FORD MUSTANG 2022 Warranty Guide

FUEL QUALITY
Choosing the Right Fuel
Your vehicle is designed to operate on
regular unleaded gasoline with a minimum
pump (R+M)/2 octane rating of 87.
Some fuel stations, particularly those in
high altitude areas, offer fuels posted as
regular unleaded gasoline with an octane
rating below 87. The use of these fuels
could result in engine damage that will not
be covered by the vehicle warranty.
For best overall vehicle and engine
performance, premium fuel with an octane
rating of 91 or higher is recommended.
Do not be concerned if the engine
sometimes knocks lightly. However, if the
engine knocks heavily while using fuel with
the recommended octane rating, contact
an authorized dealer to prevent any engine
damage.
We recommend Top Tier detergent
gasolines, where available to help minimize
engine deposits and maintain optimal
vehicle and engine performance. For
additional information, refer to
www.toptiergas.com.
Note:
Use of any fuel for which the vehicle
was not designed can impair the emission
control system, cause loss of vehicle
performance, and cause damage to the
engine which may not be covered by the
vehicle Warranty. Do not use:
•
Diesel fuel.
• Fuels containing kerosene or paraffin.
• Fuel containing more than 15% ethanol
or E85 fuel.
• Fuels containing methanol.
• Fuels containing metallic-based
additives, including manganese-based
compounds.
• Fuels containing the octane booster
additive, methylcyclopentadienyl
manganese tricarbonyl (MMT).
• Leaded fuel, using leaded fuel is
prohibited by law.
The use of fuels with metallic compounds
such as methylcyclopentadienyl
manganese tricarbonyl (commonly known
as MMT), which is a manganese-based
fuel additive, will impair engine
performance and affect the emission
control system.

MANUAL TRANSMISSION (IF
EQUIPPED)
Using the Clutch Manual transmission vehicles have a
starter interlock that prevents cranking the
engine unless the clutch pedal is fully
pressed.
To start the vehicle:
1.
Make sure the parking brake is fully set.
2. Press the clutch pedal to the floor, then
put the gearshift lever in the neutral
position.
3. Start the engine.
4. Press the brake pedal and move the gearshift lever to the desired gear, first
(1) or reverse (R).
5. Release the parking brake, then slowly
release the clutch pedal while slowly
pressing on the accelerator.
During each shift, the clutch pedal must
be fully pressed to the floor. Make sure the
floor mat is properly positioned so it does
not interfere with the full extension of the
clutch pedal.
Note: Failure to fully press the clutch pedal
to the floor may cause increased shift
efforts, prematurely wear the transmission
components or damage the transmission. Note:
Do not drive with your foot resting
on the clutch pedal or use the clutch pedal
to hold your vehicle at a standstill while
waiting on a hill. These actions will reduce
the life of the clutch and this may not be
covered by your warranty.
Note: The engine may not start unless the
intelligent access key is inside your vehicle.
Recommended Shift Speeds
Note: Do not downshift into first (1) when
your vehicle is moving faster than
15 mph
(24 km/h). This will damage the clutch. Upshifts When Accelerating - Recom-

DRIVE CONTROL
Selectable Drive Modes
Selectable drive modes deliver a
customized driving experience using a
variety of electronic vehicle systems. The
systems optimize vehicle dynamics and
powertrain response based on your
selected mode. Systems associated with
selectable drive modes are:
•
Electronically power assisted steering.
• Electronic stability control and traction
control maintain your vehicle control
in adverse conditions or high
performance driving.
• Electronic throttle control enhances
the powertrain response to your driving
input.
• Adaptive dampers, if your vehicle
comes with them.
• Active exhaust, if provided on your
vehicle, adjusts the sound
characteristics of your vehicle.
Using Selectable Drive Modes To change the drive mode setting, press
the mode button on the instrument panel
under the display. The first press
illuminates the selected mode, subsequent
presses change the selected mode. Note:
Mode changes are not available when
the ignition is off or when the transmission
is in reverse (R). Some modes may be
unavailable when the transmission is in drive
(D) or sport (S).
Note: Your vehicle may have some of the
drive modes that follow.
Modes:
• Normal – Best suited for everyday
driving. If your vehicle has adaptive
dampers, the suspension delivers a
balanced combination of comfort and
handling. Selectable steering defaults
to normal but you can change it using
the steering button.
• Sport – Engages when you shift your
automatic transmission into sport (S).
Sport mode increases throttle
response and helps your vehicle
accelerate faster, but does not change
the vehicle dynamics or stability
system. The automatic transmission
holds lower gears and a higher RPM
when lifting off the accelerator. The
automatic transmission downshifts to
a higher RPM when braking
aggressively.
• Sport+ – Best suited for spirited driving.
This mode increases throttle response,
and if your vehicle has active exhaust,
it takes on a more powerful tone. If your
vehicle has adaptive dampers, the
suspension becomes stiffer, body
motion reduces and the steering
becomes more precise. Selectable
steering defaults to sport. Depending
on your vehicle configuration, you may
be able to change the selectable
steering setting by pressing the steering
button. The automatic transmission
holds lower gears and a higher RPM
when lifting off the accelerator. The
automatic transmission downshifts to
a higher RPM when braking
aggressively.

•
Track – Provides a performance driving
experience. Throttle response
increases, and if your vehicle has active
exhaust, it takes on a more powerful
tone. This mode automatically utilizes
performance oriented traction control.
In this mode, traction control
intervention reduces and tunes
specifically for track usage only. We do
not intend for you to use this mode on
public roads. If your vehicle has
adaptive dampers, the suspension is
optimized for transient handling
maneuvers. This mode offers
maximum control and confidence in
handling on road courses or auto-cross
style events. Selectable steering
defaults to sport. Depending on your
vehicle configuration, you could change
the selectable steering setting by
pressing the steering button. The
automatic transmission holds lower
gears and a higher RPM and downshifts
more aggressively under braking than
in sport mode. •
Drag Strip - Provides a performance
driving experience tailored to driving
on a drag strip. The engine responds
directly to your inputs, and if your
vehicle has active exhaust, it takes on
a more powerful tone. We do not
intend for you to use this mode on
public roads. If your vehicle has
adaptive dampers, the setting
optimizes for straight line maximum
acceleration. Selectable steering
defaults to sport. Depending on your
vehicle configuration, you could change
the selectable steering setting by
pressing the steering button. The
automatic transmission calibrates to
shift very aggressively to provide a
performance kick when driven at
maximum throttle.
• Snow/Wet - Provides a confident
handling driving experience during poor
weather. If your vehicle has adaptive
dampers, the suspension delivers a
balanced combination of comfort and
handling. Selectable steering defaults
to normal. Depending on your vehicle
configuration, you could change the
selectable steering setting by pressing
the steering button.
Using MyMode (If Equipped) You can use MyMode to create a unique
drive mode.
