An elevator includes an elevator motor, a motor drive for the elevator motor having a frequency converter including a rectifier bridge, an inverter bridge and a DC link in between, which frequency converter is controlled via a controller, the rectifier bridge being connected to AC mains via three feed lines including chokes, and the rectifier bridge being realised via controllable semiconductor switches, an isolation relay being located between the feed lines and AC mains, a backup power supply at least for emergency drive operation, an emergency control for performing an automatic emergency drive, the backup power supply is via a first switch connectable with only a first of the feed lines. A second and/or third of the feed lines is via a second switch connectable as power supply to a car door arrangement, the first switch as well as the second switch are controlled by the emergency control, and the emergency control is connected to a manual drive circuit having a manual drive switch for a manual rescue drive. The elevator includes a first feedback circuit configured to provide to the emergency control first information indicating the switching state of the isolation relay, a second feedback circuit which is configured to provide to the emergency control second information indicating switching state of the first switch. The emergency control is configured to selectively allow or prevent the emergency drive operation on the basis of the first information and the second information.
