Audio System
AM/FM Stereo Audio System
The audio system is standard equip-
ment on the U.S. DX model and
Canadian models. It is optional on
the U.S. CX model.
Your Honda's audio system provides
clear reception on both AM and FM
bands, while the preset buttons allow
you to easily select your favorite
stations.
A cassette player, CD player or CD
changer is available as optional
equipment.
Operating the Radio
The ignition switch must be in
ACCESSORY (I) or ON (II) to
operate the audio system. Turn the
system on by pressing the PWR/
VOL knob or the AM/FM button.
Adjust the volume by turning the
knob.
The band and frequency that the
radio was last tuned to is displayed.
To change bands, press the AM/FM
button. On the FM band, ST will be
displayed if the station is broadcast-
ing in stereo. Stereo reproduction on
AM is not available.
You can use any of three methods to
find radio stations on the selected
band: TUNE, SEEK, or the Preset
buttons.
TUNE — Use the TUNE/SEEK
switch to tune the radio to a desired
frequency. Press the right side ( )
to tune to a higher frequency, or the
left side ( ) to tune to a lower
frequency. The frequency numbers
will start to change rapidly. Release
the switch when the display reaches
the desired frequency. To change
the frequency in small increments,
press and release the TUNE/SEEK
switch quickly.
SEEK — The SEEK function
searches the band for a station with
a strong signal. To activate it, press
the TUNE/SEEK switch until you
hear a beep, then release it.
Depending on which side of the
switch you press, the system scans
upward or downward from the
current frequency. It stops when it
finds a station with a strong signal.
Preset — You can store the
frequencies of your favorite radio
stations in the six preset buttons.
Each button will store one frequency
on the AM band, and two
frequencies on the FM band.
