Driving
■When the Integrated Dynamics System mode is in TRACK mode
When you set the Integrated Dynamics System mode to TRACK, the VSA ® system
switches to Track mode and the VSA ® OFF indicator comes on. The VSA ® features
do not stop, but the thresholds for them to activate become higher. Additional care
should be used while driving in TRACK mode, and TRACK mode should only be
used while driving on closed circuits.
To enter Stuck Vehicle Assist mode, press
the VSA® OFF button until a single beep is
heard.
u This message appears on the driver
information interface for a few seconds.
If the Integrated Dyna mics System mode is
changed, VSA ® will remain in Stuck Vehicle
Assist mode.
To exit Stuck Vehicle Assist mode, press the
VSA ® OFF button until a single beep is heard.
u This message appears on the driver
information interface.1When the Integrated Dynamics System mode is in TRACK mode
In OFF mode, your vehicle wi ll have normal braking
and cornering ability, bu t it will not have VSA®
traction and stability enhancement.
When the VSA ® system is off, the traction control
system and agile handling assist system are also off.
We do not recommend driving your vehicle with the
VSA ®, traction control syst em, and agile handling
assist system switched off.
If the low tire pressure/TPMS indicator comes on or
blinks, the VSA® system comes on automatically. In
this case, you can select Stuck Vehicle Assist mode
to free a stuck vehicle, but you cannot select the
VSA ® OFF mode by pressing the button.

Driving
Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)
Monitors the tire pr essure while you are
driving. If your vehicle’s tire pressure becomes
significantly low, the low tire pressure/TPMS
indicator comes on and a message appears on
the driver information interface.1 Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)
Conditions such as low ambient temperature and
altitude change directly affect tire pressure and can
trigger the low tire pressure/TPMS indicator to come
on.
2 If the Low Tire Pressure/TPMS Indicator
Comes On or Blinks P. 455
Tire pressure checked and inflated in:
•Warm weather can beco me under-inflated in
colder weather.
•Cold weather can become over-inflated in warmer
weather.
The low tire pressure/TPMS indicator will not come
on as a result of over inflation.

Driving
To select the tire pressure monitor, set the power
mode to ON, and roll the right selector wheel
until you see the tire pressure screen.
The pressure for each tire is displayed in PSI
(U.S.) or kPa (Canada).
Tire Pressures Low is displayed when a tire
has significantly low pressure. The specific tire
is displayed on the screen.
Tire Pressure Too Low For High Speed
Driving is displayed when driving at an
extremely high speed and one or more tires
are underinflated.
u Decelerate and drive your vehicle until
the message disappears.
■Tire Pressure Monitor1Tire Pressure Monitor
The pressure displayed on the driver information
interface can be slightly different from the actual
pressure as measured by a gauge. If there is a
significant di fference between the two values, or if
the low tire pressure/TPMS indicator and the message
on the driver information in terface do not go off after
you have inflated the tire to the specified pressure,
have the system checked by an authorized Acura NSX
dealer.
Tire Pressure Monitor Problem may appear on the
driver information interface if there is a problem with
the TPMS. Please have the system checked by an
authorized Acura NSX dealer.

Continued
Driving
Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) - Required
Federal Explanation
Each tire, including the spare (if provided), should be checked
monthly when cold and inflated to the inflation pressure
recommended by the vehicle manufa cturer on the vehicle placard
or tire inflation pressure label.
(If your vehicle has tires of a diff erent size than the size indicated
on the vehicle placard or tire inflation pressure label, you should
determine the proper tire inflat ion pressure for those tires.)
As an added safety feature, your vehicle has been equipped with
a tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) that illuminates a low
tire pressure telltale
when one or more of your tires is significantly under-inflated.
Accordingly, when the low tire pressure telltale illuminates, you
should stop and check your tires as soon as possible, and inflate
them to the proper pressure.
Driving on a significantly under-inf lated tire causes the tire to
overheat and can lead to tire fail ure. Under-inflation also reduces
fuel efficiency and tire tread life, and may affect the vehicle’s
handling and stopping ability.
