HONDA S2000 - Manual (Page 202)

Check the condition of the battery
monthly by looking at the test
indicator window. The label on the
battery explains the test indicator’s
colors.
Check the terminals for corrosion (a
white or yellowish powder). To
remove it, cover the terminals with a
solution of baking soda and water. It
will bubble up and turn brown. When
this stops, wash it off with plain
water. Dry off the battery with a
cloth or paper towel. Coat the
terminals with grease to help prevent
future corrosion. If your vehicle’s battery is
disconnected, or goes dead, the
clock setting in the instrument panel
will be canceled. To reset the time,
see page
.
If your vehicle’s battery is
disconnected, or goes dead, the
audio system will disable itself. The
next time you turn on the radio, you
may see ‘‘CODE’’ (U.S. model) or
‘‘Code’’ (Canadian model) in the
frequency display. Use the preset
buttons to enter the code (see page
).
