Accessories
Your Acura dealer has many
Genuine Acura Accessories that
allow you to personalize your car.
These have all been approved for
installation and use on your car, and
are covered by warranty.
Some non-Acura accessories you can
buy in the "aftermarket" are
designed for universal applications.
Although they may fit your Acura,
they may not be within factory
specifications. For example, after-
market wheels may not meet Acura's
specifications for width and offset.
They could cause suspension
problems which would not be
covered by your warranty. Im-
properly-designed accessories can
adversely affect your car's handling
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.
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
intended for mobile use may inter-
fere with your car's operation. If you
want to install a cellular telephone,
other mobile communications
equipment or even add-on stereo
amplifiers, please discuss it first with
your Acura dealer.
In many cases, improper installation
is the real cause of problems with
aftermarket accessories. Have these
accessories installed by qualified
technicians who are familiar with
your Acura. If possible, have your
Acura dealer inspect the final
installation.
