Hi Bienvenue,
Perhaps you should ask whether you really want to "sort it out". The
warning is telling you that you are converting the NA values to NA in
the returned numeric vector.
I don't think that's what it is saying. I think it is saying that a
non-NA value is being converted to NA, because R can't figure out what
number it is. For example,
> as.numeric(c("1", NA))
[1] 1 NA
> as.numeric(c("1", NA, "one"))
[1] 1 NA NA
Warning message:
NAs introduced by coercion
I can't think of anything more sensible
to do with NA values. You may also have character strings that cannot
be converted into numbers, which will also generate NA values.
I think that's the only way that message will appear.

Maybe a
little example will help us to understand:
charstr<-c("5","foot","2",NA,"eyes","of","blue")
as.numeric(charstr)
[1] 5 NA 2 NA NA NA NA
