NOTE:

Your vehicle’s audio system will
disable itself if it is disconnected
f rom electrical power f or any reason.
To make it work again, you must
enter a specif ic f ive-digit code in the
preset buttons. Because there are
hundreds of number combinations
possible f rom f ive-digits, making the
system work without knowing the
exact code is nearly impossible.
Youshouldhavereceivedacardthat
lists your audio system code number
and serial number. It is best to store
this card in a saf e place at home. In
addition, you should write the audio
system’s serial number in this
Owner’s Manual.
If youshouldhappentolosethecard,
you must obtain the code number
f rom a Honda dealer. To do this, you
will need the system’s serial number.If your vehicle’s battery is discon-
nected or goes dead, the audio
system will disable itself . If this
happens, you will see ‘‘COdE’’ in the
frequencydisplaythenexttimeyou
turn on the system. Use the Preset
buttons to enter the five-digit code.
The code is located on the radio code
card included in your Owner’s
Manual kit. When it is entered
correctly, the radio will start playing.
If you make a mistake entering the
code, do not start over; complete the
f ive-digit sequence, then enter the
correct code. You have ten tries to
enter the correct code. If you are
unsuccessful in ten attempts, you
must then leave the system on for 1
hour bef ore trying again.
If the code card is lost, a Honda
dealer can access your code with
your radio’s serial number. To
access the serial number, turn the
radio on. It must display ‘‘COdE’’,
then turn the radio off. Push the
preset 1 and preset 6 at the same
time, then quickly release.
You will have to store your favorite
stations in the Preset buttons after
the system begins working. Your
original settings were lost when the
power was disconnected.
