• DO NOT park or drive the car in areas where combustible
material, such as dry grass or leaves, could come into con-
tact with the hot exhaust system. Under certain wind and
weather conditions a grass fire could be initiated.
• DO NOT tamper with any electrical components with the
battery connected. You could receive an electric shock from
the spark plug coils or initiate a car fire.
• DO NOT check or adjust any engine bay equipment with the
engine running. Failure to comply with this may result in
you or your clothing becoming trapped.
• DO NOT use the car if a fuel leak is suspected, as may
be indicated by a persistent smell of fuel. Have the fault
diagnosed and rectified without delay. A fuel leak may result
in a fire or explosion.
• DO NOT touch or approach, any part of a hot exhaust
system. Failure to comply with this may result in you receiv-
ing severe burns.
• DO NOT allow servicing or repairs to be carried out by un-
skilled persons as this may adversely affect the handling
and safety features on your car. Lotus dealers have trained
staff who are best qualified to maintain your car to the cor-
rect specification.
