The SUPERSIGNAL remote control is powered by a single 3V lithium
battery. Depending on usage, the battery should happily run for
between 1 and 2 years.
Replace the battery when button presses seem sluggish, or when the
operating range appears to have reduced signifi cantly.
Replace the old battery with a new CR2025 lithium cell.

POWER SUPPLY (PSU)
!"#$
Your SUPERSIGNAL radio is supplied with a multi-region power supply,
meaning that it can be operated in a number of countries around
the world.
Simply choose the correct adaptor for your country from the
selection supplied, then follow the instructions below.
SET-UP
Using the PSU supplied, connect one end to the DC power socket found on the
1
rear of your radio, then plug the opposite end into the mains socket on the wall.
SUPERSIGNAL will automatically perform a scan to see
2
what DAB stations are being broadcast in your area.
Therefore please fully extend the antenna before
switching on.

Press the POWER button once to get started.
CONTROLLING SUPERSIGNAL
In order for you to get the most from your radio, it is important for you
to understand how its joystick and menu system operates.
JOYSTICK CONTROL
Your radio uses a joystick based control system for ease of use.
The joystick controller has four functions (UP, DOWN, LEFT and RIGHT)
and is used in conjunction with a separate SELECT button.
MENU BUTTON
Pressing the button will take you to the Mode Menu for the
particular mode of operation you are in. For example, pressing
when in DAB Mode will take you to the DAB MODE MENU.
Pressing the button for a second time will return you to the
‘playing screen’ that you just left.
You can use the button at any time to reverse out of any menu
that you’re navigating through.
The following system settings can be accessed from any of the mode
menus :
• Sleep
• Equaliser
• Time
• Contrast
• Language
• Factory Reset
• Software Upgrade
• Software Version
See SYSTEM SETTINGS on Page 18 for further details
MODE BUTTON
Pressing the MODE button will sequentially cycle through each of
SUPERSIGNAL’s modes of operation.

DAB RADIO MODE
GETTING READY FOR DAB OPERATION
Please ensure that the radio’s antenna is extended before operation
in DAB Mode.
When you switch on SUPERSIGNAL for the fi rst time, it will automati-
cally perform a scan to see what stations are being braodcast in your
area, before storing them alphabetically in the radio’s memory.
To enter DAB MODE, press the button until the DAB MODE intro
screen is displayed.
It may be necessary to perform a FULL SCAN from time to time,
in order to update your radio’s station list. This may be required for
any one of the following reasons:
1. Station availability can change from time to time as new stations
appear, or existing stations cease broadcasting.
2. Reception was poor during the initial automatic scan, if for
example the radio’s antenna was not completely extended,
it may be that the station list is incomplete or even empty.
3. You have poor reception on some of the stations (resulting in
broken or poor quality audio), you may wish to list only stations that
have a strong signal strength.
To start a manual scan, press the button then select FULL SCAN
from the menu list.
When the scan is complete, your radio will list all available stations.
To remove stations that are listed but unavailable, press then
choose PRUNE. When asked whether you wish to “PRUNE?”, select
YES.

radio’s screen.

BLUETOOTH MODE
Wirelessly stream music from your Bluetooth smartphone, tablet, laptop or other
Bluetooth enabled device directly to SUPERSIGNAL, without the need for physical
docking or connection.
PAIRING WITH BLUETOOTH DEVICES
‘Pairing’ occurs when two Bluetooth devices talk to each other and establish a
connection. This connection is stored in the memory of both devices, meaning
that once you ‘pair’ a particular device with SUPERSIGNAL, you shouldn’t have to
go through the pairing process again.
HOW TO PAIR A BLUETOOTH DEVICE WITH SUPERSIGNAL
14:12
Bluetooth Mode
To enter Bluetooth mode, press the button until the Bluetooth mode intro
screen is displayed. SUPERSIGNAL will now enter pairing mode, and will state
‘Discoverable...’ on screen.
On your Bluetooth device, ensure that Bluetooth is enabled then initiate a ‘Search’
for a new device. When the search process has been completed, your device will
list all the available Bluetooth devices in your close proximity.
Select SUPERSIGNAL from the list.
Your Bluetooth device will confi rm when pairing has been completed, and
SUPERSIGNAL will now display “Device Connected” on screen.
PASSKEY
During the pairing process some Bluetooth devices may prompt you to enter a
Passkey. Should your device require a Passkey, enter 0000.
Should you experience problems when pairing your device with SUPERSIGNAL,
please see the Bluetooth Troubleshooting section on page 21.

BLUETOOTH MODE
STREAMING MUSIC
Selecting and controlling music playback can be done in one of two ways: either
directly from the source device (smartphone, tablet or laptop etc.), or by using
the buttons on SUPERSIGNAL’s remote control.
Please note, the playback volume level can be independently controlled from
either SUPERSIGNAL or the source device.
MANAGEMENT OF MULTIPLE BLUETOOTH DEVICES
If you have paired only one Bluetooth device, on entering Bluetooth mode
SUPERSIGNAL will automatically seek to connect with this device.
Should you wish to pair another device, press then select ‘Disconnect’.
SUPERSIGNAL will now disconnect its current Bluetooth device and enter pairing
mode again. This will allow you to repeat the ‘Pairing with Bluetooth Devices’
procedure.
SUPERSIGNAL will remember up to 8 individual Bluetooth devices. When you
reach the point of having a 9th device you wish to pair, SUPERSIGNAL will pair with
the 9th device and automatically erase the oldest-paired device from its memory.
You can continue to pair new devices and your radio will always remember the
previous 8 devices it has paired with.
14:12
Bluetooth
<Disconnect >
aptX®
SUPERSIGNAL’s Bluetooth solution is equipped with CSR’s patented aptX®
technology, meaning that when it is used in conjunction with a device that also
supports aptX®, the streamed audio will be of CD quality rather than the MP3
quality of a standard Bluetooth stream.
