REMOVING ACCESS PANEL
Front Service Access PanelsThe front body has two removable access panels to allow
servicing of the brake/clutch fluid reservoir and main fusebox.
To remove an access panel:
Use the hexagonal key supplied
in the car tool kit (in the battery cover rear pocket), to release
the single threaded fastener securing the outboard corner of
the panel, and withdraw the panel from the two locating holes in the front body spine. Guard against the lightweight panel being blown away and
damaged by a strong wind.
To refit a panel: Hook the extended lip on the front edge of the panel beneath the rear edge of the louvre panel before engaging
the two locating pegs on the inboard side of the access panel
with the holes in the front body spine. Fit the single screw at
the outboard corner of the panel into the captive nut in the body,
taking care not to cross-thread or overtighten the screw. Re-stow
the hexagonal key in the tool kit.
WARNING: Ensure the access panels are refitted and properly se
-
cured before driving.

- Remove the plug, and check that the oil is level with the bottom of the hole. Note that the release of oil trapped
by the plug, should not be confused with an indication of
correct oil level.
- If necessary, add only the specified lubricant (see ‘Recom
-
mended Lubricants’) via the level plug hole until the oil level
stabilises at the bottom of the plug hole.
- Refit the level plug with a new sealing washer, and tighten securely. Refit the undertray.
To renew transmission oil:
WARNING:
• Engine oil is hazardous to your health and may be fatal
if swallowed.
• Take all suitable precautions to guard against scalding
from the hot oil.
• Prolonged and repeated contact with used engine oil may cause serious skin disorders, including dermatitis and
cancer.
• Use protective gloves to avoid contact with skin as far as possible and wash thoroughly after any contact.
• Keep out of reach of children.

WARNING:Inexper t modifications or additions to the electrical
system could jeopardise safety.
Inertia Switch The safety inertia switch is designed to operate on impact,
typified by car collision, to switch off the fuel pump, and thus
minimise any fire hazard. The central door locking will also be
triggered to unlock the doors. The inertia switch is mounted at the left hand bottom of the
engine bay, on the inboard face of the rear subframe, and is ac
-
cessible from between the coolant header tank and windscreen
washer reservoir. The switch is reset by pressing the rubber
diaphragm button on the top of the unit.
Fuses The main fusebox is located in the front services compartment,
on the passenger side, and is protected by a plastic cover. For
access, remove the passenger side front body access panel,
and unclip the fusebox lid. Twenty two slots are provided for ‘Littel’ type fuses which are
numbered, and coloured according to their amperage rating, and
may be pulled out from their slots using the fuse extractor tool provided on the fusebox lid.

WARNING:Replacing a fuse with one which has a higher rating may
cause extensive damage to the electrical system and pos
-
sibly cause a fire. If a fuse of the correct rating is not avail
-
able, use one of a lower rating as a temporary measure.

WARNING:
• To avoid injury, beware of rotating engine components and guard against entrapment of body parts, tools and
loose clothing.
• Stop engine before servicing fuses.
• Beware of hot surfaces in the engine bay. You could be seriously burned if you touch a hot engine part.
• Take great care not to drop flammable liquids or objects onto a hot engine and start a fire.

C; Garage use with 4-point lift. Do not use if the diffuser panel is
fitted. Beneath the outboard end of the chassis crossmember ahead of the rear wheelarches. Take care to position the jack
between the fixing screws for the fuel tank bay perforated
undershield. Avoid the fuel tank brackets.
D; Do not use if the diffuser panel is fitted. Beneath the rear
subframe, close to the lower wishbone rearmost mountings.
NOTICE: In order fully to exploit the benefits of light weight, and
to maximise stowage space, the Elise has no provision for spare
wheel carriage or lifting jack. A temporary puncture repair facility is provided in the form of a tire inflator aerosol (see page 124).
Fuel Tank Undershield
WARNING: The perforated panel enclosing the underside of the fuel
tank bay, contributes to the structural rigidity of the chassis
frame. Do not use the car with this panel removed.
