The cassette player picks up dirt and
oxides f rom the tape. This contami-
nation builds up over time and
causes the sound quality to degrade.
To prevent this, you should clean the
player af ter 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 the
contamination 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 f inger.
If the label is peeling of f , remove it
from the cassette or it could cause
the cassette to jam in the player.
Never try to insert a warped or
damaged cassette in the player.
When they are not in use, store
cassettes in their cases to protect
them f rom dust and moisture. Never
place cassettes where they will be
exposed to direct sunlight, high heat,
or high humidity. If a cassette is

Your car’s audio system will disable
itself if it is disconnected f rom
electrical power f or any reason. To
make it work again, the user must
enter a specif ic code using the preset
bars or the TUNE knob. Because
there are hundreds of number
combinations possible, making the
system work without knowing the
exact code is nearly impossible.
Youshouldhavereceivedacardthat
lists your audio system’s code
number and serial number. It is best
tostorethiscardinasafeplaceat
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 f rom your
Honda dealer. To do this, you will
need the system’s serial number. When all the digits in the code are
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
sequence, then enter the correct
code. You have ten tries to enter the
correct code. If you are unsuccessf ul
in ten attempts, you must then leave
the system on f or one hour bef ore
trying again.
If your car is equipped with a
navigation system, press and release
the TUNE knob; the number ‘‘0’’
appears on the display.
You will have to store your favorite
stations on each side of the preset
bars (1 6) af ter the system begins
working. Your original settings were
lost when power was disconnected.
If your car’s battery is disconnected
or goes dead, or the radio f use is
removed, the audio system will
disable itself . If this happens, you
will see ‘‘ ’’/‘‘ ’’ in the
frequencydisplaythenexttimeyou
turn on the system. Use the preset
bars to enter the code.
If ‘‘0’’ is not the f irst digit in your
code, turn the TUNE knob lef t or
right until the f irst digit is
displayed. Press and release the
TUNE knob to store it. Enter the
remaining digits the same way. If ‘‘0’’ is the f irst digit in your code,
press and release the TUNE knob
