Your Honda dealer has many acces-
sories available to personalize your
car. Some of these are audio sys-
tems, alloy wheels, air conditioning,
and color-coordinated carpet floor
mats. All Genuine Honda Acces-
sories have been approved by our
engineers for installation and use
on your car, and are covered by
warranty.
Some non-Honda accessories you
can buy in the "aftermarket" are
designed for universal applications.
Although they may fit your Honda,
they may not be within factory
specifications. For example, after-
market wheels may not meet
Honda's specifications for width
and offset. They could cause sus-
pension problems which would not
be covered by your warranty. Im-
properly-designed accessories can
adversely affect your car's han-
dling and stability.
Your car has several computer-
controlled systems, including the
SRS system, the engine's fuel
injection, and the Anti-lock brake
system. Strong electronic inter-
ference can affect their operation.
Accessories
Electronic communications equip-
ment, such as cellular telephones
and two-way radios are regulated
by the FCC (DOC in Canada) and
should not interfere with your car's
systems. Improper installation, or
using electrical equipment not in-
tended for mobile use may inter-
fere with your car's operation. If
you want to install a cellular tele-
phone, other mobile communi-
cations equipment or even add-on
stereo amplifiers, please discuss it
first with your Honda dealer.
In many cases, improper instal-
lation is the real cause of problems
with aftermarket accessories. Have
these accessories installed by quali-
fied technicians who are familiar
with your Honda. If possible, have
your Honda dealer inspect the final
installation.
