Electrical Accessories
Owners should note that the only approved extras and modi-
fications are those which are specified by Lotus and carried out
by Lotus or by an authorised dealer. Lotus will accept no liability
whatsoever for defects which arise from extras or modifications
which are not approved by Lotus.
WARNING
Inexpert modifications or additions to the electrical system

Inertia Switch
The safety inertia switch is designed to operate on impact,
typified by vehicle 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 on the backstay at the extreme
left hand side of the engine bay, ahead of the airbox, and is reset
by pressing the rubber diaphragm button on the top of the unit.
