Be sure electronic accessories do
not overload electrical circuits
(see page
).
If possible, have your dealer inspect
the final installation.
Before installing any accessory:
Modifying your car, or installing
some non-Acura accessories, can
make your car unsafe. Before you
make any modifications or add any
accessories, be sure to read the
following information.
Your dealer has Acura accessories
that allow you to personalize your car.
These accessories have been
designed and approved for your car,
and are covered by warranty.
When properly installed, cellular
phones, alarms, two-way radios, and
low-powered audio systems should
not interfere with your car’s
computer-controlled systems, such
as the SRS and anti-lock brake
system.
Make sure the accessory does not
obscure any lights, or interfere
with proper car operation or
performance.
Have the installer contact your
Acura dealer for assistance before
installing any electronic accessory.
However, if electronic accessories
are improperly installed, or exceed
your car’s electrical system capacity,
they can interfere with the operation
of your car, or even cause the
airbags to deploy.
Non-Acura accessories are usually
designed for universal applications.
Although aftermarket accessories
may fit on your car, they may not
meet factory specifications, and
could adversely affect your car’s
handling and stability. (See
‘‘Modifications’’ on page
for
additional information.)
