Your vehicle’s audio system may
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 with
the preset buttons. Because there
are hundreds of number
combinations possible f rom the f ive
digits, making the system work
without knowing the exact code is
nearly impossible.
If you lose the card, you must obtain
the code number f rom your dealer.
To do this, you will need the audio
system’s serial number. You should have received a radio
code card that lists your audio
system’s code and serial numbers. 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 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.
The system will retain your AM and
FM presets even if power is
disconnected.
If your vehicle’s battery is discon-
nected or goes dead, or the radio
f use is removed, the audio system
will disable itself . If this happens,
youwillsee‘‘ ’’intheupper
display the next time you turn on the
system. Use the preset buttons to
enter the 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 have a My Acura account, you
can retrieve the anti-thef t code
online.
