2013 FORD MUSTANG engine

Loss of air pressure may adversely affect tire performance. For this reason:
•Note:Do not drive the vehicle above 50 mph (80 km/h).
•Note:Do not drive further than 120 miles (200 km). Drive only to the
closest Ford Motor Company authorized dealer or tire repair shop to
have your tire inspected.
•Drive carefully and avoid abrupt steering maneuvers.
•Periodically monitor tire inflation pressure in the affected tire; if the
tire is losing pressure, have the vehicle towed.
•Read the information in theTips for use of the temporary mobility
kitsection to ensure safe operation of the temporary mobility kit and
your vehicle.
Tips for Use of the Temporary Mobility Kit
Read the following list of tips to ensure safe operation of the temporary
mobility kit:
•
Before operating the temporary mobility kit, make sure your vehicle is
safely off the road and away from moving traffic. Turn on the hazard lights.
•Always set the parking brake to ensure the vehicle doesn’t move
unexpectedly.
•
Do not remove any foreign objects, such as nails or screws, from the tire.
•When using the temporary mobility kit, leave the engine running (only
if the vehicle is outdoors or in a well-ventilated area) so the
compressor doesn’t drain the vehicle’s battery.
•Do not allow the compressor to operate continuously for more than
15 minutes; this will help prevent the compressor from overheating.
•
Never leave the temporary mobility kit unattended when it is operating.
•Sealant compound contains latex. Make sure that you use the
non-latex gloves provided to avoid an allergic reaction.
•Keep the temporary mobility kit away from children.
•Only use the temporary mobility kit when the ambient temperature is
between -22°F (–30°C) and 158°F (70°C).
•Only use the sealing compound before the use by date. The use by
date is on the lower right hand corner of the label located on the
sealant canister (bottle).Note:Check the use by date regularly and
replace the canister after four years.
•Do not store the temporary mobility kit unsecured inside the
passenger compartment of the vehicle as it may cause injury during a
sudden stop or collision. Always store the kit in its original location.

•After sealant use, the TPMS sensor and valve stem on the wheel must
be replaced by an authorized Ford dealer.
•
When inflating a tire or other objects, use the black air hose only. Do not
use the transparent hose which is designed for sealant application only.
•Operating the temporary mobility kit could cause an electrical
disturbance in radio, CD, and DVD player operation (if equipped). .
What to do when a Tire Is Punctured
A tire puncture within the tire’s tread area can be repaired in two stages
with the temporary mobility kit:
•In the first stage, the tire will be reinflated with a sealing compound
and air. After the tire has been reinflated, you will need to drive the
vehicle a short distance (approximately 4 miles [6 km]) to distribute
the sealant in the tire.
•In the second stage, you will need to check the tire pressure and
adjust, if necessary, to the vehicle’s tire inflation pressure.
First Stage: Reinflating the Tire with Sealing Compound and Air
WARNING:Do not stand directly over the temporary mobility kit
while inflating the tire. If you notice any unusual bulges or
deformations in the tire’s sidewall during inflation, stop and call
roadside assistance.
WARNING:If the tire doesn’t inflate to the recommended tire
pressure within 15 minutes, stop and call roadside assistance.
Preparation
Park the vehicle in a safe, level and secure area, away from moving
traffic. Turn the hazard lights on. Apply the parking brake and turn the
engine off. Inspect the flat tire for visible damage.
Sealant compound contains latex. To avoid any allergic reactions, use the
non-latex gloves located in the accessory box on the underside of the
temporary mobility kit housing.
Do not remove any foreign object that has pierced the tire. If a puncture
is located in the tire sidewall, stop and call roadside assistance.
1. Remove the valve cap from the tire valve.
2. Unwrap the clear tube from the compressor housing.

3. Remove the tube cap and fasten the metal connector of the tube to the
tire valve, turning clockwise. Make sure the connection is tightly fastened.
4. Plug the power cable into the
12-volt power point in the vehicle.
5. Remove the warning sticker found on the canister and place it on the
top of the instrument panel or the center of the dash.
6.Note:Start the engine only if the vehicle is outdoors or in a
well-ventilated area.
7. Turn dial (A) counterclockwise to
the sealant position. Turn on the kit
by pressing the on button (B).
8. Inflate the tire to the pressure
listed on the tire label located on
the driver’s door or the door jamb
area.
Note:When the sealing compound is first added into the tire, the air
pressure gauge reading on the compressor unit may indicate a higher
value; this is normal and should be no reason for concern. The pressure

Ford design rear axles contain a synthetic lubricant that does not require changing unless the axle has
been submerged in water.2Automatic transmissions that require MERCONLV should only use MERCONLV fluid. Refer to
scheduled maintenance informationto determine the correct service interval. Use of any fluid other
than the recommended fluid may cause transmission damage.3Add the coolant type originally equipped in your vehicle.4Approximate dry capacity, including cooler and tubes. Fluid level should be checked by an authorized
dealer.5Service refill capacity is covered underChecking and adding manual transmission fluidin this
chapter.6Use of synthetic or synthetic blend motor oil is not mandatory. Engine oil need only meet the
requirements of Ford specification WSS-M2C945-A and display the API Certification Mark.
Your engine has been designed to be used with Ford engine oil, which gives a fuel economy benefit
while maintaining the durability of your engine.
Using oils other than the one specified can result in longer engine cranking periods, reduced engine
performance, reduced fuel economy and increased emission levels.
