time, there may be a problem. See your authorized Acura NSX dealer if necessary.
CanadaU.S.
Brake system
Brake fluid is low, or there is a malfunction in the brake system. Press the brake pedal
lightly to check pedal pressure. If normal, check the brake fluid level when you stop.
If abnormal, take immediate action. If necessary, downshift the transmission to slow
the vehicle using engine braking. Have your vehicle repaired immediately.
Low oil pressure
Engine oil pressure is low. Stop in a safe place. Open the hood and check the oil level,
and add oil if necessary. If the indicator does not turn off, have your vehicle repaired
immediately.

DRIVINGDRIVING
n While Driving
•
You may see a brake warning message in
the Driver
Information Interface (and warning message chime) and/
or experience increased brake pedal stroke. If either occurs,
immediately slow down and allow for increased stopping
distances. The message will disappear once the brakes have
cooled and the system has returned to normal operating
condition.
• After high-performance driving, it is critical to allow your vehicle to properly cool down.
Do not immediately stop your vehicle. Instead, continue driving at reduced speeds,
allowing for increased braking distances until your vehicle returns to normal operating
temperatures. Once you stop and safely park the NSX, open the hatch to aid cooling. If
the engine oil temperature reaches the H mark during high-performance driving, have
your NSX inspected by an authorized Acura NSX dealer.
n
AFTER DRIVING
Check your NSX, and each of its r

elevant components, to make sure that it still is in a safe
operating condition (example: wheel lug bolt torque, tire pressure, etc.). We recommend
you repeat the Before Driving protocol. If any item shows excessive wear or appears to be
in an unusual condition, have it replaced, or exercise appropriate caution when driving and
see your authorized Acura NSX dealer
For more information, please contact your authorized Acura NSX dealer, and/or Acura Client
Relations (see page 213).
Cold or Rainy Weather Driving
Summer-only and Ultra High Performance (UHP) tires are very sensitive to ambient
temperatures and are designed to be used at temperatures above 45°F (7°C). Below that
temperature, Summer-only and UHP tires provide decreasing amounts of grip and other
performance attributes. At temperatures below -4°F (-20°C), the tire treads may become
brittle, resulting in permanent damage to the tread. A damaged tire may fail during use.
Therefore, if you will operate the vehicle when temperatures are below 45°F (7°C), we
recommend you install other tires (e.g., mud+snow, winter) designed to perform under the
expected conditions.
Use of Summer-only or Ultra High Performance tires at temperatures below 45°F
(7°C) may lead to a loss of performance and control, which could result in a crash,
serious injury or death.
WARNING
Your NSX is equipped with ultra-high-performance summer-only tires that, due to their
decreased tread depth, are at greater risk of hydroplaning on wet roads compared to regular
tires. Exercise caution when driving on wet surfaces.
