you will need is an IBM  
compatible PC computer (at least  
Pentium class) or an apple computer (at  
least G3 class) with lots of RAM and a  
CD-R or CD-RW writer. Then you will  
need some software. (Either it is in your  
new computer already or you may have  
to buy this from MusicMatch or a similar  
company. You may go to the Website  
Successful recording of a CD needs an  
uninterrupted stream of high speed data.  
For best results, limit or close your other  
programs on the computer while  
recording to prevent buffer underruns  
oYrouemcapntypslapyotsMPon3 tshoengdsisco.n most new  
computers or you can highlight them for  
downloading & “burning” (recording)  
them onto a CD later. Note your CD-965  
will play MP3 songs which end in the  
extension “.MP3” (dot MP3 only). You  
can select how to save a file, select .MP3  
as the correct extension on your  
computer. Do not save the file with other  
extensions like .txt)  
To play MP3 files on this player, you will  
need to make (record) a disc with your  
MP3 files on them.  
We recommend you get some books or  
information on the Web to help you learn  
this exciting new way to store & play  
hundreds of songs in MP3 format. Also  
you may search the web for “MP3” and  
you will immediately find a world of  
information and songs.  
If you want to convert your existing  
records or tapes to MP3 discs, you will  
need to record them using a sound card.  
You will also need software such as  
MusicMatch or RealJukebox and a set  
of audio cables to connect your tape  
player to your sound card.  
NOTE: Most audio CD players can’t play  
MP3 files, the CD-965 can play  
both MP3 and normal music files  
but not if they are mixed on one CD.  
NOTE: This set will not play WMA music files.  
If you want to record MP3 files from

in most cases above, you will need to  
enter the names of the songs. Also, if  
you put all songs in one album, it may  
be difficult for you to locate a particular  
song. We recommend several albums  
on a single CD with each album  
containing multiple songs. CDDB

General Information  
1.Usually, you must “write” your own MP3 disc on your computer’s CD writer. Or, you  
may buy pre-recorded MP3 discs from “on line” sources.  
2.When saving songs (audio files) onto your CD-R (or CD-RW), you must save them  
as “.MP3” (DOT MP3) files. Do not save them as .DOC, .TEXT or .PDF etc when  
downloading, converting or saving files as MP3 files.  
3.Do not save TEXT files as “.MP3” files because they will not play and they may  
interfere with the set.  
4.Do not attempt to combine normal CD audio tracks and MP3 tracks onto one CD  
because the set will only recognize the audio tracks and only play those.

set is not to be used for an extended period of time (3 days or more).  
When cleaning your set, use a soft dry cloth. Do not use solvents or commercially  
available cleaners, as they may damage or discolor the finish.  
Do not wear headphones while operating a motor vehicle. This could create a traffic  
hazard and is illegal in many areas. Do not use this set when bicycling or running.  
The headphones supplied with your set provide superb stereo listening while allowing  
you to hear some outside sounds when listening at normally low volume levels. Listening  
at extremely high volume levels minimizes the intrusion of outside noise/sounds. In the  
interest of safety, it is strongly advised against the use while engaging in activities  
where the exclusion of external sounds (whistles, horns, sirens, traffic, etc.) could be  
hazardous. Also loud volume can hurt your ears. Discontinue use or lower the volume.  
If you notice that the sound has become weak or distorted or if tracks do not change,  
this is an indication that your batteries are weak. Replace both batteries at the same  
time (see Using with Batteries).  
Your CD-965 is identified by a serial number located on the bottom of the set. Record  
this number in the space provided below.

This manual contains detailed information on its safety and use. Please read it carefully  
so that you may take full advantage of its many features, and ensure a safe reliable  
operation. Keep this manual for future reference.  
CONDENSATION  
If cold water is poured into a glass, water droplets form on the outside of the glass. This is  
called condensation. Condensation may occur on internal operating parts of the lens.  
Condensation occurs:  
When the set is brought from the cold outdoors into a warm room, or if it is in a cold  
room to a room which is heated, or in the summer, if the set is moved from an air-  
conditioned room or car to a hot or humid location.  
Should condensation occur, the set may not operate properly. Open the CD DOOR  
and wait for about 20 minutes (to allow the internal parts to adjust to the surrounding  
temperature) before using the set.
