TOWING A TRAILER
WARNING: Your vehicle is
not approved for trailer towing.
Never tow a trailer with your
vehicle.
TRANSPORTING THE VEHICLE If you need to have your vehicle towed,
contact your roadside assistance center
or a professional towing service.
We recommend that your vehicle be towed
with flatbed equipment only. When towing
with a flatbed, race ramps or wood ramps
must be used when loading or unloading
your vehicle. Wheel baskets are required
when flatbed towing.
Your vehicle could come with a front
recovery hook to assist in vehicle recovery
situations.
See Towing Points (page 36).
Perform the following when towing your
vehicle:
• Enable manual park override.
See
Automatic Transmission (page 20).
Note: Do not use the Stay in Neutral Mode
for towing.
Note: Do not tow with a slingbelt or wheel
lift equipment.
Note: If the vehicle is towed incorrectly or
by any other means, vehicle damage may
occur.

2022 Mustang (CZG) Mach 1, enUSA, Edition date: 202110, First-Printing TowingE203788

Two mini J hooks should be used when the
vehicle is towed. The hooks should be
attached to the oblong holes in rails as
shown to winch the vehicle onto the
flatbed. Use tire slings only to tie the
vehicle down to the flatbed. Other
methods may damage the vehicle.
31
2022 Mustang (CZG) Mach 1, enUSA, Edition date: 202110, First-Printing TowingE201704

Preferred Flatbed Method
Seven degrees maximum.
A
Tow vehicle ramp.
B
Race ramps.
C
30 inches (76 centimeters) minimum.
D
70 inches (178 centimeters) minimum.
E
Use race ramps to load the vehicle.
The diagram illustrates the maximum
ramp angle allowable to load your vehicle
on a flatbed. Vehicle damage may occur
with greater angles. Ramps must be used to achieve
appropriate undercarriage clearances.
32
2022 Mustang (CZG) Mach 1, enUSA, Edition date: 202110, First-Printing TowingE342994

Alternate Flatbed Method
Tow vehicle ramp.
A
Wooden ramp.
B
Use 2 in (5 cm) by 8 in (20 cm) by 8 ft
(2.5 m) wooden ramps to load the vehicle.
The diagram illustrates the maximum
ramp angle allowable to load your vehicle
on a flatbed. Vehicle damage may occur
with greater angles.
Blocks must be used to achieve
appropriate undercarriage clearances.
Transporting or Trailering - Mach
1 Handling Package
(If Equipped)
Due to low ground clearance, your vehicle
is transported from the assembly plant to
the dealer with front suspension spacers
installed. These are removed by the dealer
prior to customer delivery and are provided
with the vehicle. If you plan to transport or
trailer your vehicle and need additional
clearance, the spacers may be reinstalled
for additional underbody clearance. Note:
Suspension spacers must be
removed before driving your vehicle. Failure
to remove the spacers may cause damage
to suspension components and degrade
vehicle performance.
Note: It is only possible for you to install or
remove the suspension spacers while the
vehicle is raised in the air. 33

Front Suspension
Insert the top of the spring spacer onto the
spring first, then snap the bottom of the
spacer into place.

BREAKING-IN
Your vehicle requires a break-in period. For
the first 1,000 mi (1,600 km), avoid driving
at high speeds, heavy braking, aggressive
shifting or using your vehicle to tow. During
this time, your vehicle may exhibit some
unusual driving characteristics.
Ground Clearance
Since ground clearance is reduced, use
caution when approaching curbs or curb
stops from the front and rear as vehicle
damage may occur. Additionally, when
crossing speed bumps or driveway curbs,
you should approach at a 45 degree angle
to reduce the risk of vehicle damage.
DRIVING THROUGH WATER
Your vehicle has aerodynamic devices
attached to the underbody designed to
help control airflow for superior
performance. Therefore, the driver must
be especially careful to avoid driving
through deep or standing water. If driving
through deep or standing water is
unavoidable, do not exceed 10 mph
(16 km/h). Never drive through water that
is higher than the bottom of the wheel
rims. Water may enter through the air
intake due to the vacuum generated in the
engine. Your vehicle warranty does not
cover damage caused by the intake of
water into the engine.

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
100 mph (160 km/h)
during the track run,
your display may not show your selected
interval's results.

Exhaust Mode
Gives the driver the ability to choose the
vehicle's exhaust mode.
Note: The Track Exhaust Mode setting is
only for use at tracks and not for use on
public roadways. Use of this setting results
in increased exterior noise, which may not
meet state and local laws and regulations.
It is the obligation of the driver to operate
the vehicle in a manner that complies with
state and local requirements. Only use the
Track Exhaust Mode setting at a
competition track or an off-road course
where elevated exterior vehicle noise is
acceptable. Lap Timer
Gives you the ability to record lap times at
three separate tracks.
Launch Control (If Equipped)
Maximizes your vehicle's traction from a
standing start.
Follow these steps to use launch control:
1. Bring your vehicle to a complete stop.
2. Make sure launch control is enabled. The indicator illuminates in the
information display when launch
control is enabled.
3. Fully press the clutch pedal.
4. Shift the transmission into 1st gear.
5. Fully depress the accelerator pedal and
allow the engine RPM to stabilize.
6. Release the clutch pedal.
Line Lock
Line lock is a feature intended for use at
tracks only and should not be used on
public roadways. Use of this feature may
result in significantly increased rear tire
wear. It is intended to condition the rear
tires to maximize traction prior to track use.
Line lock maintains brake force at the front
wheels, allowing the rear wheels to spin
with minimal vehicle movement.
This feature is located in the Track Apps
menu. Make selections through the 5-way
information display control and OK button
located on the steering wheel.
Using Line Lock
