uuBefore DrivinguHigh-Performance Driving
Driving
High-performance driving requires special skills, knowledge and experience, as the
safety risks are greatly increased when the NSX is operated at its upper performance
abilities. As a responsible NSX driver, you should not drive above your skill limits or
training, even if the NSX’s performance leve ls would otherwise allow you to do so.
If you intend to engage in high-performa nce driving, Acura strongly recommends
that: • You first obtain appropriate, professional training
• Turn off any devices or systems that may distract you from the driving task
High-performance driving in general, and the use of TRACK mode and Launch
Control in particular, puts very high loads on the NSX and its components, and
results in greater wear and tear on the vehicl e. Because of these high loads, if your
NSX is not in top condition or if certain com ponents, such as the brakes or tires, have
undue wear, those components could experience a loss of performance, or fail,
when engaging in high-performance drivin g. Therefore, Acura highly recommends
that you undertake more proactive and frequent maintenance than that required
under normal use and have your vehicle inspected at an authorized Acura NSX
dealer (and all necessary repairs or adju stments made) before you engage in any
high-performance driving. In addition to any required maintenance, there are
certain NSX specific items and protocols th at you should pay special attention to
before, during and after engaging in any high-performance driving. Ultimately, the
decision whether to engage in high-perfo rmance driving is yours, and depending on
your NSX’s condition and prior usage, the items and protocols listed below may or
may not be sufficient to ensure a safe driving experience.
BEFORE DRIVING •With the vehicle parked on level gro und, properly bleed brake system after
replacing with Acura Heavy Duty Brake Fluid DOT 4 or equivalent
• Inspect brake pad thickness an d replace if 6.0 mm or less

uuWhen DrivinguDual Clutch Transmission
Driving
If there is a strong impact with something under the vehicle, stop in a safe location.
Check the underside of the vehicle for damage or any fluid leaks.
If any of these components are damaged or loose, the stability, handling, and
powertrain cooling performance of the vehicle may be adversely affected.
Dual Clutch Transmission
As with a conventional gasoline-powered ve hicle with an automatic transmission,
this vehicle will creep.
Keep the brake pedal firmly depressed when stopped.
The accelerator pedal features a kick down switch. Quickly depressing the
accelerator pedal while driving may cause the transmission to drop to a lower gear,
subsequently increasing vehicle speed. De press the accelerator pedal carefully,
especially when driving uphill, on slippery roads, and curves.
■Other Precautions
■Creeping
■Kickdown
1Precautions While Driving
Do not press the
(N button, as you will lose
regenerative braking (and ac celeration) performance.
Avoid hard braking for the first 200 miles (300 km).
You should also follow this recommendation when
the brake pads are replaced.
Models with iron brake discs
1Dual Clutch Transmission
The DCT will not operate when it is extremely cold. If the vehicle has been park ed in extremely cold
conditions, after you start th e engine, wait until it
gets warm. Keep your vehicle parked until the
READY indicator comes on.

Driving
SPORT+ mode optimizes dynamic response
from all powertrain an d chassis systems -
perfect for your favorite winding road. • EV operation is elimin ated while operating
in SPORT+ .
TRACK mode gives maximum, consistent
performance from dyna mic systems during
track day lapping sessions. Hybrid battery
charge is maintained for consistent performance. • VSA ® OFF indicator is illuminated in TRACK
mode indicating reduced stability control.
This allows more body side slip and wheel
spin before VSA ® begins to operate.
• Integrated Dynamics switch must be turned
and held to the right for several seconds to
engage TRACK mode.
■SPORT+ Mode
■TRACK Mode1TRACK Mode Before choosing the TRACK mode, carefully read the
information about high performance driving.

During TRACK mode, the climate control system may
weaken its function to pr ioritize cooling the High
Voltage battery.

Do not use this system when driving on wet or
slippery surfaces as you may lose control of the
vehicle.
The system puts a tremend ous load on the engine
and transmission. Frequent use of this system may
lead to reduced vehicle life.
The system does not function when: • VSA ® is off.
• The vehicle is not at standstill.
• The gear position is not in .
• A gear other than 1st gear is selected when the
system is in manual mode.
• The parking brake is applied.
• The vehicle is facing uphill or downhill on a steep
slope.
• The transmission temperatur e is too cold or too
hot.
• There is a problem with a vehicle system.
3WARNING
Using this system on public roads that are
used by other vehicles and pedestrians can
result in a collision involving serious injury
or death.
