Engine Bay Ventilation - Lotus ELISE 2007 Owner's Handbook Manual

DEMIST
Demist:
As the control is turned clockwise from the footwell symbol
to the windscreen symbol, more airflow is directed to the wind-
screen vents. Select a warm temperature setting and a suitable
fan speed.
Full Defrost Performance
For maximum defrost performance, turn the distribution
knob fully clockwise and select maximum temperature and fan
speed.For optimum demisting in ambient temperatures above
38°F (+3°C), switching on the a.c. will help de-humidify the air
directed to the screen.
Ventilation Shut-Off
To close off the ventilation, which you may want to do in heavy
traffic to reduce fumes coming into the car, select re-circulation,
turn off the fan, turn the distribution control fully counterclockwise
to the face level vent position, and manually shut off each of the
face level vents.

Engine Bay Ventilation

The engine bay is ventilated via intake ducts in the body sides
and engine undertray, with outlet grilles provided in the engine
cover and rear valance. A roof scoop on Exige S models directs
airflow to an intake chargecooler radiator.
