2021 FORD GT fuel

SelectShift in drive (D):
•
Provides a temporary manual mode
for performing more demanding
maneuvers where extra control of gear
selection is required (for example,
when overtaking). This mode holds a
selected gear for a temporary period
of time dependent on driver inputs (for
example, steering or accelerator pedal
input).
SelectShift in manual (M):
• Provides a permanent manual gear
selection where full control of gear
selection is required.
The instrument cluster displays your
currently selected gear. If a gear is
requested but not available due to vehicle
conditions (low speed, too high engine
speed for requested gear selection), the
current gear flashes two times.

HAZARD FLASHERS
Note: The hazard flashers operate when
the ignition is in any position. If used when
the vehicle is not running, the battery loses
charge. As a result, there may be insufficient
power to restart your vehicle. The hazard flasher control is on
the floor console. Use your
hazard flashers when your
vehicle is creating a safety hazard for other
motorists.
• Press the flasher control and all front
and rear direction indicators flash.
• Press the button again to switch them
off.
FUEL SHUTOFF WARNING: If your vehicle has been
involved in a crash, have the fuel system
checked. Failure to follow this instruction
could result in fire, personal injury or
death.
Note: When you try to restart your vehicle
after a fuel shutoff, the vehicle makes sure
that various systems are safe to restart.
Once the vehicle determines the systems
are safe, then the vehicle allows you to
restart.
Note: In the event that your vehicle does
not restart after your third attempt, contact
a qualified technician.
The fuel pump shutoff stops the flow of
fuel to the engine in the event of a
moderate to severe crash. Not every
impact causes a shutoff.

Rear Power Distribution Box 2
The rear power distribution box is in the
engine compartment. See Under Hood
Overview (page 156). It has high-current
fuses that protect your vehicle's main
electrical systems from overloads. These
are in the right-hand 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.
See Changing the 12V Battery (page 164
).

CHANGING THE 12V BATTERY
WARNING: Battery posts,
terminals and related accessories
contain lead and lead compounds,
chemicals known to the State of
California to cause cancer and
reproductive harm. Wash your hands
after handling
.
The Ford GT uses a lithium Ion battery.
The battery is inside the right front fender.
For battery maintenance or replacement,
contact an authorized dealer.
When a battery replacement is required,
you must use a recommended
replacement battery that matches the
electrical requirements of the vehicle.
Note: If you add electrical accessories or
components to the vehicle, it may adversely
affect the low voltage battery performance
and durability. This may also affect the
performance of other electrical systems in
the vehicle.
Because your vehicle ’s engine is
electronically controlled by a computer,
some control conditions are maintained
by power from the battery. When the
battery is disconnected or a new battery
is installed, the engine must relearn its idle
and fuel trim strategy for optimum
driveability and performance.
To restore the settings, do the following:
1. Apply the parking brake.
2. Shift into park (P) or neutral (N).
3. Switch off all accessories.
4. Press the brake pedal and start your vehicle. 5. Run the engine until it reaches normal
operating temperature. As the engine
is warming up, complete the following:
Reset the clock.
See Audio System
(page 216). Reset the radio station
presets. See Audio System (page 216).
6. Allow the engine to idle for at least one
minute.
7. Drive the vehicle at least 10 mi (16 km)
to completely relearn the idle trim and
fuel trim strategy.
Note: If you do not allow the engine to
relearn the idle and fuel trim strategy, the
idle quality of your vehicle may be adversely
affected until the engine computer
eventually relearns the idle trim and fuel
trim strategy.
Make sure that you dispose of old batteries
in an environmentally friendly way. Seek
advice from your local authority about
recycling old batteries.
Battery Charger and Maintainer
If you plan to have your GT parked or in
storage for more than two weeks without
driving it, connect the Li-Ion compatible
battery charger and maintainer provided.
There are two methods to connect the
charger:
Method 1: Rear Hatch Storage
Compartment Power Point
Your Ford GT has a 12V power point in the
rear hatch storage area that allows you to
conveniently plug in to charge and
maintain your battery.
Note: You can only the use the hatch
storage power point for battery charging.
The one inside the passenger compartment
on the side of the center console will not
work for this purpose.
