two frequencies with each Preset

to tune the radio to a desired
station.

you want to change any preset button's selection, store another fre-quency as described. The frequen-
cies you preset will be lost if your

Audio System

Once that station's frequency is
stored, simply press and release the
proper preset button to tune to it. If
you want to change any preset button's selection, store another fre-

quency as described. The frequen-

cies you preset will be lost if your
car's battery goes dead or is discon-

nected.
The AUTO SELECT function allows
you to find stations easily when youare in an unfamiliar area. Press the
AUTO SELECT button. The system automatically scans both bands to
find six strong stations on AM and twelve on FM, and stores their
frequencies in the Preset buttons.
You can then use the Preset buttons in the normal manner to select thosestations. "A SEL" stays displayed
next to the frequency as a reminder.
If you are in a remote area, AUTO
SELECT may not find enough stations to fill all the available
presets. If this is the case, you will see a "0" displayed when you press
any Preset button that does not have
a station stored. You cannot manually store radio
station frequencies in the Preset
buttons when AUTO SELECT is ON. If you do not like the stations found
by AUTO SELECT, you can still use
the TUNE or SEEK function to findother stations.
AUTO SELECT does not erase the stations you have manually preset.
When you return to your normal reception area, turn off AUTO
SELECT by pressing the buttonagain. The light goes out and the
Preset buttons can then select thestations you originally set.

Theft Protection
On U.S. EX model Your car's audio system will disableitself 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 the system work without knowing the
exact code is nearly impossible.
You should have received a card that lists your audio system's code
number and serial number. It is best
to store this card in a safe place at
home, or to keep it in your wallet or
purse. In addition, you should write
the audio system's serial number in
this Owner's Manual. If you should
happen to lose the card, you must obtain 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, the audio system will
disable 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 to
correct your mistake. Complete the
five-digit sequence, then enter the correct code. You have three tries to
enter the correct code. If you are
unsuccessful in three attempts, you must then leave the system on for
one 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.

Battery

If you need to connect the battery to
a charger, disconnect both cables to
prevent damage to the car's electri-
cal system.
On the U.S. EX model

If your car's battery is disconnected
or goes dead, the audio system will
disable itself. The next time you turn
on the radio you will see "Code" in
the frequency display. Use the
Preset buttons to enter the five-digit
code (see page 106).
Charging the battery with the cables
connected can seriously damage your
car's electronic controls. Detach the

battery cables before connecting the

battery to a charger.

Maintenance

The battery gives off explosive
hydrogen gas during normal
operation.
A spark or flame can cause the battery to explode with enough
force to kill or seriously hurt you.
Wear protective clothing and a
face shield, or have a skilled mechanic do the battery
maintenance.
