ESSENTIAL INFORMATION
FUSESIf your electrical components aren’t working properly, a fuse may have blown. For more detailed information, please refer to your Owner’s Guide.
FUEL PUMP SHUT-OFF SWITCHThis device stops the electric fuel pump from sending fuel to the engine when your vehicle has had a substantial jolt. After an accident, if the engine cranks but does not start, this switch may have been activated. The fuel pump shut-off switch is located in the driver’s footwell, by the hood release.
CHANGING THE TIRESYour vehicle is equipped with a temporary spare tire, which is smaller than a regular tire and designed for emergency use only. The jack, spare tire, jack handle and the lug nut wrench are located in the wheel well underneath the trunk floor.
TIRE PRESSURESafe operation of your Mustang requires your tires be properly inflated. The Ford recommended inflation pressure is found on the tire label or the certification label on the driver’s door. At least once a month and
before long trips, inspect each tire and check the air pressure with a tire gauge. Don’t forget the spare. Air pressure should be checked when the tires are cold. Inflate all tires to the inflation pressure recommended by Ford Motor Company.
FUEL TANK CAPACITYYour tank holds 16 gallons of fuel. For optimum performance use “Regular” unleaded fuel with a pump (R+M)/2 octane rating of at least 87.
ROADSIDE ASSISTANCEIn addition to your New Vehicle Limited Warranty, Ford provides new vehicle owners with a complimentary roadside assistance program. This service is available 24 hours, seven days a week for three years or 36,000 miles. It covers changing a flat tire, jump starts, limited fuel delivery, lockout assistance and towing of your vehicle.
