Thanks to a popular mix of appearance,
features and power, the 1969-73 Mach 1's
proved to be everyman's muscle car, and
have earned a respected place in Mustang
performance lore. Beyond those classic
years, the Mach 1 carried over for all five
years of the often overlooked 1974-78's
before a hiatus that ended with the
modern and muscular 2003-04's. Mach
1’
s return to the Mustang lineup for 2021
will add a new chapter on modern-day
muscle for this beloved model, and will
cement its rightful place near the very top
of Mustang performance history.

DATA RECORDING WARNING: Do not connect
wireless plug-in devices to the data link
connector. Unauthorized third parties
could gain access to vehicle data and
impair the performance of safety related
systems. Only allow repair facilities that
follow our service and repair instructions
to connect their equipment to the data
link connector.
We respect your privacy and are
committed to protecting it. The
information contained in this publication
was correct at the time of going to print,
but as technology rapidly changes, we
recommend that you visit the regional Ford
website for the latest information. Your vehicle has electronic control units
that have data recording functionality and
the ability to permanently or temporarily
store data. This data could include
information on the condition and status of
your vehicle, vehicle maintenance
requirements, events and malfunctions.
The types of data that can be recorded are
described in this section. Some of the data
recorded is stored in event logs or error
logs.
Note:
Error logs are reset following a service
or repair.
Note: We may provide information in
response to requests from law enforcement,
other government authorities and third
parties acting with lawful authority or
through a legal process. Such information
could be used by them in legal proceedings.
Data recorded includes, for example:
• Operating states of system
components, for example, fuel level,
tire pressure and battery charge level.
• Vehicle and component status, for
example, wheel speed, deceleration,
lateral acceleration and seatbelt
status.
• Events or errors in essential systems,
for example, headlamps and brakes.
• System responses to driving situations,
for example, airbag deployment and
stability control.
• Environmental conditions, for example,
temperature.
Some of this data, when used in
combination with other information, for
example, an accident report, damage to a
vehicle or eyewitness statements, could
be associated with a specific person.

Filling the Fuel Tank
For consistent results when refueling:
•
Switch the ignition off before fueling,
an inaccurate reading results if you
leave the engine running.
• Use the same fill rate,
low-medium-high, each time you fill
the tank.
• Allow no more than one automatic
shut-off when refueling.
Results are most accurate when the filling
method is consistent.
Calculating Fuel Economy
Your vehicle calculates fuel economy
figures through the trip computer average
fuel function. See Information Displays
(page 99).
The first
1,000 mi (1,600 km) of driving is
the break-in period of the engine. The
system obtains a more accurate
measurement after
2,000– 3,000 mi
(3,200–4,800 km).
Keep a record for at least one month and
record the type of driving, for example city
or highway. This provides an accurate
estimate of your vehicle ’s fuel economy
under current driving conditions. Keeping
records during summer and winter shows
how temperature impacts fuel economy.
Conditions Affecting Fuel Efficiency
• Carrying unnecessary weight in your
vehicle may reduce fuel economy.
• Avoid adding accessories that increase
aerodynamic drag to your vehicle such
as bug deflectors, car top carriers and
ski or bike racks.
• Remove empty roof racks and keep
windows shut at high speeds to reduce
wind resistance and fuel use. •
Check and adjust tire pressure
regularly. Underinflated tires increases
fuel consumption.
• Sudden acceleration and braking
degrade fuel efficiency. Drive smoothly
looking as far ahead as possible and
avoid short trips when possible.
• Fuel efficiency degrades with lower
temperatures.
• Comfort features use additional energy
and consume more fuel. Use AC and
other comfort features only when
necessary.
• Using fuel blended with alcohol may
increase fuel consumption.

time before line lock is released
automatically. If you exceed the time limit,
or another vehicle condition requires line
lock to release, the system safely
disengages and normal vehicle function
resumes.
Note:
If you apply the brake pedal while
line lock is engaged, line lock automatically
cancels and normal brake function resumes.
Performance Shift Indicator
The performance shift indicator displays
a row of colored lights that represent
engine RPM.
The performance shift indicator menu
allows you to:
• Choose whether the indicator is shown
on the windshield or information
display.
• Set a shift point within the allowable
RPM range in increments of 100.
• Enable or disable the associated shift
tone, based on the set shift point.
• Set the between off, change with drive
mode, tach, track and drag.
• Set the light intensity. The intensity
adjusts between day time and night
time. Start Option
Allows you to select the type of countdown
the information display shows before
starting an event.
Status Screen
Provides the status of your chosen
performance-related settings.
View/Clear Results
Allows you to view and clear the last and
saved results of the Acceleration Timer,
Brake Performance, and All Time Best
results.
Road Course Alignment
Recommendations
Note:
After your track day is complete,
return your car to the street alignment and
tire pressures.
Note: Using these wheel alignment settings
may cause excessive tire wear. Only use
these settings for racing or competitive
driving. Excessive tire wear is not covered
under the vehicle warranty.
If you plan to participate in road course
track days, we recommend the following
chassis settings for optimal tire wear and
handling performance.
All settings are at curb loading condition
full of fuel.

GENERAL INFORMATION
The recommended tire inflation pressures
are on the tire information label on the
driver side B-pillar.
Check and set the tire pressure at the
ambient temperature in which you are
intending to drive your vehicle and when
the tires are cold.
Note:
Check your tire pressures regularly to
optimize fuel economy.
Only use approved wheel and tire sizes.
Using other sizes could damage your
vehicle and could make the National Type
Approval invalid.
Installation of any tires that are not the
original equipment tire size can cause the
speedometer to display incorrect vehicle
speed.
TIRE SEALANT AND INFLATOR
KIT
Note: The temporary mobility kit contains
enough sealant compound in the canister
for one tire repair only. See your authorized
dealer for replacement sealant canisters.
The kit is under the load floor in the cargo
area. The kit consists of an air compressor
to re-inflate the tire and a canister of
sealing compound that effectively seals
most punctures caused by nails or similar
objects. This kit provides a temporary tire
repair, allowing you to drive your vehicle
up to 120 mi (200 km) at a maximum
speed of 50 mph (80 km/h) to reach a tire
service location. Air compressor (inside).
