driver intent. Follow the prompts in the
information display to initiate line lock.
The following conditions must be met to
initialize line lock:
•
The vehicle is on a level surface.
• The engine is running.
• The vehicle is traveling less than
25 mph (40 km/h).
• Selectable drive mode is not in wet
mode (if equipped).
• There are no electronic stability control
faults.
If you want to cancel line lock once it is
initialized, press the left information
display control. Once initiated, line lock is
prepared for activation and remains
initiated up to 25 mph (40 km/h). If vehicle
speed exceeds 25 mph (40 km/h), line lock
automatically cancels.
Engaging Line Lock
Follow the prompts in the information
display to engage line lock after it is
initialized. To engage, firmly apply the
brakes. Then press the OK button. Once
engaged, release the brake pedal. The
front brakes remain applied and the rear

possible.
Adjustable Camber Front Strut
Top Mounts
(If Equipped)
Your vehicle has adjustable strut mounts
which you can use to adjust the camber of
your vehicle before and after a track event
to the specifications listed in the Road
Course Alignment Recommendations table
previously shown.
Note: After your track day is complete,
return your car to the street alignment and
tire pressures. Aerodynamics
(If Equipped)
Adjustable Rear Wing
The rear wing generates aerodynamic
down-force at speeds greater than 50 mph
(80 km/h)
.
Regularly inspect the rear wing panel and
attachment points for damage or
looseness.
You can adjust the wing using the hole
pattern at the top of the stanchion.
Moving the wing up increases rear down
force and overall understeer. Moving the
wing down decreases the rear down force
and overall understeer.

Rear Gurney Flap
The rear Gurney flap must be removed
for on-road driving.
Your vehicle may include a removable
Gurney flap in the luggage compartment.
The Gurney flap greatly enhances high
speed stability and performance on the
track. It is recommended that you use the
Gurney flap at all tracks featuring high
speed corners and can be used at any track
regardless of cornering speeds.
You could benefit from the removal Gurney
flap to improve low speed balance on
smaller tracks with maximum cornering
speeds below 70 mph (112 km/h). We
recommend that you attach the Gurney
flap for all track events and carefully
assess both the vehicle's condition and
your capability before removal. Note:
The Gurney flap comes with longer
size bolts to install it onto the rear spoiler.
Do not use the longer size bolts without
the Gurney flap attached or damage to
the spoiler may occur.
Catch Can
If you plan to track your vehicle and it did
not come with an oil catch can, we
recommend that you purchase the catch
can kit though your authorized dealer or
Ford Performance Parts Catalog.
Installation instructions are included with
the catch can.
The catch can has a self-draining feature
and does not require any maintenance.
Brake Burnishing
The brakes should be properly burnished
prior to heavy track use. Excessive brake
noise may occur after the track burnish or
track use. Perform this procedure in a safe
manner on dry pavement, and in
compliance with all local and state
ordinances and laws regarding motor
vehicle operation.

How to Burnish the Brakes
Initial low temperature bedding:
•
If your brakes already have 200 mi
(322 km) or more of city driving, skip
this step and go directly to the high
temperature bedding cycle procedure.
Otherwise, perform at least 30 stops
from
50 mph (80 km/h) at 1/3 g
deceleration with 1 mi (1.2 km) spacing
between stops. A deceleration gauge
can be accessed through the
TrackApps menu in your instrument
display.
High temperature bedding cycle:
• Beginning with cool brakes, perform 15
consecutive stops back to back,
accelerating at 3/4 throttle to
80 mph
(128 km/h) and braking to 20 mph
(32 km/h) at 1.0 g deceleration. The
brakes may omit an odor or smoke
during this part of the procedure.
Cool down:
• Cool the brakes down by driving one or
two laps, 5 mi (8 km)
, at 60 mph
(96 km/h) with minimal to no brake
usage.
Recovery low temperature bedding:
• Perform at least 30 stops from 50 mph
(80 km/h)
at 13 g deceleration with
0.7 mi (1.2 km) spacing between stops.
A deceleration gauge can be accessed
through the TrackApps menu in the
instrument cluster display.

Washing Your Vehicle
Note: Do not use a touchless car wash or
any kind of commercial car wash equipment
with front splitter wickers installed.
Note: Always hand wash your vehicle if you
have vinyl stripes.
Do not drive your vehicle through an
automated, commercial car wash due to
the vehicle ’s low ground clearance and tire
width. Wash your vehicle by hand, or by
using a touchless commercial wash with
no mechanical tracks on the floor. Do not
use a power washer or high pressure wand.
To maintain proper cooling and
aerodynamics at high speeds, your vehicle
has heat exchangers integrated with the
front fascia designed to maximize
performance. Do not use a power washer
or high powered spray nozzle as damage
to the cooling fins could occur. Note:
For heavy accumulation of debris or
dirt, clean with a non-metallic soft bristle
car wash brush and warm soapy water as
needed.
CLEANING THE EXTERIOR
Wash your vehicle regularly with cool or
lukewarm water and a neutral pH
shampoo, we recommend Motorcraft
Detail Wash.
• Never use strong household detergents
or soap, for example dish washing or
laundry liquid. These products can
discolor and spot painted surfaces.
• Never wash your vehicle when it is hot
to the touch, or during strong or direct
sunlight.
• Dry your vehicle with a chamois or soft
terry cloth towel to eliminate water
spotting.
• Immediately remove fuel spillages, bird
droppings, insect deposits and road tar.
These may cause damage to your
vehicle ’s paintwork or trim over time.
We recommend Motorcraft Bug and
Tar Remover.

Note: For the base 5-star wheel, you can
identify the correct wheel size by checking
behind the wheel spokes.
To make sure that your tires perform as
intended, it is important that you properly
maintain your tires:
• Your original equipment tires are
optimized for performance in both wet
and dry conditions. We do not
recommend using the original
equipment tires when temperatures
drop to about 45°F (7°C) or below
(depending on tire wear and
environmental conditions) or in snow
and ice conditions.
• The tires were designed for track use
and may exhibit significantly reduced
tread life and increased tire noise
compared to the standard equipment
tires under normal driving conditions.
Increasing the front camber settings
beyond the factory settings may further
accelerate tread wear and induce tire
noise.
• For tire pressures, see the placard
located on the B-pillar inside the driver
door.
• Always maintain your tire pressures
according to the tire information
placard on the driver door jamb, using
an accurate gauge.
• Tire pressures are specified cold and
should be checked after the vehicle has
been parked for at least three hours.
Do not reduce the pressure of warm
tires. •
Check your tire pressure often to
maintain it properly. Tire pressure can
diminish over time and fluctuate with
temperature.
• Do not overload your vehicle.
Maximum vehicle and axle weights are
listed on the tire information placard.
• Extra caution should be taken when
operating the vehicle near its maximum
load, including assuring proper tire
pressure and reducing speeds.
• Extra caution should be taken when
operating on rough roads to avoid
impacts that could cause tire damage.
• In the event that you encounter an
abnormally harsh impact, inspect your
tires for damage.
• Inspect your tires for damage on a
regular basis. If a tire is damaged,
immediately replace it.
• Proper suspension alignment is critical
for maximum performance and
optimal tire wear. If you notice uneven
tire wear, have your alignment checked.
• Rotate tires as recommended in the
tire rotation information. See Tire Care,
in the Wheels and Tires Chapter of the
Owner's Manual.
• Follow the rotation pattern for
"Vehicles equipped with different size
tires on the front and rear axle".
• When replacing tires, the only way to
maintain original performance is to use
the original equipment tire. If a different
tire is used, it should be the same size,
speed rating and load rating and be
replaced as a set of four. Never mix tire
brands.

DIGITAL RADIO (IF EQUIPPED)
Note: HD Radio broadcasts are not
available in all markets.
HD Radio technology is the digital
evolution of analog AM/FM radio. Your
system has a special receiver that allows
it to receive digital broadcasts, where
available, in addition to the analog
broadcasts, it already receives. Digital
broadcasts provide a better sound quality than analog broadcasts with free,
crystal-clear audio and no static or
distortion. For more information, and a
guide to available stations and
programming, please visit
www.hdradio.com.
When HD Radio is on and you tune to a
station broadcasting HD Radio technology,
you may notice the HD Radio logo on your
screen. When this logo is available, you
may also see Title and Artist fields
on-screen.
The multicast indicator appears in FM
mode, only, if the current station is
broadcasting multiple digital broadcasts.
The highlighted numbers signify available
digital channels where new or different
content is available. HD1 signifies the main
programming status and is available in
analog and digital broadcasts. Other
multicast stations, HD2 through HD7, are
only available digitally.
When HD Radio broadcasts are active, you
can access the following functions:
•
Memory presets allow you to save an
active channel as a memory preset.
Touch and hold a memory preset slot
until the sound returns. There is a brief
mute while the radio saves the station.
Sound returns when finished. When
switching to an HD2 or HD3 memory
preset, the sound mutes before the
digital audio plays, because the system
has to reacquire the digital signal.
Note: As with any saved radio station, you
cannot access the saved station if your
vehicle is outside the station ’s reception
area.
