OPERA
TION
When the AHDI-I01 interface is installed the radio will see the interface as a cd
changer. It is recommended to use the XIA-LCD to get the most out of your iPod
or HD radio. If there is a factory cd changer already in the vehicle that is not an
in dash type, the cd changer will have to be disconnected.
Note: The Acura/Honda radios vary in what buttons they have however this
instruction will cover as many buttons as possible. The radios will not have every
button described below but the definition of the buttons displayed on the radio
will still be valid.
