Driving
Fuel Economy and CO2 Emissions
Improving Fuel Economy and Reducing CO2
Emissions
Achieving fuel economy and reducing CO2 emissions is dependent on several
factors, including driving conditions, load weight, idling time, driving habits, and
vehicle condition. Depending on these and other factors, you may not achieve the
rated fuel economy of this vehicle.
You can optimize your fuel economy with proper maintenance of your vehicle.
Always maintain your vehicle in accord ance with the messages displayed on the
driver information interface.
• Use the recommended viscosity engine oil, displaying the API Certification Seal.
• Maintain the specified tire pressure.
• Do not load the vehicle with excess cargo.
• Keep your vehicle clean. A buildup of snow or mud on your vehicle’s underside
adds weight and increases wind resistance.
■Maintenance and Fuel Economy
1Improving Fuel Economy and Reducing CO2 Emissions
Direct calculation is the recommended method to
determine actual fuel consumed while driving.
In Canada, posted fuel economy numbers are
established following a simulated test. For more
information on how this test is performed, please visit

Driving
Turbo Engine Vehicle
Handling Precautions
The turbocharger is a high-precision device designed to obtain greater horsepower
by delivering a large volume of compressed air into the engine using a turbine driven
by the engine’s exhaust gas pressure.
• When the engine is cold just afte r starting, avoid hard or sudden
acceleration.
• Always replace the engine oil and en gine oil filter according to the
Maintenance Minder
TM.
The turbine rotates at very high speed s over 100,000 rpm and its temperature
reaches over 1,292°F (700°C). It is lubricated and cooled by engine oil.
If you fail to replace the engine oil and filter at the scheduled distance or interval,
deteriorated engine oil may cause failure such as sticking and abnormal noise of the
turbine bearing.
1 Turbo Engine Vehicle
The scheduled maintenance intervals for replacing
the engine oil and filt er is indicated on the
Maintenance Minder
TM. Follow the information of
when to replace them.
2 Maintenance Minder
TM P. 365
2 Recommended Engine Oil P. 376
The temperature gauge needle is at the mark
when you restart the engi ne after driving under high
load conditions such as at high speed or in hilly
terrain. This is normal. The gauge needle goes down
after you idle or drive the vehicle for about one
minute.

uuCleaning uExterior Care
Maintenance
The inside lenses of exterior lights (headlig hts, brake lights, etc.) may fog temporarily
if you have driven in the rain. Dew condensation also may build up inside the lenses
when there is a significant enough differe nce between the ambient and inside lens
temperatures (similar to vehicle windows fogging up in rainy conditions). These
conditions are natural processes, not stru ctural design problems in the exterior
lights.
Lens design characteristics may result in mo isture developing on the light lens frame
surfaces. This also is not a malfunction.
However, if you see large amounts of wa ter accumulation, or large water drops
building up inside the lenses, have your vehicle inspected by an authorized Acura
NSX dealer.
Keep the brake pads and rotors free of subs tances that are either abrasive or oil
based, as these substances can reduce braking power.
When driving in the presence of salt and/ or sand, briefly wash the rotor/pad surfaces
with low-pressure water, and then brake th e system dry to help maintain the brake
system’s performance.
Brake maintenance requires specialized kn owledge. We recommend maintenance
to be carried out by an au thorized Acura NSX dealer.
