Your Honda’s audio system has an
in-dash CD changer that holds up to
six discs, providing several hours of
continuous entertainment. You
operate this CD changer with the
same controls used for the radio.

To load CDs or operate the CD
changer, the ignition switch must be
in ACCESSORY (I) or ON (II).

Play only standard round discs. 

Odd-shaped CDs may jam in the 

drive or cause other problems.

You can also play 3-inch (8 cm) 

discs without using an adapter ring.

Avoid using CDs that have adhesive-

type labels. The edges can curl up

and cause the CD to jam in the drive.
