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.

8 TRACTION CONTROL™ (IF EQUIPPED)This system helps you maintain the stability and steerability of your vehicle on slippery road surfaces such as snow, ice or gravel. The system works closely with many of the elements already present in the Anti-Lock Braking System. The system defaults to ON. However, should you become stuck, try switching the Traction Control™ off.

below 30 mph. To set a desired speed, press and hold the SET+ button until you reach that speed. Then take your foot off the accelerator pedal. You can increase speed using speed control by pressing and holding the SET+ button until you reach the desired speed or you can press and release the SET+ button and increase speed by 1 mph with each tap. You can decrease speed the same way using the SET- button. Pressing the RES (resume) button will automatically return the vehicle to the previously set speed. The RES button will not work if the vehicle speed is below 30 mph. To disengage the speed control, press the OFF button or press the brake or clutch pedal (manual transmission only).
10 WINDSHIELD WIPER / WASHERThe windshield wiper/washer lever controls the windshield wiper modes, speeds and the windshield washer. For intermittent operation, move the control up one position then rotate the rotary control to the speed you want. For normal or low speed wiper operation, move the control up two positions from OFF. For high-speed operation, move the control up three positions from OFF. For windshield washer control, pull the end of the stalk toward you. A quick pull and hold, and the wipers will swipe three times with washer fluid. A long pull and hold, and the wipers and washer fluid will be activated for up to ten seconds.
