Seat Belts - Acura NSX Owner's Manual

SAFETY INFORMATION
Engaging in cell phone conversation or other activities that keep you from paying
close attention to the road, other vehicles, and pedestrians could lead to a crash.
Remember, situations can change quickly, and only you can decide when it is
safe to divert some attention away from driving.
Your vehicle is not recommended for child passengers. The National Highway
Traffic Safety Administration and Transport Canada recommend that all children
ages 12 and under be properly restrained in a back seat. Since this vehicle does
not have a back seat, we strongly recommend that you do not carry any child
who is not large enough and mature enough to ride in front.

n Carbon Monoxide Gas
The engine exhaust from this vehicle contains carbon monoxide, a colorless,
odorless, and highly toxic gas. As long as you properly maintain your vehicle and
follow the instructions set forth below, you will not accumulate dangerous levels
of carbon monoxide gas in the vehicle interior.
Have the exhaust system inspected for leaks whenever:
• The exhaust system is making an unusual noise.
• The exhaust system may have been damaged.
• The vehicle is raised for an oil change.
Carbon monoxide gas is toxic. Breathing it can cause unconsciousness and even
kill you. Avoid any enclosed areas or activities that expose you to carbon
monoxide.
An enclosed area such as a garage can quickly fill up with carbon monoxide gas.
Do not run the engine with the garage door closed. Even when the garage door is
open, drive out of the garage immediately after starting the engine.

Seat Belts

A seat belt is your best protection in all types of collisions. Airbags are designed to
supplement seat belts, not replace them. So even though your vehicle is equipped
with airbags, make sure you and your passengers always wear your seat belts and
wear them properly.
