HEATING, VENTILATION & AIR CONDITIONING
The 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.
