With this system, you simply open the fuel filler door, insert
the nozzle and begin fueling. It is self sealing and
therefore protected against dust, dirt, water, snow and ice. To use a portable fuel container, slowly insert the fuel funnel (located with the tire changing tools or the temporary mobility
kit), and pour the fuel into the funnel. When done, clean the funnel or properly dispose of it. Extra funnels can be purchased from
your authorized dealer. Do not use aftermarket
funnels as they will not work with the Easy Fuel™ system and may cause damage. With the Easy Fuel
TM
system, wait five seconds from the time the refueling nozzle is shut-off until the nozzle is pulled back out of the fill pipe to allow residual fuel in the nozzle to drain into the tank.

F U eL I n Fo
Your fuel tank capacity is 16.0 gallons
(60.6L). Your vehicle is designed to use “Regular” unleaded gasoline with an
octane rating of 87. Do not use E85 fuels
because your vehicle was not designed to run on fuels with more than 10% ethanol.
Lo Cat Ion o F Spare tIre
and too LS
Your vehicle is either equipped with a temporary
spare tire or a temporary mobility kit , both of which are
located in the trunk. The kit contains an air compressor to re-inflate the tire and a sealing compound that will
seal most punctures caused by nails or similar objects. Do not attempt to repair large punctures or damage
to the tire’s sidewall. The mobility kit provides a
temporary seal allowing you to drive up to 120
miles at a maximum speed of 50 mph. After sealant use, the TPMS sensor and valve
stem on the wheel must be replaced by an authorized Ford dealer. Note: The
sealant in the canister is to be used for
one tire only. See your authorized dealer for replacement canisters. For complete information refer to your Owner’s Guide.
roadSIde aSSIS tanCeYour new Ford Mustang comes with the
assurance and support of 24-hour emergency
roadside assistance. Roadside assistance includes such services as: lockout assistance, limited fuel delivery, battery jump starts, changing a flat tire, towing, and winch out. To receive roadside assistance in the United
States, call 1 (800) 241-3673. In
Canada, call 1 (800) 665-2006.
tIre pre SSUreCheck your tire pressure at least once a month
and before long trips (including spare, if equipped).
The recommended specifications are on the Safety
Compliance Certification Label or Tire Label located
on the B-Pillar or the edge of the driver’s door. As
an added safety feature, your vehicle has been equipped with a Tire Pressure Monitoring
System (TPMS) that illuminates when
one or more of your tires are significantly under-inflated. If the low tire pressure warning light
remains on at start up
or while driving, stop and check your tires
as soon as possible and ensure that they
are inflated to the proper pressure. If the
light flashes for approximately one minute
and then remains on, a malfunction has
been detected in the TPMS system. Contact your
authorized dealer as soon as possible for service. For
more information on TPMS, refer to Tire Pressure
Monitoring System (TPMS) in the Tires, Wheels
and Loading chapter in your Owner’s Guide.
