2012 FORD MUSTANG change time

Performance gauge- performs the following functions:
•Real time mode – measures G
force/acceleration (Note:
Requires initial calibration) See
Setup information.
•1/4 mile data including reaction
time
•0-60 mph times
•60-0 mph distances
•Horsepower -Note:This reading
will vary from advertised engine horsepower. It includes losses
through the drivetrain and other factors such as fuel octane, wind,
weight, road grade, etc.
•Setup
This gauge is intended for off-road use only (racetracks or other
controlled courses or settings).
Real time mode:
The performance gauge calculates/displays acceleration and G-forces
while in real time mode. The customer is required to calibrate/initialize
the performance gauge to ensure proper acceleration measurements
while in real time mode (see Setup section). At vehicle start up, the
performance gauge defaults to real time mode. The gauge stays in real
time mode until the user selects one of the other five operating modes.
The gauge returns to real time mode after exiting the operating modes.
In real time mode, the gauge will display the driver’s choice of
acceleration/deceleration or lateral g-forces on an LED graph and display.
Acceleration forces will be displayed on the bar graph to the right of
center. Deceleration forces will be displayed on the bar graph to the left
of center.
•Press B to change the display to the lateral axis.
•See bar graph forward/lateral high/low under Setup to change the
range of g-forces capable of being displayed on the LED.
Peak Recall – While in any mode, the gauge will record the highest
g-force values for all four axes (accel, decel, left and right).
•Press C to view these values.
•Press A to move to the next value.
•Press B to clear the value.

The gauge will return to real time mode if no buttons are pressed for
four seconds. Peak g-forces are displayed as shown below.
•PAC - Peak Acceleration g Forces
•PdC - Peak Deceleration g Forces
•PLG - Peak Lateral Left g Forces
•PrG - Peak Lateral Right g Forces
1/4 mile mode:To enter 1/4 mile mode, do the following:
1. Press MODE until “9tr” is displayed.
2. Make sure the vehicle is at a complete stop at the beginning of your
course, then press ENTER to confirm.
3. The display will show “CAL” to indicate mode has been entered. Do
not move your vehicle while the gauge displays “CAL” or you will get
false readings.
4. Begin your 1/4 mile acceleration when the gauge lights the LED bar
graph and the display reads “Go”.
Note:If you have reaction time turned on in the Setup mode, the display
will change from “CAL” to “trEE” and the LED bar graph will change from
yellow to red. When the graph is fully lit, the display will change to “Go”.
During 1/4 mile mode operation, the gauge will calculate 1/4 mile time
(ET) and speed (mph), reaction time (if activated in the Setup mode), and
peak G’s. The 1/4 mile timer does not start until the vehicle starts
accelerating unless you have reaction time enabled. If reaction time is
enabled, the timer starts whenGois displayed. Accelerate through the
entire 1/4 mile distance in order for the gauge to provide you with results.
During 1/4 mile acceleration, the gauge will display an increasing number
which is your calculated speed in mph. When the 1/4 mile distance has
been reached, the gauge will display “Lrun” (last run) followed by “rt”
(reaction time) if enabled, “Et” (elapsed time), and “SPEd” (speed) at
the end of the 1/4 mile.
The gauge will display results once and then display “Lrun” and flash a
bar graph.
•To review your results again, press B. The gauge will display your
reaction time, elapsed time, 1/4 mile speed, and peak G’s.
•To save your results as your new best, press A to display SAVE, then
press B to confirm.
Note:Saving a run as your new best run will overwrite your previous
best run. The gauge will automatically save/overwrite your stored last
run each time you make a new pass.

this point, the gauge is taking a stationary reading. Do not move the
vehicle at this time or your calibration will be incorrect and you will need
to re-calibrate. Next, the gauge will light all LEDs on the radial bar graph
and display “GO”. Launch your vehicle in a manner using moderate,
steady acceleration with a goal of reaching 15 mph in three to four
seconds (with 3-1/2 seconds as your goal). Accelerate forward, shifting
smoothly if necessary. When finished with the calibration procedure, the
gauge will display “DONE” for three seconds and then return to Real
Time mode. Accelerating too aggressively or too passively in the vehicle
calibration mode will result in an in complete or inaccurate calibration. It
is very important while performing the acceleration part of the vehicle
calibration that the vehicle not bounce up and down or move side to
side. During this calibration process, DO NOT spin the tires, slide the
vehicle sideways, powershift, lug, jerk, bounce or turn the vehicle. Doing
so will cause an incorrect calibration, and you will need to repeat the
calibration process. To check your calibration, change your display to
Real Time Lateral mode (see Real Time mode). When you accelerate and
brake in a straight line you should see very minimal if any lateral G force
displayed. If you do, repeat the calibration process as outlined above. If
problem persists, contact Auto Meter tech support for further assistance.
Roll out:This function only affects the 1/4 mile function. Roll out is the
distance that your vehicle travels before the 1/4 mile timer (ET) starts.
With a roll out of zero, the gauge will give you a slower ET reading than
a drag strip timer, as the gauge will start the timer the instant the car
moves. A zero roll out will be the most accurate indication of how long it
takes your car to cover a standing 1/4 mile. Increasing your roll out
distance will decrease the ET readings that the gauge will display as you
are giving your vehicle a head start up to 18 inches before the timer
starts.
To select roll out:
1. Enter Setup mode, then press A until “UL65” is displayed.
2. Press B to confirm. The number displayed represents roll out distance
in inches, and may be adjusted from 0 to 18.
3. Press A to increase the value shown. Press C to decrease.
4. Press ENTER to confirm your setting when the desired roll out value
is displayed.

required, the axle assembly has been submerged in water, or when subjecting your car to
high-speed and/or competition use. The axle lubricant and friction modifier should be changed any
time the rear axle has been submerged in water. The axle lubricant and friction modifier should
also be changed after the initial (first) hour of high-speed operation or if the vehicle is subjected to
track or competition conditions; thereafter changing the axle lubricant and friction modifier every
12 hours (under these conditions).
