Your vehicle has a front end lift feature
that uses the electronically controlled
suspension hydraulics to lift the front of
the car. You can use this feature for
driveway approaches and speed bumps.
If there is power to this system, use it to lift
the front when loading the car onto a trailer
or a roll back. To operate the front lift, use
the switch in the console.
Note:
The ground clearance on the car at
standard ride height is only 5 in (12 cm). Use
care when moving or loading the car to
make sure it does not bottom out.
Note: The vehicle doors swing both upward
and outward. At the full open position, the
top edge of the door is 67 in (170 cm) from
the ground and swings outward 26 in
(66 cm). Make sure you have the clearance
you need prior to opening the door.
The full undertrays of the vehicle are
carbon fiber, there are no tie down slots.
Use only over the tire straps to tie the car
down for transport.
Getting the Transmission in
Neutral
If the battery loses charge, the
transmission moves to park (P). You can
use the transmission tool to place the car
into Neutral (N). See
Automatic
Transmission (page 100).
Note: If your battery loses charge with the
electric park brake on, you cannot transport
your vehicle until you restore power to your
vehicle to turn off the electric park brake.
TOWING POINTS
Recovery Hook Location

Rear Power Distribution Box 2
The rear power distribution box is in the
engine compartment. See Under Hood
Overview (page 152). It has high-current
fuses that protect your vehicle's main
electrical systems from overloads. These
are in the right side of the engine
compartment behind an access door in the
engine surround panel. If you need to
replace these high-current fuses, see an
authorized dealer. If you disconnect and reconnect the
battery, you need to reset some features.

B
ENGINE OIL CHECK
Note: Use a thick cloth to protect your hand
when removing the oil tank cap and dipstick.
To check the engine oil level consistently
and accurately, do the following:
1. Make sure the parking brake is on. Make
sure the transmission is in park (P) or
neutral (N).
2. Run the engine until it reaches normal operating temperature (Coolant
temperature of 190°F (87.7°C) or
higher).
3. Turn the engine off and wait two to three minutes.
4. Make sure that your vehicle is on level ground.
5. Open the rear hatch. See
Opening
and Closing the Hood (page 150).
6. Unscrew the oil tank cap to remove the
dipstick and wipe it with a clean,
lint-free cloth. See
Under Hood
Overview (page 152). 7. Replace the cap and dipstick and
remove it again to check the oil level.
See
Engine Oil Dipstick (page 153).
8. Make sure that the oil level is between
the minimum and the maximum marks.
If the oil level is at the minimum mark,
add oil immediately. See
Capacities
and Specifications (page 200).
9. If the oil level is correct, replace the cap
and dipstick and make sure it is fully
tightened.
Note: Do not remove the dipstick when the
engine is running.
Note: If the oil level is between the
maximum and minimum marks, the oil level
is acceptable. Do not add oil.
Note: The oil consumption of new engines
reaches its normal level after approximately
3,000 mi (5,000 km)
.
Note: High performance vehicles tend to
be driven in such a way the engine
experiences high speed and high load. As a
result, some oil consumption could occur
between oil changes. We recommend that
you check the oil level on a regular basis.
Adding Engine Oil WARNING:
Do not remove the
filler cap when the engine is running. WARNING:
Do not add engine oil
when the engine is hot. Hot engine oil
can burn you badly.
Note: Use a thick cloth to protect your hand
when removing the oil tank cap and dipstick.
Do not use supplemental engine oil
additives because they are unnecessary
and could lead to engine damage that may
not be covered by the vehicle Warranty.
To top up the engine oil level do the
following:

When Fail-Safe Mode Is Activated
WARNING: Fail-safe mode is for
use during emergencies only. Operate
your vehicle in fail-safe mode only as
long as necessary to bring your vehicle
to rest in a safe location and seek
immediate repairs. When in fail-safe
mode, your vehicle will have limited
power, will not be able to maintain
high-speed operation, and may
completely shut down without warning,
potentially losing engine power, power
steering assist, and power brake assist,
which may increase the possibility of a
crash resulting in serious injury. WARNING:
Never remove the
coolant reservoir cap when the engine is
running or hot.
Your vehicle has limited engine power
when in the fail-safe mode, drive your
vehicle with caution. Your vehicle does not
maintain high-speed operation and the
engine may operate poorly.
Remember that the engine is capable of
automatically shutting down to prevent
engine damage. In this situation:
1. Pull off the road as soon as safely possible and switch the engine off.
2. Contact the Ford GT Concierge to obtain assistance.
See About This
Manual (page 5).
3. If this is not possible, wait a short period for the engine to cool.
4. Check the coolant level. If the coolant level is at or below the minimum mark,
add prediluted coolant immediately.
5. When the engine temperature cools, you can re-start the engine. Have your
vehicle checked as soon as possible to
minimize engine damage. Note:
Driving your vehicle without repair
increases the chance of engine damage.
Engine Coolant Temperature
Management WARNING:
To reduce the risk of
crash and injury, be prepared that the
vehicle speed may reduce and the
vehicle may not be able to accelerate
with full power until the coolant
temperature reduces.
At this time, you may notice the coolant
temperature gauge moves toward the red
zone and a message may appear in the
information display.
You may notice a reduction in vehicle
speed caused by reduced engine power in
order to manage the engine coolant
temperature. Your vehicle may enter this
mode if certain high-temperature and
high-load conditions take place. The
amount of speed reduction depends on
vehicle loading, grade and ambient
temperature. If this occurs, there is no need
to pull off the road. You can continue to
drive your vehicle.
The air conditioning may automatically
turn on and off during severe operating
conditions to protect the engine from
overheating. When the coolant
temperature decreases to the normal
operating temperature, the air conditioning
turns on.
If the coolant temperature gauge moves
fully into the red zone, or if the coolant
temperature warning or service engine
soon messages appear in your information
display, do the following:
1. Pull off the road as soon as safely possible and shift the transmission into
park
(P).
