Testing of Readiness Codes
Your vehicle has readiness codes as part of the onboard self-diagnostic system. Some states use these
codes for testing to verify your vehicle’s emissions components are working properly. The codes may
not be read if you go through the testing just after the battery has gone dead or been disconnected.
To check if they are set, turn the vehicle on without starting the engine. The malfunction indicator
lamp will come on for several seconds. If it goes off, the readiness codes are set. If it blinks five times,
the readiness codes are not set.
If you are required to have your vehicle tested before the readiness codes are set, prepare the vehicle
for retesting by doing the following:
1.
Fill the gas tank to appro

ximately 3/4 full.
2.
Park the v

ehicle and leave the power system off for 6 hours or more.
3.
Make sure the ambient

temperature is between 40°F and 95°F (4°C and 35°C).
4.
Turn the power system on without

touching the accerator pedal, and let it idle for 20 seconds.
5.
Still in Park (P), increase the engine speed

to 2.000 rpm and hold it for about three minutes.
6.
Let the engine idle for 20 seconds without

touching the accelerator.
7.
Select a nearby, lightly

traveled major highway where you can maintain a speed of 50 mph (80
km/h) for at least 20 minutes. Drive on the highway with the vehicle in D and in SPORT mode. Do
not use cruise control.
8.
Drive in city or suburban traffic

for at least 10 minutes. When traffic conditions allow, let the
vehicle coast for several seconds without using the accelerator pedal or the brake pedal.
9.
Park the v

ehicle and leave the power system off for 40 minutes.
The readiness codes are erased when the battery is disconnected, and set again only after several
days of driving under a variety of conditions.
If a testing facility determines that the readiness codes are not set, you may be requested to return at
a later date to complete the test, or see your authorized Acura NSX dealer.
Long-Term Storage
If you need to park your vehicle for an extended period (more than one month), there are
several things you should do to prepare it for storage. This helps reduce possible deterioration of
vehicle components and overall condition, which allows you to get the vehicle back on the road
with minimal delay. These are:
•
If possible, store your NSX in a garage

or enclosed area.
•
Fill the fuel tank completely

.
•
Change the engine oil and filter

.
•
Wash and dry the exterior completel

y.
•
Clean the interior. Make sur

e the carpeting, floor mats, etc., are completely dry.
•
Put the transmission in (P). Release

the parking brake.
•
Leave one window

open slightly (if the vehicle is being stored indoors).
•
Connect the 12-volt battery

to an accessory battery charger. For more information on how
to maintain your 12-volt battery, consult an authorized Acura NSX dealer.
•
If the vehicle is

to be stored for a longer period of time, it should be supported on jack
stands to raise the tires off the ground to prevent tire flat spotting. Consult an authorized
Acura NSX dealer for information about the correct jack stands.
•
Support the front wiper

blade arms with a folded towel or rag so they do not touch the
windshield.
•
Cover

the vehicle with a breathable cover, one made from a porous material such as cotton.
Nonporous materials (such as plastic sheeting) may trap moisture, which can damage the
paint.
