ALTERNATE CALIBRATION
Your Shelby GT500 power train control module (PCM) strategy contains
a feature to limit supercharger boost pressure and engine speed to
4000 rpm for the first five consecutive miles of vehicle operation or 50
engine start/warm up cycles. This feature is enabled prior to shipment. If
neither of these conditions have been satisfied prior to customer
delivery, full power will not be available.
MANUAL 6 SPEED TRANSMISSION OPERATION
Using the clutch
The manual transmission has a starter interlock that prevents cranking
the engine unless the clutch pedal is fully depressed.
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, then press the brake pedal and release the parking
brake.
4. Move the gearshift lever to 1st gear, then slowly release the clutch
pedal while slowly pressing on the accelerator.
During each shift, the clutch pedal must be fully depressed to the floor.
Failure to fully depress the clutch pedal to the floor may cause increased
shift efforts, prematurely wear transmission components, or cause gear
clash or damage to the transmission. Make sure the floor mat is properly
positioned so it doesn’t interfere with the full extension of the clutch
pedal.

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.
Your vehicle is equipped with a twin disc clutch. Due to the high
performance of the powertrain, a certain amount of noise from the
transmission is normal.
ADVANCETRACSTABILITY ENHANCEMENT SYSTEM
AdvanceTrac
Sport Mode
The AdvanceTrac
system provides an available Sport Mode specially
calibrated for the GT500’s unique performance characteristics. This can
be selected utilizing the AdvanceTrac off control switch. See theDriving
section of the owner’s guide for more information.
Sport mode is not intended for use on public roadways as this mode
provides less AdvanceTrac
system intervention than when the default
ESC and Traction Control systems are on. Sport mode will allow more
spirited driving while the AdvanceTrac
system is still enabled.
DRIVING YOUR SHELBY GT500 THROUGH WATER
The Ford Shelby GT500 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, proceed very slowly. 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. Damage caused by
the intake of water in the engine is not covered by the warranty.
