2017 FORD MUSTANG automatic transmission

•
Electronically power-assisted steering
adjusts steering effort and feel based
on your selected mode.
• Electronic stability control and traction
control maintain your vehicle control
in adverse conditions or high
performance driving. See Stability
Control (page 145).
• Electronic throttle control enhances
the powertrain response to your inputs.
Using Selectable Drive Modes
Selectable drive modes automatically
tailors your vehicle configuration for each
mode selected. To change the drive mode
setting, toggle the mode button
or switch on the instrument
panel under the display. The first press of
the mode button or switch illuminates the
selected mode, subsequent presses will
change the selected mode.
Note: Mode changes are not available when
the vehicle ignition is off or reverse (R) gear
is selected. In gear position drive (D), the
available modes are Normal, Sport+, Track
and Snow/Wet. In gear position sport (S)
Snow/Wet and Normal mode are
unavailable.
Modes:
• Normal – Delivers a balanced
combination of comfort and handling.
This mode provides an engaging drive
experience and a direct connection to
the road without sacrificing any of the
composure demanded from your
vehicle.
• Sport – Engages when you shift your
automatic transmission into sport (S).
Sport mode increases throttle
response and helps your vehicle
accelerate faster, but does not change
the feel of the steering or stability
system. •
Sport+ – Provides a sportier steering
feel and throttle response. Sport+
mode is ideal for use during more
spirited driving.
• Track – Provides a performance driving
experience. The engine responds
directly to your inputs and takes on a
more powerful tone. Track mode is for
use when pure performance is desired.
A performance oriented traction
control mode is automatically utilized
when Track drive mode is selected. In
this mode, traction control intervention
is reduced and tuned specifically for
track usage only and is not intended
for public roads. See
Using Stability
Control (page 146).
• Snow/Wet - Provides a confident
handling driving experience during poor
weather. This mode provides a
confident drive experience and a direct
connection to the road without
sacrificing any of the composure
demanded from your vehicle.
Note: Selectable driving modes has
diagnostic checks that continuously monitor
the system to ensure proper operation.
Certain selectable drive modes will not be
available based on gear shifter position (for
example, Snow/Wet is not available while
in sport (S) position). If a selected mode is
unavailable due to a system fault or change
in gear shifter position, the selected mode
will default to Normal.
Note: Collision warning with brake support
is automatically disabled when Track mode
is selected.
Selectable Steering
Note: The steering setting defaults to
Normal if the battery is disconnected or
removed.

When Towing a Trailer
•
Do not drive faster than 70 mph (113
km/h) during the first 500 miles (800
kilometers).
• Do not make full-throttle starts.
• Check your hitch, electrical connections
and trailer wheel lug nuts thoroughly
after you have traveled 50 miles (80
kilometers).
• When stopped in congested or heavy
traffic during hot weather, place the
gearshift in park (P) (automatic
transmission) or neutral (manual
transmission) to aid engine and
transmission cooling and to help air
conditioning performance.
• Switch off the speed control with
heavy loads or in hilly terrain. The
speed control may turn off
automatically when you are towing on
long, steep grades.
• Shift to a lower gear when driving down
a long or steep hill. Do not apply the
brakes continuously, as they may
overheat and become less effective.
• If your transmission is equipped with a
Grade Assist or Tow/Haul feature, use
this feature when towing. This provides
engine braking and helps eliminate
excessive transmission shifting for
optimum fuel economy and
transmission cooling.
• Allow more distance for stopping with
a trailer attached. Anticipate stops and
brake gradually.
• Avoid parking on a grade. However, if
you must park on a grade:
1. Turn the steering wheel to point your vehicle tires away from traffic flow.
2. Set your vehicle parking brake.
3. Place the automatic transmission in park (P) or manual transmission in a
low gear. 4. Place wheel chocks in front and back
of the trailer wheels. (Chocks not
included with vehicle.)
Launching or Retrieving a Boat or
Personal Watercraft (PWC)
Note: Disconnect the wiring to the trailer
before backing the trailer into the water.
Note: Reconnect the wiring to the trailer
after
removing the trailer from the water.
When backing down a ramp during boat
launching or retrieval:
• Do not allow the static water level to
rise above the bottom edge of the rear
bumper.
• Do not allow waves to break higher
than 6 inches (15 centimeters) above
the bottom edge of the rear bumper.
Exceeding these limits may allow water to
enter vehicle components:
• Causing internal damage to the
components.
• Affecting driveability, emissions, and
reliability.
Any time the rear axle submerges in water,
replace the rear axle lubricant. Water may
contaminate the rear axle lubricant, which
is not a normal maintenance inspection
item unless there is a possibility of a leak
or other axle repair is required.
TOWING THE VEHICLE ON
FOUR WHEELS
Emergency Towing WARNING
If your vehicle has a steering wheel
lock make sure the ignition is in the
accessory or on position when being
towed. 181

insufficient power to restart your engine. The hazard flasher control is
located on the instrument panel
by the radio. Use it when your
vehicle is disabled and is creating a safety
hazard for other motorists. •
Press the flasher control and all front
and rear direction indicators flash.
• Press the flasher control again to turn
them off.
FUEL SHUTOFF WARNING
Failure to inspect and, if necessary,
repair fuel leaks after a collision may
increase the risk of fire and serious
injury. Ford Motor Company recommends
that the fuel system be inspected by an
authorized dealer after any collision. In the event of a moderate to severe
collision, this vehicle includes a fuel pump
shut-off feature that stops the flow of fuel
to the engine. Not every impact will cause
a shut-off.
Should your vehicle shut off after a
collision, you may restart your vehicle. For
vehicles equipped with a push button start
system:
1. Press the START/STOP button to
switch off the ignition.
2. Press the brake pedal (automatic transmission) or the clutch pedal
(manual transmission) and press the
START/STOP
button to switch on the
ignition.
3. Remove your foot from the brake or clutch pedal and press the
START/STOP
button to switch off
the ignition.
4. Press the brake or clutch pedal and the
START/STOP
button, or switch on
the ignition only by pressing the
START/STOP
button without
pressing the brake or clutch pedal. Both
ways re-enable the fuel system.
