Honda Accord: Playing Hard Disc Drive (HDD) Audio
The Hard Disc Drive (HDD) Audio function plays tracks from music CDs that have been recorded onto the built-in HDD. You can arrange the tracks in playlists or play the tracks using various search methods.
• Recording a Music CD to HDD
The songs on music CDs are automatically recorded by factory default to the HDD the first time you play each disc. You can then play the songs directly from the HDD.
You can add tracks to user playlists, where you can mix and match tracks from other CDs recorded on the HDD.
If you stop the engine or the power system is turned off while recording a CD, there may be pauses between songs when you play back from the HDD.
Repeat, random, and scan functions are not available during recording.
You can play music from other sources (e.g., XM, HDD, etc.) while recording.
Please note that there is no compensation offered in the case of unsuccessful recording of audio data or the loss of audio data due to any cause whatsoever.
