HEATING, VENTILATION & AIR CONDITIONINGThe small size of the Elise together with the method of
construction and emphasis on lightweight, have resulted in heating and a.c. sytems which perform well under non-extreme
climatic conditions. In extreme temperatures and humidity the operational limits of the systems may be reached before the
desired temperature, or rate of temperature change inside the
car is achieved. The heating and ventilation controls comprise three rotary
switches to regulate; heater temperature, fan speed and air dis
-
tribution. Push button switches are provided for air conditioning and air re-circulation.
Air Conditioning The left hand push button selects air conditioning, but the
following conditions must first be met before the system will
operate:
• The engine must be running;
• A fan speed must be selected;
• Ambient temperature must be above 3°C.
With a fully cold temperature setting, refrigerated air will be
supplied. For dehumidified warm air, select air conditioning in
conjunction with a warm temperature setting. The tell tale in the switch button will light up blue when the
circuit is active. Note that the a.c. will default to ‘off’ when the ignition is turned off.

INTERIOR CLIMATE CONTROLS

Page 64 of 205
Air Re- circulation The air supply for the interior climate system is normally drawn
from both the car interior and from the fresh air intake duct ahead
of the engine cooling radiator. When the re-circulation button is pressed, the fresh air intake port is closed down to provide 90%
re-circulation air supply to the cabin interior. The re-circulation
facility should be used when maximum refrigeration is desired.
The tell tale in the switch button will light up blue when the
circuit is active.
Heater Temperature With the left hand rotary control turned fully counterclockwise,
no heating is provided. If cooled air is required, use this tem
-
perature position in conjunction with air conditioning. Turning the control progressively clock wise provides in
-
creasing levels of heat until at the fully clockwise position, maximum heat is supplied.
Fan Speed The centre rotary switch provides three fan speeds to boost air
circulation. Turned fully counterclockwise, the fan is off; Turning
the switch progressively clockwise operates the blower fan at increasing speed in three steps. Note that the fan operates only with the ignition switched on.

Directions for use of the aerosol: Before using, carefully read all the instructions on the canister, or on any literature
accompanying the product. The following instructions ap
-
ply to the use of Holts Tireweld:
1. Remove the object causing the puncture, and position the wheel with the puncture site lowermost. Deflate tire
fully.
2. Shake the can vigorously. In cold conditions, warm the
can using the car's heater outlets, or by body warmth.
3. Screw the aerosol tube onto the tire valve, remove the cap, hold the can upright and press the button until the
tire is firmly inflated.
4. Immediately drive for 6 - 12 miles (10 - 20 km) (or to the tire repair facility if nearer) in a moderate manner and not exceeding 30 mph (45 km/h), to allow the sealant
to spread. Then check and adjust the tire pressure as necessary.
5. Have the tire professionally repaired or replaced at the earliest opportunity, and until such time, limit speed to
30 mph (45 km/h) with a moderate driving manner. Note that some tire repairers may make an additional charge
for cleaning the sealant off the tire before repair, and
that any subsequent repairs may not be guaranteed.
6. Renew the puncture repair aerosol.

Engine Compartment FusesFuses associated with the engine management system are
contained in two 4-position fuse holders located at the front of
the engine bay on the cabin bulkhead, adjacent to the engine ECM. To access the fuses, unclip rear edge of the cover.

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.
