Caring for the Cassette Player
The cassette player picks up dirt and oxides from the tape. This contami-
nation builds up over time and
causes the sound quality to degrade.
To prevent this, you should clean the player after every 30 hours of use.
Your dealer has a cleaning kit
available.

If you do not clean the cassette
player regularly, it may eventually
become impossible to remove thecontamination with a normal

cleaning kit.

Use 100-minute or shorter cassettes.
Cassettes longer than that use
thinner tape that may break or jam the drive. Look at the cassette before you
insert it. If the tape is loose, tighten
it by turning a hub with a pencil or
your finger. If the label is peeling off, remove it
from the cassette or it could cause
the cassette to jam in the player.Never try to insert a warped ordamaged cassette in the player.
When they are not in use, store cassettes in their cases to protect
them from dust and moisture. Never place cassettes where they will beexposed to direct sunlight, high heat,
or high humidity. If a cassette isexposed to extreme heat or cold, let
it reach a moderate temperature
before inserting it in the player.
Never try to insert foreign objects
into the cassette player. If you see the error indication
on the display, press the

EJECT button to remove the

cassette from the unit. Make sure

the tape is not damaged. If the
cassette will not eject or the error
indication stays on after the cassette

ejects, take the car to your Honda

dealer.

Theft Protection
On EX, EX-V6 models

Your car's audio system will disable itself if it is disconnected from
electrical power for any reason. Tomake it work again, the user must
enter a specific five-digit code in the
Preset buttons. Because there are
hundreds of number combinations possible from five digits, making thesystem work without knowing the
exact code is nearly impossible.
You should have received a card that lists your audio system's codenumber and serial number. It is best
to store this card in a safe place at
home. In addition, you should writethe audio system's serial number in
this Owner's Manual. If you should
happen to lose the card, you mustobtain the code number from your
Honda dealer. To do this, you will
need the system's serial number. If your car's battery is disconnected
or goes dead, or the radio fuse is
removed, the audio system willdisable itself. If this happens, you
will see "Code" in the frequency display the next time you turn on the
system. Use the Preset buttons to
enter the five-digit code. If it is
entered correctly, the radio will start
playing.
If you make a mistake entering the
code, do not start over or try tocorrect your mistake. Complete the
five-digit sequence, then enter the correct code. You have ten tries toenter the correct code. If you are
unsuccessful in ten attempts, you must then leave the system on forone hour before trying again. You will have to store your favorite
stations in the Preset buttons after
the system begins working. Your original settings were lost when
power was disconnected.
