    Radio Code should have been supplied separate from Owners Manual. Its a card with four numbers. You will have to take vehicle to Dealer to have Code Installed on you Radio. They can access your Radio code by Vehicle Identification Number.

    The code for my radio was on a card that was put in a clear sleeve on the outside on the owner's manual "pouch". If you can't find it with your owner's manual bundle, you'll be able to get the code from the dealer or Honda owner's link I think. Make an account with your VIN and there will be a link that says "Retrieve radio code". At least my login has a quick link for that

    A lot of Honda and Acura products require removing the stereo from the vehicle, the dealer requires the chassis number of the radio to give you the security code to reactivate the radio. I have written the radio security code under the hood of the car with a "Sharpie" for a lot of our customers, and told them to keep note of the security code with their pink slip/ title.
