2 GT.1 - GENERAL DESCRIPTION The single piece, light alloy roadwheels are factory fitted with tyres engineered to provide the optimum balance of ride and handling characteristics. In order fully to exploit the dynamic qualities and packaging opportunities, the wheel and tyre sizes are different front and rear, so that interchanging of wheels and tyres between axles is not permissible. Note that the tyre tread pattern is asymmetric across the width, with the sidewalls marked 'side facing inwards' or 'side facing outwards', but the tyre may rotate in either direction. The tyres should be inspected frequently by the vehicle user, and also at every service, for signs of cuts, abrasions or other damage and for any uneven tread wear patterns. Uneven tread wear may indicate that the suspension geometry or dampers require attention. Care should be taken when parking to avoid tyre contact with high or sharp edged kerbs, as mistreatment of this nature can cause internal damage to the tyre structure which may not readily be apparent. The alloy wheel rims may also be distorted or damaged by careless parking, and result in wheel imbalance or loss of tyre pressure. Safety considerations should always be paramount when assessing tyre condition and serviceability, and the tyres replaced if any doubt exists, or if the legal tread depth limits are approached. The cold tyre pressures should be checked every week, or every 1,000 miles (1,700 km), whichever is the sooner and corrections made as necessary. Under inflation will cause excessive wear, rapid deterioration of the tyre sidewalls and heavy steering, whereas over-inflation results in a hard ride and increased susceptibility to tyre damage. Both conditions will cause a degradation in the vehicle handling qualities. It is important that the tyre pressures are adjusted only when the tyres are cold (driven less than one mile), as the pressures may increase by bar (4 8 lb/in²) when the tyres are warmed to normal running temperature. The tyre valve dust cap should always be replaced in order to prevent the ingress of dirt and moisture into the valve, which could cause leakage. When balancing the wheel and tyre assemblies, the wheels should be located by the centre spigot NOT by the wheel bolt holes. In order to maintain the correct handling feel and minimum steering wheel shake, it is very important that the radial and lateral run out of the tyres are to the high standard required by Lotus Cars. If any difficulty is experienced with replacement tyres, refer to the tyre manufacturer. The Michelin Pilot Supersport or Pilot Sport 4S tyres fitted to the Evora 400 are suitable for all normal weather conditions. The tyre characteristics include good feedback ( feel ) from the road surface to the steering wheel, a high level of steering linearity and response, and little performance degradation with the high temperatures which may be reached in sports use. However, tyre performance will decrease at low ambient temperatures, resulting in reduced levels of grip and an increased susceptibility to damage from impacts. In these conditions, especially below -7 C, it is recommended to fit a car set of the recommended winter tyres, see sub-section GT.6 for further information. Updated 21 st February 2018 Page 2

3 Lotus Service Notes GT.2 - TYRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM (TPMS) TPMS Instrument panel displays TPMS module TPMS transmitter Tyre valve A sensor incorporated into each of the tyre valves, monitors the air pressure inside the tyre and supplies an onboard control module located under the fascia panel with this data by radio transmission. Tyre pressure information is displayed in the instrument cluster left hand screen. A silhouette of the vehicle showing each wheel will display all four tyre pressures After the car has been driven a short distance. A warning will appear in the right hand display screen and the in the instrument panel will flash accompanied by an audible chime if one or more of the vehicles tyres is significantly under-inflated. The left hand display will default to the vehicle silhouette and indicate which tyre(s) require investigation. The tell tale will automatically extinguish when the correct pressure is restored. If the tyre emergency tyre inflator aerosol is used to carry out a temporary repair then being aware that the sensor in the tyre would be disabled by the sealing fluid and would subsequently require replacement. A constantly illuminated tell tale or -- being displayed instead of a tyre pressure reading indicates a malfunction has occurred within the monitoring system itself; with the tell tale flashing or lit, there may be no detection of a low tyre pressure. Note: There are different TPMS transmitter and Modules available for Japanese market vehicles, although the functionality is identical the operational frequency is 315MHz for vehicles imported into Japan as compared to 434MHz for all other markets.

4 The TPMS transmitter/valve assembly comprises of the following components: A. Transmitter to valve screw*. B. TPMS transmitter. B A C. Aluminium valve with a rim seal and either a short nickel or brass core mechanism*. C D. Aluminium nut incorporating a plastic washer*. E. Plastic valve cap*. * The assembly is supplied as two separate service level parts, the valve (item A & C - E) and the transmitter module (item B). E D Assembling the Transmitter/Valve Assembly 1. Remove the transmitter to valve screw, the aluminium nut and plastic valve cap (A, D & E) from the valve stem. 2. Fit the transmitter to valve screw into the back of the transmitter housing (B) ensuring the square neck of the screw is positively located into the corresponding square aperture in the housing. 3. Wind the valve stem (C) onto the protruding thread of the valve screw, the base of the valve should fit into the spherical base of the transmitter housing. (The valve should only be screwed in manually and only tightened sufficiently so that the valve can swivel within the housing using light hand pressure). If a tyre valve/sensor is renewed, or is moved to a different wheel position, the TPMS will automatically identify the new configuration by interpreting signal strength as distance from sensor to receiver. 2 3 Note that the pressure sensors are powered by integral batteries, with an average service life of 5 years. It is recommended to renew all pressure sensors at this time interval. TPMS fault codes On detection of a fault, the TPMS integrated diagnostics will set an appropriate code which may be read using the Lotus Techcentre: B2001 C0550 C0551 C0558 C075A C075B C075C C075D C0777 C0800 Supply voltage - Circuit voltage below threshold TPMS ECU RAM Failure / Has Malfunctioned TPMS Module not programmed with Vehicle Configuration TPMS Vehicle Sensor ID's not programmed TPMS Pressure Sensor LF Malfunction TPMS Pressure Sensor RF Malfunction TPMS Pressure Sensor LR Malfunction TPMS Pressure Sensor RR Malfunction TPMS Sensor Autolocation Failed TPMS Module Supply Voltage Below 9V Updated 2 nd March 2017 Page 4

TPMS Transmitter/Tyre Removal: 1. Remove the core from the valve If the tyre is still inflated or partially pressurised (if it has to be replaced then it must be a new short core of the same type 7442 ISO standard. fitment of brass material core is forbidden). 2. Before detaching the tyre from the rim, make sure that the transmitter is still correctly mounted and tightened on the wheel rim by checking that the valve nut is tight. 3. Using a suitable tyre changing machine, detach the inner and outer tyre sidewall beads in diametrically opposite positions to the transmitter/valve assembly. 4. Continue to detach the tyre sidewalls but do not use mechanical/pneumatic bead breaker within a zone of 20 on either side of the transmitter/valve assembly. 5. Before placing the tyre bead removal/fitment adaptor tool between the tyre and the wheel rim, make sure that both sidewalls of the tyre are completely detached from the wheel rim. 6. Ensure that the inner and outer sidewalls are completely detached from the wheel rim before clamping the tyre/wheel assembly onto the tyre changing tool. 7. Place the tyre changers removal/fitment adaptor tool 20 after the valve, (do not place any other tools or bars between the shoe and the valve, but only beyond the removal shoe). 8. Start removing the tyre from the wheel rim whilst maintaining the bead of the opposite sidewall on the bottom of the bead seat. 9. Continue the removal procedure moving the tyre away from the transmitter/valve assembly without changing the direction of rotation of the tyre changers removal/fitment adaptor tool until the outer sidewall is completely removed from the wheel rim. 10. Repeat this procedure for the inner tyre sidewall. 11. Unwind and remove the valve nut from the valve stem withdraw the assembly from the inner side of the wheel rim. Fitting a Transmitter/Valve Assembly 1. Before passing the valve stem through the wheel rim valve hole, ensure the base of the transmitter is facing towards the wheel rim with the small hole for pressure measurement facing upwards towards the tyre. Pressure measurement hole Updated 2 nd March 2017 Page 5

6 2. Position the transmitter/valve assembly into position ensuring the valve stem sealing ring is still partially inside the valve hole (in order to avoid it being pinched during tightening). Valve stem seal Light finger pressure 3. Refit the aluminium nut onto the valve stem, screwing in manually at this stage whilst applying finger pressure to the transmitter housing to ensure that it pressed against the valve hole and its base is touching the surface of the wheel rim. 4. Continue to tighten applying sufficient finger pressure to hold the transmitter housing against the wheel rim, once the plastic collar of the retaining nut touches the valve seat use a suitable hand operated torque wrench to finish tightening until a final torque of 4 Nm+/ mm socket and suitable torque wrench used to tighten nut to 4 Nm+/- 0.5 Aluminium nut Light finger pressure Ensure the two mounting feet of the transmitter are still contacting the wheel rim once the valve nut has been tightened. Tyre Fitment Preparation: Ensure that the transmitter/valve assembly has been correctly mounted and tightened before fitting the tyre onto the wheel rim as shown on the right hand illustrations. Care Points - Ensure that NO tyre lubrication products such as tyre soap etc partially or completely cover the pressure measuring hole or the inflation hole of the wheel unit. Plastic collar section of aluminium nut contacting wheel rim valve seat Transmitter housing feet contacting wheel rim - The tyre must not come into contact with the transmitter during fitment. - Ensure that the tyre does not get trapped between the wheel rim and the transmitter. When a new transmitter has been fitted, the TPMS tell tale warning light will be illuminated, the tyre pressure values within the left hand instrument panel display screen for the affected wheel will be displayed as -- and the warning symbol will be displayed in the right hand display screen because the new transmitter is not yet configured to the TPMS module. Refer to sub-section GT.8 for information on TPMS transmitter configuration Aluminium retaining nut torqued and contact valve seal Page 6

7 Fitting Care point: Do not fit the tyre changers removal/fitment tool between the tyre bead and transmitter/valve assembly. - With the wheel rim fitted on the tyre fitting tool, place the bead of the tire on the wheel rim approximately 20 beyond the valve, ensuring the direction of rotation of the tyre machine when operating is moving away from the valve. - Ensure not to put any pressure on the transmitter/valve assembly during this operation. - Ensure that the refitment/removal adaptor tool is withdrawn from the wheel rim before it approaches the transmitter/valve assembly. Tyre Inflation No constraint, either from the tyre or from the inflation system, should be transmitted to the transmitter unit during inflation. Valve Core Replacement If replacing the valve core ensure that only an electroless nickel plated core is fitted. Using a plain brass core may cause galvanic corrosion occurring between the core and the aluminium valve stem causing eventual loss of tyre pressure. Valve Cap Replacement Only plastic valve caps should be fitted to a TPMS tyre valve. The fitment of a metal cap may cause galvanic corrosion between the metal cap and the stem of the aluminium valve. The resulting damage caused to the valve whilst trying to remove the corroded cap could also cause a TPMS system failure. TPMS Module The module with a combined flylead is connected to the instrument fascia harness. It is located underneath the driver s side of the instrument fascia panel, mounted on the top face of the scuttle beam outboard of the pedal box, accessible only after removal of the fascia dash panel. TPMS Module Removal: 1. Remove the instrument fascia panel, refer to service notes section VG.10 for further information. 2. Detach the driver side demist duct from the side of the air distribution unit casing and demist duct connector mounting to gain easier access to the TPMS module. 3. Release the M6 nyloc nuts (2) securing the TPMS module casing to the scuttle beam mounting bracket. 4. The module can now be removed from the vehicle. Refitment: Is the reverse of removal except. RHD location If a new TPMS module has been fitted, the TPMS tell tale warning light will be illuminated, the tyre pressure values within the left hand instrument panel display screen will be displayed as -- and the warning symbol will be displayed in the right hand display screen because the new module is not yet configured to the vehicle or the 4 wheel sensors. LHD location Refer to sub-section GT.8 for information on TPMS module configuration. Updated 22 nd September 2016 Page 7

10 GT.4 - WHEEL BOLTS Standard wheelbolt Splined extension tool Coded wheelbolt Coded adaptor 17mm socket, extension & torque wrench ohs114d The wheel bolts used are of a special design to suit the small diameter fixing tunnels in the wheel centres. The bolts have an M12 x1.5 thread, 60 conical seat and a 10 spline socket head for which a special extension tool is supplied with the car. A 17 mm deep socket and 1/2 inch square drive torque wrench should be applied to the extension tool, with a tightening torque of 105 Nm required. To protect against wheel theft, one of the five bolts securing each wheel is key coded, and requires a correspondingly coded adaptor tool. Fit the adaptor tool onto a 1/2 inch square drive extension, and rotate the adaptor until full engagement into the bolt head is assured before applying torque. Note that an alignment mark is provided on the coded bolt head and adaptor tool to aid refitting. The spline drive extension and the coded adaptor tool are stowed in the vehicle tool pouch. Carepoint: Due to the small tolerance gap between the locking wheel bolt key and the bolt well there is a possibility that damage to the inside surface of the wheel bolt well could occur if care is not taken when using the key to loosen or tighten the locking wheel bolt. Locking wheel bolt fitment Initially screw the bolt in by hand using the key with the bolt at the 12 o clock position (vertically uppermost) in relation to the road wheel as this reduces the risk of the key coming into contact with larger recessed area of the wheel bolt well surface when tightening the wheel bolt in a clock-wise direction. Once hand-tightened use a suitable 17mm socket and torque wrench to tighten to 105 Nm. Note: Power/air tools MUST NOT be used for this operation as they can cause damage to both the key and locking bolt. Tighten with locking wheel bolt fitted vertically uppermost Wheel bolt well Locking wheel bolt removal This is the reverse procedure with the locking wheel bolt being positioned at the 6 o'clock position (vertically lowermost) in relation to the road wheel to reduce the risk of the key coming into contact with the larger recessed area of the wheel bolt well when it is being rotated in a counter-clockwise direction. Loosen with locking wheel bolt fitted vertically lowermost Page 10

13 GT.6 - WINTER TYRES & SNOW CHAINS If the car is to be used in very cold climates, or driven on snow covered roads, it is recommended to fit a complete vehicle set of winter tyres developed specifically for such conditions. For the Evora 400, Lotus recommends the use of Michelin Pilot Alpin winter tyres in sizes specified below. Wear indicators are moulded into the bottom of the tread grooves at intervals around the tyre, indicated by small pointers on the outer tread blocks. In order that these tyres maintain their design performance on snow covered roads, the minimum tread depth is designated as 4 mm, which is reflected in the height of a secondary set of wear indicators. Winter Tyres Type Michelin Pilot Alpin Size - front 225/35 R19-88W - rear 255/35 R20-97W Pressure (cold) - front 2.4 bar (35 lb/in²) - rear 2.6 bar (38 lb/in²) Tyre studding Tyre chains Not permitted Thule CG snow chains, fitted only on the rear and only on the approved winter tyres.

14 GT.7 - PUNCTURED TYRE EMERGENCY INFLATOR In order fully to exploit the benefits of light weight, and to maximise stowage space, the Evora has no provision for spare wheel carriage or lifting jack*. A temporary puncture sealing facility is provided in the form of an emergency tyre inflator aerosol mounted in a spring clip at the extreme right hand side of the boot. If possible, avoid driving on a deflated tyre, or irreparable damage to the tyre structure may be caused. TYRE EMERGENCY INFLATOR AEROSOL *Except for GCC market vehicles see next page. ohe42 When the aerosol is connected to the tyre valve, and the button pressed, a mixture of liquid latex and propellant is injected into the tyre, such that the solidifying latex is forced into the puncture site at the same time as the tyre is inflated, effecting a temporary repair and enabling the car to be driven at low speed to the nearest tyre depot. WARNING: - Use of the aerosol does not constitute a permanent repair, but is designed to allow the car to be driven to the nearest tyre depot. At the earliest opportunity, the tyre should be professionally repaired or replaced dependent on the severity of the damage. - Until the tyre is repaired or replaced, the car should be driven only in a moderate manner, not exceeding 30 mph (45 km/h). - Do not use the aerosol for large holes or repairs, or when the tyre sidewall has been damaged, or if the tyre has been displaced from the rim. - For safety reasons, the aerosol should be carried at all times in the designated stowage position. Never carry in the passenger compartment. As soon as a puncture is suspected, the car should be stopped at the first safe opportunity. Continued driving on a deflated tyre will cause irreparable damage to the tyre. Directions for use of the aerosol: Before using, carefully read all the instructions on the canister, or on any literature accompanying the product. The following instructions apply to the use of Holts Tyreweld: 1. Remove the object causing the puncture, and position the wheel with the puncture site lowermost. Deflate tyre fully. 2. Shake the can vigorously. In cold conditions, warm the can using the car's heater outlets, or by body warmth. 3. Screw the aerosol tube onto the tyre valve, remove the cap, hold the can upright and press the button until the tyre is firmly inflated. 4. Immediately drive for 6-12 miles (10-20 km) (or to the tyre depot if nearer) in a moderate manner and not exceeding 30 mph (45 km/h), to allow the sealant to spread. Then check and adjust the tyre pressure. 5. Have the tyre professionally repaired or replaced at the earliest opportunity, and until such time, limit speed to 30 mph (45 km/h) with a moderate driving manner. Note that some tyre repairers may make an additional charge for cleaning the sealant off the tyre before repair, and that any subsequent repairs may not be guaranteed. Be aware that the electronic pressure sensor mounted inside the tyre and integral with the tyre valve, could be obstructed by the sealant, and should be renewed. 6. Renew the emergency inflator aerosol. Page 14

15 Tyre Emergency Inflators, Spare Wheel & Trolley Jack for GCC Market Vehicles Two tyre emergency inflator systems have been supplied with GCC market vehicles. TYRE EMERGENCY INFLATORS Type 1: Type 2: Single use emergency sealer/aerosol inflator canister as per all other markets. Puncture repair kit containing electrically operated compressor, gauge and replaceable sealant canister (GCC markets only). Type 2 Puncture repair kit: Before using, carefully read all the instructions and literature included with the kit. Connect the compressor lead of the inflator pump to vehicles 12 volt DC auxiliary power socket. Type 1 Single use Type 2 Repair kit Have the tyre professionally repaired or replaced at the earliest opportunity and until such time, limit speed to 30 mph (45 km/h) with a moderate driving manner. Renew the emergency inflator aerosol at the earliest opportunity. Tyre Pressure Monitor System (TPMS) Note: If tyre replacement has required the use of the emergency inflator aerosol then the electronic pressure sensor mounted inside the wheel which is integral to the tyre valve could be obstructed by sealant and should be renewed to prevent inaccurate TPMS readings and warnings. Spare Wheel & Trolley Jack A spare wheel and trolley jack are supplied for GCC vehicles as standard equipment. IMPORTANT: The spare wheel/tyre assembly supplied is a different size and tread pattern as compared with those fitted to the vehicle and is set to match rear tyre inflation pressure. It is intended for temporary use only to enable the vehicle to be driven until the tyre is either professionally repaired or replaced dependent on the severity of the damage at the earliest opportunity. Spare Wheel/Tyre Tyre type Michelin Pilot Super Sport Tyre size 225/40 R19-93Y Wheel type 10-spoke forged Wheel size 8J x19 Wheel colour Red SPARE WHEEL FITMENT (Rear shown - front similar) Wheel bolt Hub boss The procedure for spare wheel fitment is identical to the normal road wheel but after fitment use the compressor/inflation gauge contained within the puncture repair kit supplied with the vehicle to adjust the spare wheel tyre pressure to 2.4 bar - 35lb/in² if fitting to replace a front wheel or 2.6 bar - 38 lb/in² if fitting to replace a rear wheel. Spare wheel ohe93 IMPORTANT: Adopt a cautious driving style with the spare wheel fitted. Do not exceed a speed of 80km/h. The vehicles handling and self steering behaviour will be affected by the spare wheel and the braking affect may be reduced resulting in higher braking distances required. The Electronic Stability Program system (ESP ) must be set to Tour mode whilst driving with the spare wheel is fitted. Selecting Sport, Race or ESP Off with the spare wheel may result in vehicle instability. Page 15

16 GT.8 - TPMS CONFIGURATION AFTER COMPONENT REMOVAL/REPLACEMENT Initially, after the fitment of a new TPMS module or wheel transmitter(s), the tell tale warning light will be illuminated, the tyre pressure values within the left hand instrument panel display screen will be displayed as -- and the warning symbol will be displayed in the right hand display screen because the new module or wheel transmitter(s) are not yet configured. Configuration Procedure After either TPMS module or wheel transmitter renewal: - The vehicle must be driven for a time period of between 4-10 minutes at road speeds between 15 to 44mph. - The vehicle does not have to be moving constantly during this process, but only continuous driving periods of 60 seconds or more within this speed range will allow the TPMS module or wheel transmitter(s) to be successfully configured. - The ignition cannot be turned off until configuration has been successfully completed. Turning off the ignition prior to this will result in the configuration procedure having to be repeated. - Once the TPMS module or wheel transmitter(s) are successfully configured, the actual tyre pressure(s) will be displayed in the left hand panel screen and both the warning symbol and tell tale light will extinguish.

18 From the FAULT CODES option, save the fault code and freeze frame information as per the instructions shown in Technical Service Bulletin TSB 2013/11. For this example, Fault Code 'C Lost communication with TPMS - Rear left wheel' has been generated. Save & print options From the VEHICLE INFORMATION option, check that all 4 wheel transmitter serial numbers are registered in the TPMS ECU. If all 4 serial numbers are registered, clear any stored fault codes using Lotus TechCentre, then swap the wheel/tyre assembly around onto the opposite side of the vehicle and drive the vehicle above 9 mph (15km/h) for over 5 minutes. Wheel Unit Sensor Identifier Front Left If the malfunction image in the instrument panel is now displayed on the opposite side of the vehicle, then this indicates that the wheel transmitter is at fault. If the malfunction image in the instrument panel is still displayed on the original side of the vehicle and the original fault code is still generated, then this indicates that the TPMS ECU is potentially at fault. If one or more wheel transmitter serial numbers is not registered then perform a TPMS Configuration Procedure, refer to sub-section GT.8 for further information.

If the malfunction image is still displayed and the tell tale still illuminated, then clear any stored fault codes using Lotus TechCentre, swap the affected wheel/tyre assembly around onto the opposite side of the vehicle and drive the vehicle above 9 mph (15km/h) for over 5 minutes. If the malfunction image in the instrument panel is now displayed on the opposite side of the vehicle and the Fault Code C1304 is replaced with C Lost communication with TPMS - Rear right wheel, then again, this indicates that the wheel transmitter is at fault. If the malfunction image in the instrument panel is still displayed on the original side of the vehicle and the original fault code is still generated then again, this indicates that the TPMS ECU is potentially at fault. Nominal Tyre Pressure In the event that the TPMS tyre pressure warning displays have overridden the left and right hand instrument panel screens and the TPMS tell tale is illuminated (even though the pressure values being displayed is correct for the vehicle), then all 4 nominal tyre threshold pressures should be checked to ensure that they are set to the correct pressure values.
