Accessories and Modifications

Modifying your car, or installing
some non-Acura accessories, can
make your car unsafe. Before you
make any modifications or add any
accessories, be sure to read the

following information.

Accessories

Your dealer has Genuine Acura

accessories that allow you to
personalize your car. These
accessories have been designed and
approved for your car, and are
covered by warranty.

Non-Acura accessories are usually
designed for universal applications.

Although aftermarket accessories

may fit on your car, they may not
meet factory specifications, and
could adversely affect your car's

handling and stability. (See

"Modifications" on the page

173

for

additional information.)

When properly installed, cellular

phones, alarms, two-way radios, and
low-powered audio systems should
not interfere with your car's
computer-controlled systems, such
as the SRS and anti-lock brake
system.

However, if electronic accessories
are improperly installed, or exceed

your car's electrical system capacity,

they can interfere with the operation
of your car, or even cause the
airbags to deploy.

Before installing any accessory:

Make sure the accessory does not
obscure any lights, or interfere

with proper car operation or
performance.

Be sure electronic accessories do
not overload electrical circuits

(see page

287

).

Have the installer contact your

Acura dealer for assistance before
installing any electronic accessory.

If possible, have your dealer inspect
the final installation.

Before Driving

Improper accessories or
modifications can affect your

car's handling, stability and
performance, and cause a
crash in which you can be hurt
or killed.

Follow all instructions in this

owner's manual regarding
accessories and modifications.
