Audio System

Operating the CD Player
(Optional)
A Compact Disc changer is available for your car. It holds up to six discs,
providing several hours of continu-ous programming. You operate the
CD changer with the same controls
used for the radio and cassette
player.
Load the desired CD's in the
magazine and load the magazine in
the changer according to the
instructions that came with the unit.
Your dealer has Genuine Honda accessory in-dash CD players
available that are operated by the
radio controls. If you have one of
these units, use the directions in this section (except for multi-disc
selection) to operate it. To operate the CD changer, the
ignition key must be in ACCESSORY (I) or ON (II). If you are listening to
a cassette tape, eject it before
playing a CD.
Press the CD button until "CD" appears on the display. Once in the
CD mode, the system will start to
play the first track of the first disc in the magazine.
When that disc ends, the next disc in the magazine is loaded and played.
After disc 6 has completed, the system will return to disc 1. To make
your own disc selection, push one of the six preset buttons. Your selection
will appear in the display and start
playing.
U.S. EX model

You can use the TUNE/SEEK switch while a disc is playing to
select passages and change tracks.
To move rapidly forward within a track, push up and hold the TUNE/SEEK switch. Push down and hold
the switch to move rapidly backward
within a track. You will hear a beep a
half second after you push the switch up or down. Keep pushing the
switch until you think the track has
advanced or returned to the desired
position. The disc will start playing
when you release the switch.
If you push the TUNE/SEEK switch
up and release it before you hear a
beep, the system will skip forward to the beginning of the next track on
that CD.
It will skip backward to the begin-
ning of the current track if you push
the switch down and release it.

Caring for the Cassette Player

The cassette drive picks up dirt and oxides whenever you play a tape.
This builds up over time and causes the sound quality to degrade. To
prevent this, you should clean the
cassette drive after every 30 hours of
use. Your dealer has a cleaning kit available for this purpose.
After 30 hours of tape use, you will see CLEAN flashing for 5 seconds in
the display when you insert a tape
into the tape slot. If you are already regularly cleaning the tape drive at
least every 30 hours, reset the
indicator by pressing the Preset 6
button while the system is in the
tape operation mode. Hold the
button until you hear a beep and the CLEAN indicator goes out.
If you do not clean the cassette drive
regularly, it may eventually become
impossible to remove the deposits
with a normal cleaning kit.
The cassette player automatically ejects cassettes that do not play
normally. If it ejects a cassette
before it begins to play, it is probably defective and should not be inserted
again. You may have a cassette suddenly stop playing, reverse
directions once or twice and then
eject. This is normally an indication
the tape is wound unevenly. It should
play normally after being manually
rewound. Use 100-minute or shorter cassettes.
Cassettes longer than 100 minutes
use thinner tape that may break or
jam the drive.
Look at a cassette before you insert
it. If the tape is loose, tighten it by
turning one of the hubs with a pencil or your finger.
If the label is peeling off, do not put
it in the player. It may cause the
cassette to jam in the drive mecha-
nism when you try to eject it.
Do not leave cassettes sitting where
they are exposed to high heat or
humidity, such as on top of the dashboard or in the player. If a
cassette is exposed to extreme heat
or cold, let it reach a moderate
temperature before putting it in the

player.
