Accessories and Modifications

Modifying your vehicle, or installing
some non-Honda accessories, can

make your vehicle unsafe. Before

you make any modifications or add

any accessories, be sure to read the

following information.

Accessories

Your dealer has Genuine Honda

accessories that allow you to

personalize your vehicle. These

accessories have been designed and
approved for your vehicle, and are
covered by warranty.

Non-Honda accessories are usually
designed for universal applications.

Although aftermarket accessories

may fit on your vehicle, they may not
meet factory specifications, and

could adversely affect your vehicle's

handling and stability. (See

"Modifications" on page

196

for

additional information.)

When properly installed, cellular

phones, alarms, two-way radios, and
low-powered audio systems should
not interfere with your vehicle's
computer-controlled systems, such
as the SRS and anti-lock brake

system.

However, if electronic accessories
are improperly installed, or exceed

your vehicle's electrical system

capacity, they can interfere with the

operation of your vehicle, or even
cause the airbags to deploy.

Before installing any accessory:

Make sure the accessory does not

obscure any lights, or interfere

with proper vehicle operation or

performance.

Be sure electronic accessories do

not overload electrical circuits

(see page

311

).

Have the installer contact your

Honda dealer for assistance before
installing any electronic accessory.

If possible, have your dealer inspect
the final installation.

Before Driving

Improper accessories or

modifications can affect your

vehicle's handling, stability and

performance, and cause a

crash in which you can be hurt
or killed.

Follow all instructions in this

owner's manual regarding
accessories and modifications.
