Lotus suggested retail price for all warranted parts replaced, and labour charges based on Lotus’s recommended warranty repair
times, and the geographically appropriate hourly rate. A repair
not being complete within 30 days constitutes an emergency.
Replaced parts and paid invoices must be presented at a Lo
-
tus dealership as a condition of reimbursement for emergency repairs not performed at a Lotus dealer.
You are advised to perform all recommended maintenance
or repairs on your new, USA specification, Lotus Elise. You are responsible for the performance of the required maintenance.
Lotus will not deny a warranty claim solely because you have
no record of maintenance; however, Lotus may deny a warranty
claim if your failure to perform required maintenance resulted in the failure of a warranted part. Receipts and maintenance records covering the per formance of regular maintenance
should be retained in the event questions arise concerning
maintenance. The receipts and maintenance records should be
transferred to each subsequent owner of this car.

CALIFORNIA EMISSIONS PERFORMANCE WARRANTYLotus Cars Ltd. (Lotus) warrants to the owner of any new, USA
specification, Lotus Elise, that if, during a period of 3 years or
50,000 miles, whichever first occurs, the car should fail to pass an Inspection/Maintenance test, for reasons other than those detailed on page 167 (‘What is not covered by the Emission
Warranty’), then the car will be repaired at no cost to the owner.
The car is to be repaired so that it will pass the I/M test, and these repairs shall include diagnosis, replacement, repair, and adjustment of those defective parts affecting emissions. The warranty period shall begin on the date the car is deliv
-
ered to the first retail purchaser, or, if the car is first placed in
service as a demonstrator or company car prior to sale at retail,
on the date the car is first placed in such service. If your car fails a Smog Check test or a Federal Emissions
Short test, you may choose to have diagnosis of the failure and repairs made at a Lotus dealer or at another service facility. You
may take your car to a Lotus dealer for warranty repairs and diagnosis without charge. You will have to pay for diagnostic
costs and repairs if performed at another service facility except in the case of emergency repairs (see page 164). If your car fails
a Smog Check test or a Federal Emissions Short test after the
3 year/50,000 mile performance warranty period has expired, but before 7 years/70,000 miles is reached, those parts listed
on page 168 are still covered by the defects warranty. If the warranty station demonstrates that the test failure was
caused by one or more of the conditions excluded from war
-
ranty coverage (see below), the car owner shall be liable for all
diagnostic and repair expenses. Such expenses shall not exceed
the maximum repair costs permissible under the California Car
Inspection Programme. Failure to notify the owner within 30 days that a performance warranty claim is invalid, shall render
Lotus liable for the repair costs. If the warranty station identifies
that the test failure was caused by one or more defects covered under warranty, and in combination with one or more of the conditions excluded from warranty coverage (see below), then
the car owner shall be responsible only for that proportion of the diagnostic and repair costs that is not covered by warranty.
