Change r

A trunk-mounted Compact Disc changer is available for your vehicle.
It holds up to six discs, providing
several hours of continuous entertainment. You operate this CD
changer with the same controls used
for the in-dash CD player.
Load the desired CDs in the
magazine and load the magazine in the changer according to theinstructions that came with the unit.
Play only standard round discs. Odd-
shaped CDs may jam in the drive or
cause other problems.
To select the CD changer, press the
CD button. The disc and track
numbers will be displayed. A "0" will flash for the track number as the CD
is loaded, then it will change to a
non-flashing "1".
To select a different disc, press the
appropriate preset button (1 — 6). If
you select an empty slot in the
magazine, the changer will, after
finding that slot empty, try to load the CD in the next slot. This
continues until it finds a CD to load
and play.
If you load a CD in the in-dash player
while the changer is playing a CD, the system will stop the changer and
begin playing the in-dash CD. To select the changer again, press the
CD button. Play will begin where it
left off. Use the CD button to switch
between the player and the changer.
If you eject the in-dash CD while it is
playing, the system will automatically
switch to the CD changer and begin
play where it left off. If there are no
CDs in the changer, the display will
flash. You will have to select another mode (AM or FM) with the button. When you switch back to CD mode,
the system selects the same unit (in-
dash or changer) that was playing
when you switched out of CD mode.
To use the SKIP, REPEAT, and
RANDOM functions, refer to the in-
dash player operating instructions.

TM S — The Tape Music Search
function allows you to find the
beginning of a song or passage. To
activate TMS, press the SEEK bar. Press the side to advance to the
beginning of the next song or
passage, or the side to return to
the beginning of the current song or
passage. FF or REW will flash in the
display as the tape moves. When the
system reaches the beginning of thenext song or passage (FF), or the
beginning of the current one (REW), it goes back to PLAY mode.
REPEA T — The Repeat function
continuously replays the current
song or passage. Press the REPEAT button to activate it; you will see RPT
displayed as a reminder. When the
system reaches the end of the song
or passage currently playing, it will
automatically go into rewind. When it senses the beginning of the
same song or passage, the system
returns to PLAY mode. It will continue to repeat this same
program until you deactivate
REPEAT by pressing the button
again.
The TMS and REPEAT functions
use silent periods on the tape to find
the end of a song or passage. These
features may not work to your satisfaction if there is almost no gap
between selections, a high noise
level between selections, or a silent
period in the middle of a selection.

t Protectio n
Your car's audio system will disable itself if it is disconnected fromelectrical power for any reason. To
make 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 codenumber and serial number. It is best
to store this card in a safe place at
home. 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
Acura 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 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.

Engin
e Oi l
A fuel-efficient oil is recommended for your Acura. This is shown on the
API Service label by the words "Energy Conserving." This oil is
formulated to help your engine use
less fuel. The API Service label also tells you
the service classification of the oil.
Always use an oil that is labeled "API
Service SJ." This service rating may
include other classifications, such as
CD. These additional classifications
are not a problem, as long as the
label also carries the SJ classification.
API SERVIC E LABE L The oil container may also display
the API Certification seal. Make sure
it says "For Gasoline Engines."

Batter
y

If the terminals are severely cor-
roded, clean them with baking soda
and water. Then use a wrench to
loosen and remove the cables from
the terminals. Always disconnect the negative (—) cable first and recon-
nect it last. Clean the battery termi-nals with a terminal cleaning tool or
wire brush. Reconnect and tighten the cables, then coat the terminals
with grease. If you need to connect the battery to
a charger, disconnect both cables to
prevent damage to the car's
electrical system.
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 115 ).

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

NOTIC
E

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.
