ENGINE COOLANT CHECK
Check the concentration and level of
engine coolant at the mileage intervals
listed in the scheduled maintenance
information.
Note: Make sure that the level is between
the MIN and MAX marks on the engine and
coolant reservoirs.
Note: Coolant expands when it is hot. The
level could extend beyond the
MAX mark.
If the level is at the MIN mark, add coolant
immediately. Maintain the coolant concentration within
48% to 50%, which equates to a freeze
point between -30°F (-34°C) and -34°F
(-37°C).
Note:
For best results, test coolant
concentration with a refractometer, such as
Rotunda tool 300-ROB75240, available
from your dealer. We do not recommend
the use of hydrometers or coolant test strips
for measuring coolant concentrations.
Be sure to read and understand
Precautions in your Owner ’s Manual. If you
do not check the coolant at the
recommended interval, the engine coolant
reservoir could become low or empty. If
the reservoir is low or empty, add coolant
to the reservoir.
Note: Automotive fluids are not
interchangeable. Do not use engine coolant,
antifreeze or windshield washer fluid outside
of its specified function and vehicle
location. For more information about engine
coolant, see the Maintenance chapter of the
Owner ’s Manual.
Adding Coolant WARNING:
Do not add engine
coolant when the engine is on or the
cooling system is hot. Failure to follow
this instruction could result in personal
injury. WARNING:
Do not put coolant in
the windshield washer reservoir. If
sprayed on the windshield, coolant could
make it difficult to see through the
windshield.
40
2022 Mustang (CZG) Mach 1, enUSA, Edition date: 202110, First-Printing Maintenance

WARNING: To reduce the risk of
personal injury, make sure the engine is
cool before unscrewing the coolant
pressure relief cap. The cooling system
is under pressure. Steam and hot liquid
can come out forcefully when you loosen
the cap slightly. WARNING:
Do not add coolant
further than the MAX mark.
Note: Do not use stop leak pellets, cooling
system sealants, or additives as they can
cause damage to the engine cooling or
heating systems. Your vehicle warranty
would not cover this damage.
• DO NOT MIX different colors or types
of coolant in your vehicle. Make sure
you use the correct coolant. Mixing of
engine coolants could harm your
engine ’s cooling system. The use of an
improper coolant could harm engine
and cooling system components and
could void the warranty.
• In case of emergency, you can add a
large amount of water without engine
coolant, in order to reach a vehicle
service location. In this instance, drain
the cooling system, chemically clean
the system with Motorcraft® Premium
Cooling System Flush, and refill with
prediluted coolant as soon as possible.
Water alone without engine coolant
can cause engine damage from
corrosion, overheating or freezing.
Note: Do not use alcohol, methanol or brine
or any engine coolants mixed with alcohol
or methanol antifreeze coolant. Alcohol and
other liquids can cause engine damage from
overheating or freezing.
Note: Do not add extra inhibitors or
additives to the coolant. These can be
harmful and compromise the corrosion
protection of the engine coolant. Unscrew the cap slowly. Any pressure
could escape as you unscrew the cap.
Add prediluted engine coolant meeting our
specification. See the Capacities and
Specifications chapter of the Owner's
Manual for more information. Whenever
you add coolant, check the coolant level
in the coolant reservoir the next few times
you drive the vehicle. If necessary, add
enough prediluted coolant to bring the
coolant level to the proper level.
Coolant Refill Procedure
Use the following procedure when refilling
the cooling system after it has been
drained or become extremely low.
1. Remove the pressure relief cap from
the coolant reservoir as previously
outlined.
2. Slowly add prediluted coolant to the coolant reservoir until the coolant level
is between the
MIN and MAX marks
on the reservoir.
3. Reinstall the pressure relief cap.
4. Start and idle the engine until the upper
radiator hose is warm, which indicates
the thermostat is open and coolant is
flowing through the entire system.
5. Shut the engine off and let it cool.
6. Remove the pressure relief cap from the coolant reservoir as previously
outlined.
7. Add prediluted coolant to the coolant reservoir until the coolant level is
between the
MIN and MAX marks on
the reservoir.
8. Reinstall the pressure relief cap.
9. Check the coolant level in the reservoir
before you drive your vehicle the next
few times with the engine cool.
41
2022 Mustang (CZG) Mach 1, enUSA, Edition date: 202110, First-Printing Maintenance

10. If necessary, add prediluted coolant
to the coolant reservoir until the
coolant level is between the MIN and
MAX marks on the reservoir.
Whenever you add coolant, check the
coolant level in the coolant reservoir the
next few times you drive the vehicle. If
necessary, add prediluted coolant to bring
the coolant level to the proper level.
If you have to add more than
1 qt (1 L) of
coolant per month, have your dealer check
the cooling system. Your cooling system
could have a leak. Operating an engine
with a low level of coolant can result in
engine overheating and engine damage.

Operating at High Speeds and
Track Days
Your vehicle is capable of sustained high
speeds and track day driving.
Before operating your vehicle at high
speeds:
•
Verify your tires have the correct
pressures.
• Inspect wheels and tires for wear and
damage. Replace any damaged wheels
and tires.
• Check and set lug nut torque. See
Wheels (page 52).
• Verify fluid levels for oil, coolant, brake
and hydraulic fluid. See
Capacities
and Specifications (page 56).
• Change the engine oil and replace the
engine oil filter prior to use on the track.
Change the engine oil and filter again
after every four hours of track time.
Maintain the engine oil level at or near
the max mark on the engine oil dipstick.
See
Engine Oil Check (page 38).
• Replace the brake fluid with fresh
Motorcraft/Ford DOT 4 LV High
Performance Brake Fluid or other DOT
compliant fluid with a dry boiling point
greater than
500°F (260°C) from a
sealed container. Do not use silicone
or DOT 5 brake fluids.
• If you are operating your Mach 1 on a
drag strip, use drag strip selectable
drive mode in addition to using line lock
and launch control to provide a specific
set-up tuned for the quickest straight
line elapsed times.
• If you are operating your Mach 1 on a
road course, use sport or track
selectable drive modes to provide a
specific set-up tuned for optimal shift
and suspension set-up that is tuned
towards handling prowess on closed
course surfaces. After operating your vehicle at high speeds
or track day driving, do the following:
•
Set the tire pressure to the proper
specification.
• Check and set the lug nut torque. See
Wheels
(page 52).
• Check all fluid levels.
• Refer to the track maintenance interval
chart. See
Normal Scheduled
Maintenance (page 70).
• Check the front and rear wheel
bearings for abnormal wear.
• Inspect brake caliper dust boots for
abnormal wear.
Track Apps WARNING:
Track Apps™
is for
track use only. Remember that even
advanced technology cannot defy the
laws of physics. It is always possible to
lose control of a vehicle due to
inappropriate driver input for the
conditions. Aggressive driving on any
road condition can cause you to lose
control of your vehicle increasing the risk
of personal injury or property damage.
This information display driven feature
provides a suite of menu options to record
and optimize your track performances.
See
General Information (page 13).
Note: Track Apps are for track use only. Do
not use them under any other driving
conditions.
Note: You cannot view or clear your results
unless your vehicle is at a complete stop
with the right arrow on the display menu
inactive. If your vehicle does not reach

2022 Mustang (CZG) Mach 1, enUSA, Edition date: 202110, First-Printing Track Use

•
Under normal operating conditions, a
message appears in the information
display to indicate the regular oil
change interval.
• Under severe operating conditions, the
oil change interval may reduce, and the
message interval may adjust.
High performance vehicles can be driven
in such a way that may lead to higher oil
consumption (this includes extended time
at high engine speeds, high loads, engine
braking, hard cornering maneuvers, and
track use). Under these conditions, oil
consumption of approximately 1 quart per
500 miles (1 liter per 800 km) is possible.
As a result, the engine oil level needs to be
checked at every refueling and adjusted to
maintain proper level to avoid engine
damage.
Note: Oil level should not exceed the
maximum mark on the indicator. See
Engine Oil Check (page 38).
When the oil change message appears in
the information display, it is time for an oil
change. Make sure you perform the oil
change within two weeks or
500 mi
(800 km) of the message appearing. Make
sure you reset the Intelligent Oil-Life
Monitor after each oil change.
If your information display resets
prematurely or becomes inoperative, you
should perform the oil change interval at
six months or
5,000 mi (8,000 km) from
your last oil change. Never exceed one year
or
10,000 mi (16,000 km) between oil
change intervals.
Your vehicle is very sophisticated and built
with multiple, complex, performance
systems. Every manufacturer develops
these systems using different
specifications and performance features.
That is why it is important to rely upon your
dealership to properly diagnose and repair
your vehicle. Ford Motor Company has recommended
maintenance intervals for various parts
and component systems based upon
engineering testing. Ford Motor Company
relies upon this testing to determine the
most appropriate mileage for replacement
of oils and fluids to protect your vehicle at
the lowest overall cost to you and
recommends against maintenance
schedules that deviate from the scheduled
maintenance information.
We strongly recommend the use of only
genuine Ford, Motorcraft or
Ford-authorized re-manufactured
replacement parts engineered for your
vehicle.
Additives and Chemicals
This owner's manual and the Ford
Workshop Manual list the recommended
additives and chemicals for your vehicle.
We do not recommend using chemicals or
additives not approved by us as part of
your vehicle
’s normal maintenance. Please
consult your warranty information.
Oils, Fluids and Flushing
In many cases, fluid discoloration is a
normal operating characteristic and, by
itself, does not necessarily indicate a
concern or that the fluid needs to be
changed. However, a qualified expert, such
as the factory-trained technicians at your
dealership, should inspect discolored fluids
that also show signs of overheating or
foreign material contamination
immediately.
68
2022 Mustang (CZG) Mach 1, enUSA, Edition date: 202110, First-Printing Scheduled Maintenance

Make sure to change your vehicle
’s oils and
fluids at the specified intervals or in
conjunction with a repair. Flushing is a
viable way to change fluid for many vehicle
sub-systems during scheduled
maintenance. It is critical that systems are
flushed only with new fluid that is the same
as that required to fill and operate the system or using a Ford-approved flushing
chemical.
Owner Checks and Services
Make sure you perform the following basic
maintenance checks and inspections every
month or at six-month intervals.Check every month
Engine oil level.
For severe use, high engine speed and engine loads, engine braking and track use, check engine oil level every fuel fill-up.
