SVT HISTORY
The Ford Special Vehicle Team (SVT) was established in 1991 to Polish the
Ford Oval by creating low-volume, factory-produced vehicles designed for
those select few whose idea of driving is a high-powered, passionate
experience – not just a means of getting from point A to point B.
In a move to support this spirited enthusiasm, Ford Motor Company
carefully integrated the wide array of talent in the company into a small,
cross-functional group of engineers and product planners, housed
together under one roof with a common mission: to create vehicles
specifically designed to meet the unique needs and desires of the
knowledgeable driving enthusiast.
Each of nearly 150000 SVT vehicles produced since the 1993 model year
has been designed and developed with the four SVT Hallmarks in mind:
Performance, Substance, Exclusivity and Value. These hallmarks have
driven the SVT Mustang Cobra and the Cobra R, the SVT F-150
Lightning, the SVT Contour, the SVT Focus, Ford GT, Shelby GT500,
GT500KR and the F-150 SVT Raptor.
We are proud and passionate about what we do, and we’re glad you have
made us your choice.

BREAKING-IN YOUR VEHICLE
Your vehicle requires a break-in period. Drive your new vehicle at least
100 miles (160 km) before performing extended wide open throttle
maneuvers and at least 1,000 miles (1,600 km) before performance/
competition conditions. Vary your speed frequently in order to give the
moving parts a chance to break in.
Alternate calibration
Your Shelby GT500 power train control module (PCM) strategy contains
a feature to limit supercharger boost pressure and engine speed to
4,000 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 pressed.
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.

SHELBY GT500 INSTRUMENT CLUSTER
Performance Shift Indicator
When activated, the programmable shift indicator provides a visual
(SHIFTLAMP) and may include an audible (SHIFTTONE) cue to shift to
the next highest gear at an engine rpm specified by the driver.
The SHIFTLAMP feature uses the SVT logo on the tachometer to notify
you when the desired shiftpoint is reached. The SVT symbol is backlit in
red under normal driving conditions (SHIFTLAMP OFF). When the
SHIFTLAMP is set to ON, the red backlighting is turned off and the SVT
logo will turn bright orange when the desired shift point is reached.
The SHIFTTONE feature uses an audible tone to notify you when the
desired shiftpoint is reached.
SHIFTLAMP and SHIFTTONE can be used separately, together, or
turned off completely.
The SHIFTPOINT can be adjusted from 1500-7000 rpm in the
Settings/Vehicle menu. See theInformation Displayschapter in your
Owner’s Manualfor more information.
Unique Instrument Cluster Lighting
For instructions on how to set the instrument cluster display color or
MyColor®, refer to theInformation Displayschapter in theOwner’s
Manual.
