Automatic Disarming
Switching the ignition on with a coded key disarms the vehicle.
Replacement of Integrated Keyhead Transmitters and Coded Keys
Note:Your vehicle comes equipped with two integrated keyhead
transmitters.
The integrated keyhead transmitter functions as both a programmed
ignition key that operates all the locks and starts the vehicle, as well as a
remote keyless entry transmitter. A maximum of eight coded keys can be
programmed to your vehicle; only four of these eight keys can be
integrated keyhead transmitters with remote entry functionality.
If your integrated keyhead transmitters or standard SecuriLockcoded
keys are lost or stolen and you don’t have an extra coded key, you will
need to have your vehicle towed to an authorized dealer. The key codes
need to be erased from your vehicle and new coded keys will need to be
programmed.
Replacing coded keys can be very costly. Store an extra programmed key
away from the vehicle in a safe place to help prevent any inconveniences.
Please visit an authorized dealer to purchase additional spare or
replacement keys.
Programming a Spare Integrated Keyhead Transmitter
Note:A maximum of eight coded keys can be programmed to your
vehicle. Only four of these eight can be integrated keyhead transmitters.
You can program your own integrated keyhead transmitters or standard
SecuriLockcoded keys to your vehicle. This procedure will program
both the engine immobilizer key code and the remote entry portion of
the remote control to your vehicle.
Only use integrated keyhead transmitters or standard SecuriLockkeys.
You must have two previously programmed coded keys and the new
unprogrammed key readily accessible. See your authorized dealer to have
the spare key programmed if two previously programmed coded keys are
not available
Read and understand the entire procedure before you begin.
1. Insert the first previously programmed coded key into the ignition.
2. Turn the ignition from off to on. Keep the ignition on for at least three
seconds, but no more than 10 seconds.
3. Turn the ignition off and remove the first coded key from the ignition.

•5.0L V8 engine
“Regular” unleaded gasoline with a pump (R+M)/2 octane rating of 87 is
recommended. Some stations offer fuels posted as “Regular” with an octane
rating below 87, particularly in high altitude areas. Fuels with octane levels
below 87 are not recommended. Premium fuel will provide improved
performance and is recommended for severe duty usage such as trailer tow.
•For Shelby GT500 octane requirements, see the Shelby GT500
Supplement
•For Boss302 octane requirements. see the Boss302 Supplement
Do not be concerned if your engine sometimes knocks lightly. However, if
it knocks heavily while you are using fuel with the recommended octane
rating, see your authorized dealer to prevent any engine damage.
RUNNING OUT OF FUEL
Avoid running out of fuel because this situation may have an adverse
effect on powertrain components.
If you have run out of fuel:
•You may need to cycle the ignition from off to on several times after
refueling to allow the fuel system to pump the fuel from the tank to
the engine. On restarting, cranking time will take a few seconds longer
than normal. With keyless ignition, just start the engine. Crank time
will be longer than usual.
•Normally, adding 1 gallon (3.8L) of fuel is enough to restart the
engine. If the vehicle is out of fuel and on a steep grade, more than
1 gallon (3.8L) may be required.
•The service engine soon indicator may come on. For more information
on the service engine soon indicator, refer toWarning lamps and
indicatorsin theInstrument Clusterchapter.
Refilling with a Portable Fuel Container
WARNING:Do not insert the nozzle of portable fuel containers or
aftermarket funnels into the capless fuel system. This could damage
the fuel system and its seal, and may cause fuel to run onto the ground
instead of filling the tank, which could result in serious personal injury.
WARNING:Do not try to pry open or push open the capless fuel
system with foreign objects. This could damage the fuel system
and its seal and cause injury to you or others.

equipment installed in your vehicle should comply with FCC or CRTC
regulations and should be installed only by a qualified service
technician.
•Mobile communications systems may harm the operation of your

•To avoid interference with other vehicle functions, such as anti-lock
braking systems, amateur radio users who install radios and antennas
onto their vehicle should not locate the amateur radio antennas in the
area of the driver’s side hood.

components that are added to the vehicle by the authorized dealer or
the owner, may adversely affect battery performance and durability,
and may also adversely affect the performance of other electrical
