Whilst driving the tell tale may flicker
amber, indicating that the ESP has been
triggered and electronic intervention is
taking place; the tractive limit has been

modified accordingly.
If however the warning lamp illuminates
constantly, a fault has been detected and
ESP will not be enabled and you should
see your dealer without delay. (See page

Will illuminate with the ignition switched
on whenever the parking brake is applied.
Check that the tell tale is extinguished
each time the parking brake is released.
Driving the vehicle with the parking brake
not fully disengaged will cause overheating
damage to the rear brakes.

after the check period with the parking
brake released, stop the car immediately

in the master cylinder reservoir has been
detected. The car should not be driven until

also see page 88 for further information.
WARNING
If the tell tale remains lit when the
parking brake has been released, the
footbrake may not be working properly.
Stop the car immediately if it is safe so
to do and do not continue until the fault
has been rectified.
Anti-lock Braking System (ABS)
If the lamp remains illuminated, or comes
on whilst driving, a fault in the ABS is
indicated; however the vehicle will retain
conventional servo-assisted braking.
Oil Pressure
Illuminates to warn of low oil pressure
and should extinguish as soon as the
engine is started. If the lamp fails to go out
after engine start up, or comes on when
the engine is running, stop the engine
immediately or when it is safe to do so and
do not restart until the cause has been
investigated and rectified.
WARNING
Continuing to run the engine with the
oil tell tale lit could result in loss of car
control and an accident.
NOTICE: Continuing to run the engine
with the oil tell tale lit could cause major
engine damage or seizure.
Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL)
Illuminates if a fault has been detected
which may result in increased emissions
from the exhaust. In order to minimise
emissions and potential engine damage,
various operational limitations
automatically be applied.
- If continuously illuminated
driving, immediately reduce speed and
adopt a moderate driving style. Seek
Lotus dealer advice without delay and
avoid all unnecessary journeys.
